Earthquake
bird is a psychological thriller film set in 1989. The film is based on the
book of the same name by Susanna Jones, this is another book which I have on my
to read list but unfortunately did not read before watching the film.
The film follows Lucy Fly, a translator in
Japan, who is suspected of murdering her friend Lily. The film changes between
Lucy’s interview and how her friendship with Lucy began/ progressed. The film
follows the friendship from the day they met, to the moment Lucy becomes the
last person to see Lily alive. The film also explores Lucy’s unusual
relationship with her boyfriend Teiji and how he becomes a main part of Lucy
and Lily’s relationship.
7/10- This
film took a while for me to get into and has quite a slow plot. I also guessed
the ending around halfway through the film, which made the rest of the film
less suspenseful for me. I would recommend watching this, however it was not my
favourite ever film.
