Épisode 48 - Crayon Shin-chan And Nostalgia | Video Essay
10 octobre 2020
Accented Cinema - Episode 46 Crayon Shin-chan is a hugely popular series in the East, but for some reason, relatively unknown in the west. It's a natural fit for this channel. Yet, at the same time, this series has been extremely personal to me. It helped me through the most depressing period of my life. To talk about it, would mean I'd have to talk about myself, open myself up in uncomfortable ways. But... there is no better time to talk about this film than now. With so many people struggling in 2020, perhaps it is my turn to help you, just the way this film helped me many years ago. ------------------------------------------ Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AccentedCinema Follow us on Social Media! https://www.facebook.com/AccentedCinema/ https://twitter.com/AccentedCinema
