ok nm.. i saw all of em.. *watching the blue clip* oh hhhhaayyyyyyyyllllllLLLL no! hes not kissing her
jk.. the blue & red zip are the same but thanks for uploading them
anyway, i found this review:
BRIGHT FUTURE (Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Japan, 2003) The master of metaphor returns, and if the bewildered response at last year's Cannes fest is any indication, unimaginative critics aren't ready for his jelly. A male melodrama with father-son and homo-romantic undercurrents, and a kill-your-boss workplace koan that grants interest to repeat viewers, Bright Future reconfigures Kurosawa's persistent philosophical interest in charisma – this time the allure has a sting that might or might not be deadly. Paternal figure Tatsuya Fuji bears an uncanny resemblance to the director, while newcomer Jo Odagiri alternates between James Dean-isms and a Sal Mineo-like crush on towelette factory coworker Tadanobu Asano. (In the latter case, who can blame him?) The Godard-pop set decoration includes a Kramer vs. Kramer soundtrack, while bizarre glam-dandy costume design turns emotion into fashion. Just as video has freed Apichatpong Weerasethakul's wacky commercial instincts, it helps Kurosawa get in touch with the youth inside – looking back at a generation striving forward, the final shot is, as they say, one for the ages. Sun/7, 7:30 p.m., PFA; Tues/9, 7 p.m., Kabuki. (Huston)
not sure if this has been brought up, if so my bad, but has anyone seen this? and j/w the pic where he looked like a greaser with a funky twirly hair.. is that what theyre talking about "james dean-ish"? _________________

anyway for the other question, i already knew him on kamen rider, but i noticed him more on satorare.. bec. the story relates to me for some reason, how emotional he is and that he had no friends.. (i was a transfer student in my senior year in hs.. and i was a loner ) so yeh, then near the end when he cried.. i was like bawling too.. damn.. that guy can act! and his major cuteness gives a warm tingly in my heart.. hahah i know corny!
after that, i started looking for his stuff, movies, magazine ads or anything i can find about him. im still trying to get a hold of the other roles he was in..
but for now, im currently watching shinsegumi on saturdays hehe
think he really acted well in satorare. it set me thinking what i'll do if i realise i'm a satorare! cried again when watching tentai...the way he called out for his girlfriend...
where do you get mag ads of him? been relying on my friend who works in kino to spot them for me! but i realise a lot of pple do not know who he is.
which of his shows are you looking for? will be getting shinsengumi, but it's a pity they dun show it here!

dang u replied like all over the place its cool though, the large pic i posted was from men's non-non may issue 2003, i found that coincidently when i was browsing @ yesasia.com for an M-flo cd and i saw that magazine, apparently it cost about $13 there, so i just went to the jp store nearby my house and i only got it $8.
im actually trying to find any shows with him as much as possible, i only have satorare, platonic sex, and im currently recording shinsegumi (incomplete) every saturdays now.. its also in english subs. _________________

Terrors is supposed to be a scary movie, but was actually kinda corny. Only good thing about it was Joe! I think this was one of Manabe Kaori's first acting jobs so she wasn't very good in it.
Would definitely like to get Satorare on DVD, but kinda broke right now. Gotta wait till I save some money!

mine are not exactly original coz got the vcds of them. have been getting those since years back and have not upgraded to dvds yet.
how fast is it before a show that's shown in japan is broadcast in the states? we dun get shows that quickly and the more popular shows now are the korean ones.
