After watching the trailer of Shun's new movie... I've fallen in love with him all over again. <3 Whaa, can't wait till it's out on dvd!!! Ups, forgot to post the story! Based on the 1922 short story In a Grove by Ryunosuke Akutagawa, which recounted a single event from 7 different perspectives after the fact. Akira Kurosawas award-winning 1950 film Rashomon was also based on In a Grove, but this version changes things up by focusing on the bandit character Tajomaru and giving him a whole new back-story. Plot: Naomitsu (Oguri Shun) is the second son of the Hatakeyama family and fiance of Princess Ako (Shibamoto Yuki). When he gets chased away from his home as the result of a conspiracy against him, Naomitsu flees into the mountains with Ako in tow, but theyre soon attacked by a bandit named Tajomaru (Hiroki Matsukata). After managing to kill Tajomaru, Naomitsu takes the bandits identity as his own. Hm... this sounds like something I know... Some movie about the 5 passionest kisses with Peter Falk as the story-teller... Ah, got it! The Princess Bride! There the guy takes on the role of a pirate. Tags: jmovie, oguri shun, video of the day
