14 That Night
In 1987, frustrated junior high student Takashi hates his uncool father hanging around their suburban home all the time, and is pestered by the area’s wannabe gangsters. But he’s interested in the girl next door, the bounteously-breasted Megumi. One day, Takashi hears a rumor that porn actress Kyoko Yokushimaru is coming to town for an autograph session at the only video store in town where Takashi and his judo friends always hang out. Their ridiculous but serious adventure begins. What will Takashi find after all the surprises and chaos? Recalling youth classics like Stand By Me, this is the debut feature of Shin Adachi, Japan Academy Prize-winning screenwriter of 100 Yen Love.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a coming-of-age tale on the contrast between childish innocence and adult themes. It relies on a warm, yet unsentimental gaze, exploring how awkward and humorous moments forge character.
What lingers after viewing is a genuine, funny snapshot of a time when the world revolved around a video store and the greatest adventure could fit into a single day. — MovieFinder Editorial
