A young woman’s body is found by a roadside in the Japanese countryside. Police immediately look for the last person to have seen her, an obnoxious and spoilt young socialite who took her for drive despite his distaste for her. When he is apprehended and an alibi proves his innocence, the focus turns to an admirer of hers who has long tried to befriend her on the internet. The said man is Yuichi, a lonely, troubled worker who looks after his grandmother in distant solitude.
Villain (a.k.a. Akunin) is one of 2010's most brilliant dramas. The pace of the plot is perfect, and the aforementioned crime is pieced together more and more as the story progresses. Great actors and suitable music composed by Joe Hisaishi (Studio Ghibli).
