Vish View


I am not a fan of anthology,but I am a fan of anime-exactly the reason why I watched this Netflix Original movie.
These are simple stories which will takes us back to our childhood...Stories that will bring back the memories of our grandparents,friends and first love.I remembered my grandmother and my first love as I was watching 'The Rice Noodles'.Sadly both of them are not with me anymore....But there is a happiness in that pain too........ 

This is my favorite anthology film till date.
A beautiful experience...
