Comment on 2005 august Grazia magazine: “Nice woman” theory (Original HSE) by Petra

Petra — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 21:41:07 +0000

It is a very nice article. I know several people like are described here, modesty, warm, charming. I´m trying to learn from them. It is not very easy process. It took several years, and I know, it will take much more. Then I will be, maybe once, such like they are. Happy from small things, even from every day of my life, satisfied and insinde in peace. That is my target and I just hope, I will be able to catch it before I die.
I´m also happy, that I read it, because I just saw Aegis several days before and have to say, I was dissapointed. I expected some movie like Under Siege with Steven Seagal, just in japanese version. And that was the problem. I expected well trained martial artist, who will fight with the whole army just with hands. And…nothing. Just a normal man, who cannot breathe, when he is running. But after I read this article, I will try to look at it again by antoher eyes. Can I ask for some help? I have a film in japanese version with english titles and there is one scene in the end, when some lady is gping to the cemetry with flowers and is speaking to somebody, who is burnied. There is probably name, written on the grave, but in japanese and it is not translated. Can you write me, what is there written, please?
What I can say, and what I like in every Sanadaś movie, is his nice behaving. He, usually, dóesn´t shout, he is not upset or angry. Even he is a policeman, for ex. in Shinjuku Same. He is always calm, but not strict, calm and nice. Always. Thank you for these films. And one more thing, what I really appreciate, Aegis and Shinjuku Same are films, when he doesn´t die in the end. Because in many other films he does.

Comment on Happy 50th Birthday Hiro! by T. Jung

I guess a BELATED Happy Birthday would be more appropriate for Hiro, sorry I just found this site. What a wonderful actor. I have watched The Last Samauri so many times I have lost count. For whatever reason, I feel cosmically connected to this movie, it is my favorite movie of all time. My connection goes far beyond my affinity for the Asian culture as my adopted Father was full blooded Chinese born in the states. I was once told that I was Asian in a past life, and one that bound her feet, can someone say OUCH. Even though my strong connection to this movie escapes my understanding, I do know saying it is a strong connection is a major understatement. Maybe some time during my eternalness it will be revealed to me.

Comment on Misty review of Aegis (book and movie) by anna

Thank you very, very much for the translation and comments, Misty. It is always worth to read precise “extras” of a movie, mostly if it is so much intriguing like this one. I loved it since the first time I saw it – and it had no subtitles then! – and got all the power of the feelings of all the characters involved, and all the interferences with the political/historical situation of the time, even if I am living quite fareaway. I consider it one of those masterpieces that put a mark in history, showing an exact point in the times it appeared. Sanada san is definitely convincing. As usual he is amazingly changed to give body and voice to the man he plays. Anyway, he is perfectly supported by all the others. It seems a giants’ performance.

Comment on Misty’s review Tabloid t.v. drama by Liz Mannion

Liz Mannion — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 13:40:53 +0000

This looks like an intoxicating drama. Wow he is super as a tortured soul. A master of the facial expression, his eyes could cut like a Katana. Hiro is unbelievably hot and sexy in this drama and his bedroom eyes are to die for, cute overbite- lips need a big kiss though because he is so so sad. Love Hiro big time.
