【Burned in madder color】Released in 2021

[Burned in red] Released in 2021

I choose movies as a movie director, and the only person who is conscious of the producer is Jerry Bruckheimer of “Top Gun” (laughs). Even so, recently, Mitsunobu Kawamura, a person who was conscious of the producer for the first time, who was listed as a producer in common with the movies he watched and the movies he watched, passed away.

I think that he was the one who entrusted the completion of the movie by selecting a director who can plan and shape it properly, but the movies introduced are also “The Notebook to Read”, “Wrestler”, “I can’t breathe” etc. It was really good.

For the past 10 years, I have been devoted to Japanese movies, and recently I think that many people have been moved by watching “The Journalist” starring Tori Matsuzaka.

Today I would like to introduce “Akane-colored Burn” released last year.

Mother-in-law Yoshiko (Machiko Ono), a mother and child who lost her husband in an unreasonable traffic accident seven years ago, does not receive compensation from the perpetrator and takes care of her father-in-law while working at the flower department of the supermarket and night customs I managed to live with my junior high school son Junpei (Wadaan).

Her mother behaved patiently without showing her anger and sadness in her chest to her son, who cares for her mother despite being humiliated by her son. I am living.

Machiko Ono performed well with Ryoko screaming what the socially vulnerable were.

What she did not let go of her parents and children who struggled desperately to get out of the vulnerable.

The theme of the movie is hotter than the title, it’s clean and intense, but it makes me feel kind after watching it.

Masatoshi Nagase and Yuki Katayama set aside.

This time I may get angry, but I will attach a trailer.https://youtu.be/OBDnn1qgyzU

【Metal Lords】2022Netflix　Work

High school hunters (AdrianGreensmith) and Kevin (Jaeden Lieberher) who like heavy metal seek a bassist to form a band and enter the contest, but they have few friends and no one around them wants to play metal music. Every day I couldn’t find a student and practiced by playing the guitar and drums alone. Kevin on drums invites her companion to learn that the weirdo Emily (Isis Hainworth), who is taking tranquilizers to control her anger due to stress, can play the cello. She decided to add a cello instead of a bass and aim to win as a three-piece band. The addition of Emily cracks the friendship between Hunter and Kevin, and the band goes in the wrong direction. The director Peter Sollet of “Hands of Love” is fiercely harmonizing with the two men who are humorously trying to become a metal road and Emily, a cut character, until the promised last concert. It will charm you nicely. Heavy metal youth told like a parable in modern America. A little public about having lived without being interested in heavy metal.

[At that time. ] Published in 2021 Speaking of otaku, I think of Hachiro Taku, but when I search for it, it’s a name that refers to enthusiasts, but I think that it will change slightly depending on whether you are an otaku or an enthusiast. The stage is the story of adults who are crazy about Hello! Project idols in Osaka in 2004. I wasn’t so interested in Morning Musume and Aya Matsuura that I didn’t even know the word Hello! Project, but I enjoyed watching it. Makoto (Matsuzaka Tori), who has failed to take the university entrance exam and has no girlfriend, is a dull young man who lives without a hitch while eating instant food every day. One day, when I saw Aya Matsuura’s music video that I got from a friend, I became absorbed in the idol of Hello! We will form a “love club” with them and work hard to raise awareness of idols at talk events and other events. Still, time goes by, and when you leave one person, you gradually become separated from another person. Even so, when Cosmin got sick, my friends reunited and my nostalgic days came back. Takashi Yamanaka who plays otaku, Tateto Serizawa, Oga Nakano and others weave otaku patterns, and the enthusiasm of acting that even I, who is not interested in Hello! An idiot movie that can be said to be a ridiculous and honorable mention. When I finished watching it, it was salty at that time.

[The Last Picture Show] Released in 1971 The other day, director Peter Bogdanovich passed away. “Paper Moon” was good, but I can’t forget this “Last Show”. It’s unclear which one I saw first, but it’s a masterpiece as an oldies fashion movie along with 60’s “American Graffiti”, but for some reason it’s a closed Texas inland area rather than the glamorous youth of Califulnia. I was attracted to the style of young people and watched it. Even though it was black and white, the checkered shirt, Hawaiian shirt, G Jean, and high rise pants of Civil Shaper had a navel look, which left a brilliant impression on me as a high school student. .. (Not real time) I became interested in the 50’s style and tried on the shirts and trousers I wore when my father was young, and when I saw the clothes of my older sisters JUN and VAN, I became resentful. is. The story is about high school students such as Sony (Timothy Potoms) who are young in the remote countryside of Texas where entertainment facilities are only movie theaters and pool halls, and Sam (Lion Sam), the owner of the facility, which is trusted by all the townspeople. Ben Johnson) is the center of the story of the town becoming lonely. This movie gives a glimpse of the disparity society before the Korean War and before the Vietnam War in Amegra, but I wonder if there is a similar town in the modern United States where the disparity is serious and the crisis in Ukraine and Taiwan is approaching. I will.

As an aside, Tom Ford is from Texas, isn’t he?

Asakusa Kid] Now available on Netflix from 202112/9

Isn’t there one person who can be said to be a master?

This movie vividly depicts the young days spent by the comedy mogul Beat Takeshi with Senzaburo Fukami, the only entertainer on the stage in Asakusa.

The French theater in Asakusa, which sells elegant strips centered on dance and laughter conte between the intermissions.

The center of laughter in the 70’s is Takeshi (Yuya Yagira), an elevator boy who longs for Fukami (Yo Oizumi) who plays a sharp conte in the theater alone while moving to TV such as Conte55 and Drifters.

With the rise of television, the number of customers in the management of the French theater is declining and leaning as if it is inversely proportional to Takeshi, who has successfully become a disciple and mastered tap dancing.

I picked up this movie because I want to watch such a movie that makes me laugh and cry on New Year’s Day, but I can’t watch this movie at the cinema. I think we have entered a new era where we can’t watch movies even though they are movies, but it seems that Japanese movie companies have been reluctant to do so because the planning, script, and director are the only theater companies.

The reason why Japanese movies are not good is that we cannot sponsor such a masterpiece.

I have no connection with Netflix, but it costs 990 yen a month, and it’s good enough to watch this movie and cancel it.

We hope you all have a good year.

[Last night in Soho] Released in 2021 The last time was a dora picture, so this time I will introduce a pretty cool movie. Eloise (Thomas Mackenzie), who lives with her grandmother in her countryside, enrolls in a design school in Soho, London to become a fashion designer. Seen as a redneck and curious, Ayrose is unfamiliar with dormitory life, and an old woman begins living alone in the attic of an old landlord’s apartment. Inspired, Ayrose travels back in time to Soho in the late 1960s in her dream on her first day to meet Sandy (Anya Tiller-Joy), who dreams of being a singer. Eloise, who longs for London in the 1960s, sympathizes with Sundi chasing his dreams, and while he goes out to Soho in the 1960s many times in his dreams, he becomes physically and mentally synchronized with Sandy. , Reality and dreams will be mixed ,. The footage directed by Edgar Wright, a genius who pays homage to 60’s UK movies and music, is retro and stylish, and dramatically develops with UK 60’s sounds such as Cilla Black and The Who, making it an unbearable movie for retro lovers. It has become. If you want to see it but you are scared and haven’t seen it, please think that you have been deceived and watch it. I promise that you can leave the movie theater comfortably.

Basically, I’m comfortable with old music, so I usually listen to old songs without feeling nostalgic.
This time, in memory of Olivia Newton-John, “Have You Never Been Mellow”. In terms of generations, I have memories of Olivia who was a little fierce in a leotard, but this is a hit song from 1975 before that.
A long time ago, when I was young, I spent a lot of time out at night, and one day I was sleepy and tired and wanted to go home, but I couldn’t go home until the first train started. Then, suddenly, this song with a completely different atmosphere from before was played. After dawn, morning came. “What a lovely song! Oh, I can finally go home!”
I fell in love with this song because the gap between the refreshing singing voice in the dark space was even more refreshing, and it healed my heart.
Memories are different for each person, but from now on, I want to listen to this song and feel at ease when I’m tired of overdoing it ♪

Normally, it should be in the middle of the rainy season at this time, but this year is the earliest end of the rainy season in the history of observation, so summer came suddenly without being prepared.
I was thinking about another song related to rain in the music column, but I changed it.

From the 1977 album “Lady Wants to Know” by Michael Franks, who has a soothing singing voice that is soothing in the hot summer.

It seems that the chilly sound that starts from the cool intro also relaxes the hot and rugged expression.

It’s a song that you want to listen to without thinking about anything while drinking cold herbal tea ♪

“Rainy Days And Mondays”

I’m here, the rainy season. It’s been raining a lot since spring this year, so I wonder if it’s a long time until the end of the rainy season. I wish the rain was a fun event.

If you look at the benefits of a rainy day

・ Humidity protects skin from dryness
・ The sound of rain has a relaxing effect and calms the mind.
・ Pollen does not fly
・ The light looks gentler and the colors look more beautiful than in fine weather.

And so on, it seems that there are some things that make me happy.

Today is “Rainy Days and Mondays” (1971) from among the many famous songs of the Carpenters.

It’s a song that I’ve heard from nowhere since I was a kid, but when I listen to it again, I listen to it. Harmonica and saxophone also add to the feeling of melancholy.

It’s a song that you want to listen to honestly and moistly without trying to cheer up on a gloomy rainy day ♪

Do you have a time when you are asked for your age or cannot answer immediately when you fill it out?
Well, how many are I now? What is this phenomenon that has been going on for some time?

“Lolita Go Home / 1975”
This song was the first to hear the cover (’84) of Asami Kobayashi (still very nice) who was cool at that time. It was very impressive and I could sing immediately, only the chorus part.
Since then, I’ve grown up a lot, but even now, I feel happy when I listen to it.
I want to keep the feelings of those days even as I get older.
In addition to Jane Birkin’s cute singing voice, the guitar is also cool ~ ♪

Now that the Saraware shop is 25 years old since it opened in 1997, I am very honored to be able to welcome customers at the shop. Thank you very much.

Twenty-five years ago, I … retired from my first job and was wandering around. It was also in 1997 that I was interviewed for a part-time job at a snack in the city with the tag “Membership Club” on the entrance door and got fired on the first day.

I think it was destined to meet Saraware ten years later. What?

This time, the same 1997 album, American guitarist Ry Cooder revived and produced “Buena Vista”, a veteran Cuban singer and musician who was once active on the front lines, whom he met in Cuba while traveling.・ From “Social Club”.

The album title was the name of an existing membership-based music club, which became their band name, and then a documentary film was released.

One song from such a wonderful album.

“AMOR DE LOCA JUVENTUD”. In Japanese, it means “sloppy love in youth”, but it’s a song that makes you feel happy.

In March, the sun became brighter toward spring, and when I thought it was warm, it snowed, it was blown by strong winds, the cold returned, and so on. Is it yes?
The Japanese title of “Aguas de Marco” is “March Rain”.
The duet with Elis Regina is a very famous song by Antonio Carlos Jobim, a musician who represents Brazilian music, but this time I would like to listen to Elis’s solo version (1972).
It seems that March is the end of summer in Brazil, but the laid-back melody feels like March in Japan! The cherry blossom season has finally begun and I want to relax and enjoy the arrival of spring ♪
