I Love You So Much

Synopsis

The Sagami family has been running an Edo-style woodworking shop in downtown Tokyo for generations. The head of the family, Bunzo (Kunie Tanaka), has received official recognition for his craftsmanship, but business remains modest. He lives with his wife, Sumiko (Masumi Harukawa), their divorced eldest daughter, Naomi (Rino Katase), and their heir, Seiichi (Hiroyuki Sanada). One day, Seiichi tells his parents that he has someone he wants them to meet—his former junior in school, Yuko Ogata (Anna Nakagawa). Yuko admires traditional woodworking and dreams of marrying into the trade. Stunned yet delighted, Bunzo and Sumiko are thrown into a whirlwind of emotions. The next day, Yuko arrives at the Sagami home, setting the stage for an unexpected turn of events.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
