Viewer summary & review [excerpted from full text],
The Uchouten Hotel, is, like the name suggests ("uchouten" means something like "to be beside oneself with joy") an extremely fast-paced, incredibly hysterical comedy by Koki Mitani (who also wrote and directed "Warai no Daigaku") about a very busy New Year's Eve in the five star Avanti hotel.
The comedy varies from situational comedy to elements of typical Japanese slapstick and spiced up with unexpected turnouts and embarrassing cock-ups for the main characters.


...
AND a great film to go with this would be Cape No. 7. It is a movie about one of the many teachers who left Taiwan at the end of the war and left a girl behind and how they made a connections many years later and the relationship between the two countries. Languages used are Taiwanese, Chinese and Japanese.
