Today I would simply like to bring you a Christmas film recommendation. It was in turn recommended to me by one of my sons.

Tokyo Godfathers is a Japanese anime with noodle bowls full of soul, humanity and humour. For me it is a perfect seasonal film and we will be watching it with whoever happens to be home on Christmas eve.

However, I don’t know how or where you could get hold of it. You might need some of those tricky tricks that the young guy and gals possess, like some kind of automatic generational inheritance.

It’ll be out there somewhere though. Worth finding.

Like a Christmas star waiting to be seen for the very first time.
