Looking for movie...based on "If I had...I could have..

Postby spidey » June 27th, 2008 7:35 am

I heard one of the female Japanese teachers mention an interesting movie.

I don't recall the name of the Japanese movie, but she said it was based on a series of mishaps.

The main actor said, "If had not gotten up late I could have caught the right train.

I could have been on time. I could have done...

The actor kept saying this throughout the story.

I'm wonder if anyone knows the name of this movie.

THANKS

I believe the movie mentioned is called "Sliding Doors". It's an American movie:

Which, coincidentally was showing on the plane the last time I went to Japan. In fact, I mis-remembered it as being brilliant so told my girlfriend to watch it. Then I started watching it after she did and re-remembered that it's terrible, even though I am a total sucker for British romantic comedies (eg. Notting Hill, Bridget Jones, etc.).
