Description
Living On Tokyo Time is a 1987 independent romantic comedy written and directed by Steven Okazaki, billed on the cover as "a new American comedy." It follows Kyoko, a young Japanese woman who wants to stay in America. She enters a marriage of convenience with Ken, a Japanese-American rock guitarist whose junk-food, rock 'n' roll lifestyle leaves him feeling little connection to his heritage. The result is an offbeat 1980s culture-clash story that mixes romance and deadpan humor. The film stars Minako Ohashi and Ken Nakagawa. This is the VHS release from Charter Entertainment, a Farallon Films production. It comes in a cardboard slipcase with the red clock-motif cover art and the tagline "She came to America and found the three R's." The film is rated R, runs approximately 83-85 minutes per the packaging, and is presented in color with Hi-Fi Mono sound.
