DESCRIPTION:\n	Dir. Ken Ochiai. 2014\, 103 min. With Seizo Fukumoto\, Chihi
 ro Yamamoto\, Hiroki Matsukata. In Japanese with English subtitles. A love
  song to the unsung heroes of Japanese jidaigeki (period) films\, Uzumasa 
 Limelight stars the legendary Seizo Fukumoto (The Last Samurai) as Kamiyam
 a\, an aging actor faced with the dying of an art to which he has dedicate
 d his life. After hundreds of deaths over dozens of years playing kirare-y
 aku—a professional extra in samurai films and series who customarily dies 
 at the hands of the lead star—opportunities are drying up along with the p
 ublic's interest. Using Charlie Chaplin’s Limelight as an underlying theme
 \, Ochiai's film reaches lovingly into the past while also facing the real
 ities of the present\, and of the next generation\, with heart and soul. '
 Sweet and simple. Directing with an old-fashioned tenderness toward his un
 assuming star\, Ken Ochiai conjures a swan song to a waning art form and t
 hose who practice it\,' wrote Jeannette Catsoulis\, The New York Times. \n
