Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
The title of this film, "Hot Summer Winds", made it somewhat hard to find. A different title, maybe something like "The Hired Hand" would have been easier. I think this title was taken by another...

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
Thank you KEVP. The more I think about it, the more I question my memory. It's likely that I got the time frame wrong and I did indeed see this movie in the early 90s. I watched a different movie in...

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
Ok, the actress who played the girl/daughter in this movie, Tricia Joe, was born in 1978. This means this movie was made about 1990. Unfortunately, in 2021 she was killed in a car accident at the age...

Thank you wositelec, the story line is exactly the same as the movie I'm thinking of. There are some differences, perhaps I don't remember as well as I thought. Could this have been released around...

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
Thanks wositelec and OHforums,
This looks like a very interesting movie, I'm going to make a point to watch it. Having said that, this movie was released in 1991, well after my teenage years. This...

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
Wositelec, I don't think I got it wrong. Obviously 1970 was 54 years ago. We'll see how things turn out, my friend.

I looked at the story line of "When spring comes late". That's not it. As I remember it, they we're well-spoken actors using English. Obviously, everyone was North American. Since the setting was in...

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
wositelec, you said,
"Perhaps it is hidden in IMDB filters and it wasn't too popular."
That could very well be the case.

No, not snow falling on cedars. That was not a made for TV movie and it was released in the 1990, I believe.

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
No, it's not "Koya no toseinin". The movie I'm thinking of is set in the states. The actors all spoke English.

Re: A made for TV movie about a Japanese farm family.
Yes, the entire family was Japanese and the hand was white. I don't remember what they grew. As far as a genre, I guess you would call it a drama. Does anyone have any ideas?
