Exclusive Postcards for "5 Centimeters Per Second" Revival Screening
It has finally been decided that some very special postcards will be given as presents for the visitors who come to the revival screening of the legendary animated movie 5 Centimeters Per Second. This news has already created quite a bit of buzz among the fans who have been waiting to see this masterpiece on the big screen again. If you are a fan of heart-touching stories, you'd know that 5 Centimeters Per Second is a must-watch film that stays with you for a long time.
Present for visitors to the revival screening of “5 Centimeters Per Second”
The postcard actually depicts a very emotional scene in which Akari and Takaki, both shown as young children, are facing each other across a railroad crossing. The cherry blossom petals are dancing all around them, making it look very beautiful but also a bit sad. Interestingly, this particular scene is only included in the PV for the theme song "One more time, One more chance" and it actually does not appear in the main movie itself. This makes the postcard a very rare collectible for the hardcore fans.
A Journey Through Time and Distance
Originally released in 2007, 5 Centimeters per Second is a work that really defined director Makoto Shinkai's unique style. At this revival screening, they are also showing a 13-minute special video where Shinkai and his production staff look back at the old days. They will be reminiscing about their memories at the actual filming locations, which is quite a treat for anyone interested in the behind-the-scenes magic. Also, movie tickets based on the letter sent from Akari to Takaki are being sold at some select theaters. You can even grab advance tickets online at Meijer and MOVIE WALKER STORE if you want to be sure about your seat.
