VHS Kumiko Rinko Kikuchi

Kumiko Rinko Kikuchi: Not 29-year-old Kumiko Rinko Kikuchi , the sad dreamer of Kumiko, The Treasure Hunter . She sees opportunity, a chance to reboot her dull life as a Tokyo office tea server by finding the fortune shes certain lies waiting for her in America. She repeatedly watches a faded VHS copy of Fargo , searching for clues and planning an expedition. She calls herself a modern version of the Spanish Conquistadors, who sought gold in the New World, according to The Star. Film festivals pride themselves on presenting unusual viewpoints. But Sundance 2014 was particularly adept at this, premiering exciting works by indie filmmakers that subverted expectations and genre formulae and Most viewers see desperation when Steve Buscemi buries a briefcase full of cash in a snowdrift in Fargo , the 1996 Coen Bros. fictional crime satire. Kumikos unique vision makes for humour and pathos in David Zellners film, one of the standouts among the movies I saw at the 2014 edition of the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, which ends Jan. 26.
