I dropped this after about 40 minutes. At first the story has trouble deciding if it's a thriller or old age drama. The lack of chemistry between the leads is distracting. You don't get the feel they're newly weds, not even that they share a history. Then, while already under suspicion for murder by circumstance, heavily in debt on paper and having stolen a bunch of cash that apparently didn't get noticed by the police investigation, the smarter of the two, without hesitation, offers to pay for the cremation, when the nice police lady brings it up. If people really are that stupid, they deserve every bad thing that's coming to them, so I'm no longer interested on what comes and how it affects them. Sorry for the actors, I think you tried, but this story just doesn't work.

NOTE: This is a French *edited* version of the 1995 original anime film by Akinori Nagaoka, which is listed as some minutes longer (102, while the France edit is cut down to 88). The edited version also replaced the original musical score with a more orchestral soundtrack. First shown in 1999 via festivals (some with an English dub), then released on DVD in 2000 with French audio & English subtitles, it took a while for an official English dub to be released next, but a trailer was posted on YouTube in April of 2015. The edited film with an English-audio dub was finally made available for free on YouTube as of May 2020. The "original" title in the info on TMDB is incorrectly in English but locked; the English should be in the "translated title" spot. It's in French on a poster though: Le Journal d'Anne Frank.More...
