When a girl just refuses to commit
Let me tell you what’s wrong with most chick flicks: They’re hard on real chicks. Here we are, overworked and stressed, between relationships or roughing one out, jilted and depressed or stable and bored. What we want is a little excitement, some peace and maybe a tiny bit of vindication. And granted, the chick flick typically gives us all that — but usually all that does is make things worse. What with all those thin, gorgeous characters and their spacious apartments, idealized (if eventually unfaithful) boyfriends and clever sidekick girlfriends, not to mention the kind of wardrobe (size XS of course) that Lindsay Lohan would steal in a flash, you wind up feeling more damaged than healed.

“Wilhelm Sasnal: 16 mm films”
Rat Hole GalleryCloses June 6
A snowman on fire, women dancing on a car and the chopped-off roof of a vehicle used as a skate ramp are just some of the countless startling images encountered in the “16 mm films” exhibition of Wilhelm Sasnal.
Summer fun during Golden Week
The Hotel New Otani Tokyo will open its outdoor pool during the Golden Week holidays, from April 29 to May 5.
Covering 2,000 sq. meters, the garden pool Maitai is 25 meters long with a 3-meter-deep diving pool and a 50-cm-deep children’s pool.
Teenage rivalry with real girl power
Women warriors have been a feature of Japanese films for decades, from Meiko Kaji’s revenge-bent heroine in “Shurayuki Hime” (Lady Snowblood, 1973) — a major inspiration for Quentin Tarantino’s “Kill Bill” — to Haruka Ayase’s sword-wielding shamisen player in “Ichi” (2008).
Hardly any of their exploits, however, have been based on any sort of reality. Also, their fans have been mostly men who, for whatever reason, like watching glinty-eyed beauties slice up bad guys.
“Yuka Shimada & Julia Vuori Picture Book Art Exhibition: The World of Bam & Kero, And Sika”
Though based respectively in Canada and Finland, picture-book artists Yuka Shimada and Julia Vuori struck up a friendship after Shimada discovered Vuori’s illustrations at the Bologna Children’s Book Fair Illustrators Exhibition, which was held in Tokyo some 20 years ago.
“Bam & Kero” is a popular series of picture books by Shimada that features warm-hearted and playful animal characters in colorful, bold tones. Vuori’s “SIKA” series of books features a pig who lives in the city, illustrated using similar colors.
“Glittering of Imagination: The Visionary World Of Surreal And Fantasy”
The Surrealism movement, which began in Europe in the early 1920s, was an attempt by artists and writers to release and express the creative potential of humans’ unconscious mind.
Artists used unusual juxtapositions of motifs and bizarre imagery to stimulate the viewers’ imagination and lure them into a world of unreality.
Hotter days, bigger dining discounts
Summer has started and the temperature and humidity in Tokyo is high. The Peninsula Tokyo welcomes the season by offering a special dinner discount called Heating Things Up. Every Sunday, Monday and Tuesday through Aug. 30, the highest temperature reached each day will be the rate of the discount for dinner. For example, if the temperature hits 35 degrees Celsius, the discount is 35 percent.
At 1 p.m. on the given days, the hotel will confirm the day’s temperature on its website. The temperature posted will be applied as the percent of the discount when dining at Peter, Peter: The Bar, Hei Fung Terrace and The Lobby.
