Last March 5th the Academy had the award ceremony and here are some winners.

Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role: Ken Watanabe in 沈まぬ太陽 Shizumanu taiyô (The Unbroken), Setsuro Wakamatsu

Outstanding Foreign Language Film: Gran Torino, Clint Eastwood

To check the winners in all categories please go here if you understand Japanese or here to read them in English.

Think will watch the winner because I do enjoy Ken Watanabe performances, but I expect the story to be hard to watch. Still could be interesting to find how a Japanese filmmaker does this kind of story. I'll tell you what the story is about: "Based on the 1985 plane crash that caused 520 deaths, the worst aviation event in Japanese history".
