Letters from Iwojima
I at last watched DVD of the movie "Letters from Iwojima" last night. (well... actually it was very early morning today) Although of course I knew the film was directed by Clint Eastwood, it looks like a Japanese local film to me.
The story is... based on kinda famous story of General Kuribayashi Tadamichi, but attracts many Arashi fans all over the world because of Ninomiya's appearance. I'm not intending to offend those Arashi (or Nino) fans, to me Watanabe Ken and Ihara Tsuyoshi's dominating presences are much more impressive, Nino is better than Matsujun in acting, though.
By the way, this sounds strange even to many of us, Iwo Jima is a part of Tokyo, although it's over 1,000km away from us.
