I really enjoyed the movie, but I did have to rewatch the last scene and I still don't know if I fully understand the meaning behind the ending scene. I don't mind it being left open ended like that, and as I rewatched scenes I do appreciate all the foreshadowing that was placed throughout the movie. I agree though, that if it were a drama they could expand on Mogami's family's story and then it might have been easier to decipher. From the above comments, I hadn't realized that this was a book, and that would explain the feeling that a lot of information was packed in there - in light of that I guess it did pretty well as a movie.
You're right, the lip smacking thing wasn't all that relevant but maybe they had just been super impressed with Nino's ad lib. That was also one of my favourite scenes because Nino really brought the intensity to that scene, which I could really appreciate more when I saw it in context.
Yeah idk about that positioning post sex. Maybe this was a compromise for not being able to show any more intimacy between an Arashi member and an actress than that one kiss scene.
