Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
I gnash my teeth in frustration
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
Gnash, gnash Rasp, rasp
Let's all brush teeth! Yay!
FOR STRONG TEETH
ZENRYOKU PHARMACEUTICAL
For your strong teeth!
It all started on that day.
Before that,
I'd been just a movie freak.
Ready? Action!
That day, I was making a movie as usual.
A movie about throwing raw eggs.
Of course, we're not just regular movie freaks.
We're the Fuck Bombers,
the freakiest movie freaks in Japan.
On that day,
I sensed an unusual restlessness in the air.
And then...
I met him.
I ran to take a peek.
Look at that! That's more interesting!
Yeah!
Both Miki and Tanigawa were already looking for good angles.
Then, he noticed us.
- What are you doing? - Filming.
Who gave you permission?
You guys are awesome! Don't stop!
- Miki! - I've got the panning.
- Tanigawa! - I've got the handheld shots.
It's rolling.
- So we're all set. - We're not all set, asshole!
Film it!
Them! You're supposed to fight them!
Come on, face one another! Tighten your stomachs!
- Why did you bring these weirdoes? - I don't know them!
Why don't you shut up?
That's it! You guys, too!
That's it! That face!
You too. That's good. Keep the tension. Glare at each other. Good!
Ready? Action!
Get out of our way!
Go back!
We have to take this road. Move over!
There's no space to move over!
- Do that at school! - To hell with you!
Kids should listen to their fathers!
You're not my father!
- That's not what I mean! - Please move over!
Move!
Why Don't You Play In Hell
What's that?
- This? -It's a camera!
-8mm! - A movie!
That fight scene was by far the best!
That's right! We'll film more!
- Film what? - Something in the town.
Good idea!
- Sasaki, see you later! - Later! Take care!
Watch out! Be careful!
My name is Hirata. A future filmmaker.
- I'm Sasaki. - Sasaki, you're my action star!
I'm Miki. I'm good at panning.
Tanigawa. A future handheld cameraman.
Nice to meet you all!
Sunny and bright in the entire prefecture. The current temperature is 29 degrees.
From the evening to late at night along the coast...
Masako Karaoke
Is everything okay?
Everything is okay.
- Is your dick okay, too? - I think so.
Masako.
Thank you for many years of dedication.
You really look lewd.
Don't think you can do this business just by opening your legs.
Shut up. Why don't you leave already, hag?
Junko, don't mind her.
Good job.
Sorry. The Kitagawa Clan's keeping an eye on me these days.
I've been jumpy-
The Masako sign is off. Please lift it up.
I'm bringing down the Junko sign.
Slowly, slowly.
Junko
Junko.
Masako has just left the bar.
Idiot. Stop peeking in.
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
I gnash my teeth in frustration
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
I'm home!
Anyone home?
Your mom's one tough woman.
Quite something.
Never mind about that. What's up with the floor? Clean it up!
Wait, wait!
Don't just stand there. Make a phone call.
- Hurry up! - Please calm down.
Hurry.
Your name?
Muto Shizue, wife of the head of Muto Clan. Muto Taizo.
Muto.
About your daughter Mitsuko.
What about her?
Her commercial may go off the air.
This has nothing to do with her!
It may not, but...
Since her parents made such big news...
- It was self-defense. - Excessive self-defense.
How could it be excessive? It was one woman against four men.
She couldn't have killed them all in self-defense.
Where's Muto?
You knew the Kitagawa Clan was out for my life, didn't you, Kimura?
We have no firm evidence yet.
- Don't fuck with me! - Stop!
- Where's Muto? - Is he out?
Who are you?
I'll deal with you!
Because you were messing around with another woman...
You were lucky. You were supposed to be home, right?
Your unfaithfulness saved your life, didn't it?
Shut up!
It was self-defense.
Even if they were the Kitagawa Clan's hit men,
Shizue chased a man all around.
She ferreted an unarmed man.
Die! Keep your hands off my husband!
How could you call that self-defense?
Didn't you order your wife to whack them?
How dare you.
Mukai, take me to the Kitagawa Clan's place.
Kitagawa's place! I said go!
For you.
- What? - I'm sorry.
Where are you now?
On Makino Street.
Don't come back. Hide somewhere. Do you understand?
Yes I do.
- So you're still alive. - Yes.
Awesome. Just like a movie.
- Yakuza. Amazing! - What do you mean?
I'm just a hoodlum now.
- I wanna be a Yakuza when I graduate. - Don't be silly.
What we need in Japan now is a real action star. You.
You become the Bruce Lee of Japan.
It's not our fault.
I don't think it's possible.
- Who are you? - Excuse me.
What are you doing?
I wanna make a good movie.
- What are you talking about? - You rock!
- You rock!
- Do I? - Let us film you.
Film as much as you want.
But only until I turn that corner.
After that, goodbye.
Yes, we understand.
Film this too.
Traces of blood!
Gnash with all your might. Let's go!
I gnash my teeth in frustration.
Gnash with all your...
Look at this video.
Mitsuko became popular with her cute smile.
But because her mother is now a suspect in a murder case,
it was announced that her commercial will go off the air.
She was a cute girl. Too bad that's the end of her.
She'll come back.
She will, she will...
Is she your girlfriend?
Girlfriend?
Mitsuko's commercial went off the air.
God damn it!
If I cry now, I'll lose.
We are the Fuck Bombers!
Hello, Mrs. Ootani.
It's almost over. Do you wanna see the next showing?
We're not here to watch movies, but to hold a secret meeting.
Ono is there so knock before you enter.
- We know. - We'll talk to you later.
Not that way! From the front door.
I want somewhere with a view.
The farther the views
from the window, the better.
In the morning, birds...
Fuck Bombers!
- Mr. Ono. - What is it?
We brought a new face. A future action star.
- My name is Sasaki. - Handsome lad.
I came to this theater often when I was a kid.
- Is that so? - So this is how you project a movie.
I don't know how long this place will last,
but I want you to use this place even after I'm gone and make good movies.
- Yes! - Keep up the good work.
Filming starts now.
That's our director!
- Let's go! - Yeah!
- We're going. - Good!
A movie of a lifetime. Make it a great one.
Kitagawa Clan Office
Muto is here.
You can't be serious!
Boss.
Don't freak out! Get them!
Action!
There's an idiot there!
Idiot! Idiot!
- Damn you! - Don't mind them!
Catch us if you can!
Wait... Wait...
Wait, wait.
It was an exciting day!
You were awesome.
- Was I? Was I? - You were great. Awesome.
The god of movies was upon you.
- Was I that good? Really? - Really good.
- Those brats in the park called me an idiot. - Never mind them.
- We filmed a good scene. - You're right.
-It's okay. - Do you know what this is?
I hear if you write your wish and pray here, it comes true.
Are you serious?
- Hold this. - All right.
God of movies...
Someday I'll make a movie that will be remembered forever.
Or I'll die trying.
Yes. I swear!
Please, god of movies, make my wish come true!
- This should do it. - Great.
Get a pillow for him.
Ready?
I don't wanna sleep.
You should.
But I'm not sleepy.
It's time to sleep.
Please, set the alarm clock.
At what time?
Tomorrow morning.
Is that so?
You guys stay put.
It's going to be a long battle.
Yes, I understand.
I like it.
Kimono.
I know.
A kimono is the best when you prepare for the worst.
Kimono...
I'm prepared.
Are you vexed?
Don't cancel her commercial.
She is my dream! Don't cancel it! Don't cancel it!
Ikegami of the Kitagawa Clan. Let me speak to Muto.
This is Muto.
That attack was something Sumida did on his own.
I never liked him.
From now on, I'm the boss of the Kitagawa Clan.
That means the rules will change from those of that idiot Sumida.
Would you consider a truce for a while?
You're one cool bastard.
Let's both be cool.
All right. Fortunately, no one's died on our side.
I'll agree to a truce because I'm cool.
Thanks.
- Everybody. - Yes, boss.
You no longer have to wear these clothes of the foreigners.
- What? - Kimonos.
Kimonos. Everybody change into kimonos.
- Yes, boss! - We'll move to the castle today!
- Good. You go change first. - Yes, boss.
- Hurry up! - Yes, boss.
We'll have a competition. You next.
- Wear Japanese-style sunglasses. - Yes, boss!
- No rings. They don't match the kimonos. - Yes, boss.
- Hurry up! - Yes, boss.
- You next. - Yes, boss.
- You next. - Yes, sir.
- Not "yes, sir"! - Yes, boss.
- You. Shave. - Yes, boss.
Yeah, shave.
Your beard doesn't look good. Shave it off. Shave your head and eyebrows too.
Fuck...
Bombers! Cheers!
We made an oath that day
that we'd make the greatest movie ever.
Fuck Bombers! Fuck Bombers!
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
Gnash, gnash Rasp, rasp
However, it was still a long way off.
How long a way off?
TEN YEARS LATER
APPROXIMATELY
The most authentic historical drama of today.
The Fuck Bombers present you this historical drama,
The Blood of Wolves.
An extraordinary new super action star, Sasaki,
will kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!
For over 10 years,
he's idolized Bruce Lee,
starred in a Bruce Lee trilogy,
and played Bruce Lee numerous times.
And now Sasaki presents you...
Yes, a really authentic historical drama, never-before-made in Japan.
Directed by me, Hirata!
Don't miss it! The Blood of Wolves!
It has been about 10 years.
What has become of the Fuck Bombers?
Did we become boring adults?
Our theater, once so bustling,
has become nothing but ruins.
GOING OUT OF BUSINESS
All right. One more time.
The most authentic historical drama of today.
Yes, a really authentic historical drama, never-before-made in Japan.
Directed by me, Hirata!
Yes! Yeah! Bravo!
What do you think?
Not bad.
He's awesome, isn't he?
Great.
My camera. Beautiful panning technique, isn't it?
Wasn't my handheld camera movement impressive?
I am the great one.
I think it was okay.
It was good.
Okay. One more time.
This is great! Amazing, Tanigawa. Really great.
There! Sasaki appears. Sasaki.
- He's wonderful. - Here he goes, goes, goes!
Awesome! Sasaki, very good!
This picture. What is this?
What is it, Maki?
Who are these people?
It's us in high school.
What? You guys got om!
It's been 10 years. Of course we're older.
Don't know who's who.
We haven't changed that much.
Then who is this?
This? You see the same tracksuit? Sasaki.
His hair is longer now.
- Then who is this? - This is obviously me!
I haven't changed a bit!
Who's this cute girl?
That's her with the red bandana!
- And this slim lad? - Now a fatty.
The vest looks so tight on him.
Who is this old man?
He was a 35mm projectionist.
What is 35mm?
This film.
And this is the projector.
It's unwieldy, isn't it?
Why didn't you use this?
- For the one you just showed us. - It wasn't 35mm. It was a video.
So it wasn't a movie.
-It's called a pilot film. - Pilot?
It's like a commercial to take to companies and ask them for funding.
So the movie is not made yet?
That's the next step. Right, Sasaki?
So, how old is that video?
About two years old.
No. Three years old.
Four years old, to be exact.
Save your breath.
And when will you start making the movie?
Tomorrow!
All right, Miki. Let's go buy some beer.
Good, good. Do you have any idea what it says on your T-shirt?
- Do you know what it means? - No, I don't!
All right. Here's some more music from Japan Radio.
This song is a mega-hit made famous 10 years ago.
It became well-known because of that famous commercial.
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
Is everything okay?
Everything is okay.
Goodbye to Junko, too.
It reminds me of Masako.
Who is Shizue?
Idiot! Don't ask.
Thank you for taking care of me.
No hard feelings.
Take your time.
Slowly.
The woman who laid her life on the line for you is coming back.
You did the right thing.
Junko has just left the bar.
Idiot. Stop peeking in.
Shizue
Shizue...
Shizue, I feel that my fateful day has come.
My men downstairs are on pins and needles right now.
What's the deal with ikegami?
It could turn into a war at any moment. We've lost some young men, too.
Leader, we've been beaten.
It's our turn
to attack them!
Do you have a piece?
Yes, of course.
Show it to me.
You all show it to me!
- What's the color? - Red.
Perfect! Let's spruce up your room with it.
Something is falling.
Something's going up.
Untie me!
Retreat!
Untie her!
You all die!
Mom.
Sorry, I lost my mobile.
What's your problem?
Koji, are you listening?
- Hang up. Hang up! - This?
Who are you?
Be my lover just for today.
Just pretend. That's all I ask.
I have 100,000 yen.
Just today. One day.
And the 100,000 yen is yours.
- Your name is Koji? - Yes.
Koji, lean toward me a little.
Hold my shoulder.
Then take the receiver.
Talk into it.
"Hello." Is this good?
You're doing great. Keep talking.
How am I?
Am I calm?
Everything is fine.
You're calm.
Mitsuko, come home. Mitsuko.
Idiot!
Ten days to go.
Ten more days.
The other day, I went out to the courtyard, and a thought came to me.
The blue sky used to amaze me.
I thought, "How blue it is! Amazing!" Just because it was blue.
But today, even though it's so blue, it didn't amaze me at all.
I wondered why, so I asked my friend here.
She said, "That's natural, because the sky isn't there to amaze you."
She's right. Nobody told the sky to be blue.
When you're out,
I'll amaze you.
Mitsuko.
Is the filming going smoothly?
Yeah. It's almost finished.
I'm happy.
Mitsuko's screen debut.
She had a toothbrush in one hand and said, "For your strong teeth!"
She showed her shiny teeth.
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
She was so cute.
I was certain she'd be a great actress.
Now she's not only cute.
But, just like you,
also sexy.
Wonderful.
Can't wait to see the movie.
Even though the sky doesn't want to amaze you,
this movie wants to amaze you.
Only you.
It's time.
Only 10 more days.
- I love you. - I love you.
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Boss, we have a situation.
Did you find Mitsuko?
This is more important!
More important?
What is it?
Boss, the Kitagawa Clan attacked us.
What's the damage?
No one died, but...
It's a cat!
It was a cat.
Idiots! Don't be so jumpy!
How about Mitsuko?
Mitsuko!
- I'm sorry. - Don't blame it on the situation!
Find her!
To hell with the Kitagawa Clan! Find Mitsuko!
Idiot!
Go to the studio.
The studio?
Where are you going?
Hurry up!
Yes.
Why?
I don't get it.
I can't resist her.
My DNA is stirring.
Button it.
Why?
Why am I not running away?
Who are you?
Button it.
We're going to a man's place now.
His name is Yoshimura Mitsuo.
Understood?
Yes.
My love
Why did you leave me?
I'll follow you all the way
My love
Why did you leave me?
I'll follow all the way
Okay, cut.
- Cut. - No can do.
I know, but I need your help.
Even though it's your request, I can't do what I can't do.
- At least try to... - No, I can't.
You're the producer. Pull some strings.
I'm telling you, that's not the point! Don't you understand?
Mitsuko's back. She's home now.
So you found her. Now what?
Filming will be finished in five days. You know what that means, right?
No more filming.
How can you accept that klutz?
Mitsuko was perfect!
I know! Your daughter is...
Ten times, 100 times better than that ham! I know that!
But you see...
We only have five more days.
Even if Mitsuko comes back, it's too late.
We can't re-film it with Mitsuko. We just can't!
It's not about her.
You know.
Your wife is a good woman.
Really good.
Ten years. Ten!
This is a gift for her to celebrate her release. She's so excited to see it.
So I waited a week for you!
You told me she'd come back, that she'd be back for her mother.
So I waited one week! One week for you!
Did you think about the cost during the time it was disrupted?
That was the utmost best I could do for our friendship.
Besides, you have a more urgent matter...
...than making a movie.
I know.
The day before yesterday,
you had a shootout with the Kitagawa Clan.
Yoshida and Matsu raided my office.
There was a shootout, and some died.
You can't be serious.
Yes I am.
I am serious.
That's why I'm here.
Damn you...
Yoshimura.
Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura.
Mail delivery.
Home. Delivery. Service. Home delivery service.
I'm sorry.
Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura. Home delivery service.
- Yes. - Wait.
Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura. Home delivery service.
Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura.
- Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura. - Yes.
Are you Mr. Yoshimura?
What? How did you know I was here?
Home delivery service.
Mr. Yoshimura?
- Yes. - I need your signature...
Your signature.
Your signature please, Mr. Mitsuo Yoshimura.
Why?
Koji!
- Yes, yes. - Over here.
Hurry up.
Keep your shoes on!
Come here. Hold on to him.
Hurry! Tighter!
There's no need for this! I won't run.
I'm sorry, Mitsuko. My bad.
I deserve to be killed. I knew you'd find me.
My, how meek.
If it's so easy for you to surrender,
why did you run away when my father captured me?
- Forgive me. - Do you know who I am?
I know who you are!
- Muto! - An amateur.
When you kill someone for real, this is how you do it.
Muto!
This gun is fake too. Everything here is fake!
Why do you put the spotlight on her?
Mr. Cameraman?
We won't tolerate this.
I want you to leave.
All of us here like her better than Mitsuko Muto.
What, asshole?
She's done a bunk with a guy.
An actress doesn't do that. She's an amateur!
All of us in the studio are fed up!
Leave.
It's not over.
With all your might.
Open your mouth.
With all your might.
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
I gnash my teeth in frustration
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Is she your girlfriend?
Girlfriend?
Now a kiss goodbye.
Goodbye.
Now, let's go, Koji.
Yes.
Ikegami Clan Headquarters
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
I gnash my teeth in frustration
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Be brisk there.
Don't dilly-dally. Be brisk!
Get out of my way.
Boss. Boss!
These are the current pictures of Muto's daughter.
I already know.
Muto tried to make her an actress, but she ran away.
I know!
A barbarian like him can't raise a decent kid.
If she were in my care,
I could've easily made her an actress.
So sad...
Boss!
I could make her an actress.
She was really lively and wonderful.
My heart had never fluttered like that before.
Go prepare for the meal!
Welcome. Which movie do you want to see?
That's a sacred place. Out!
- Paul Newman. - Eugen Schüfftan's camera. Beautiful.
No handheld shots.
Only two panning shots, too.
- I'll play Tom Cruise. - Okay.
I quit.
- What? - I said, "I quit."
Quit what?
How long will you keep doing this stupid thing?
- What thing? - Everything.
- Everything? - Everything! Movies!
What's wrong with movies?
We haven't achieved anything.
- Now? - Yeah, now.
- You're telling me this now? - I'm telling you this now.
- You shouldn't say that. - I should.
- Shouldn't. - Should!
Look, we've been working hard, because movies are...
- Our passion! - Love!
- And... - What?
- Spirit! - Ambition!
- And... - Don't say "and"!
- Nothing wrong with "and." -"And" goes on forever.
"And" has no ending!
- You wanna end it? - Yeah.
Screw "the Bruce Lee of today." Do you know how old I am? Almost 30.
In two years.
Usually people can goof around until 25. And we can too because we love movies.
Our journey of youth goes on after 25.
We'll always be 17.
- I don't wanna anymore. - Wait, Sasaki.
Today could be the most important day of our lives.
You're always talking like that!
Always?
If today's the day, show me how it's important.
I can't. Only the god knows.
- What god? - The god of movies!
Then, when did he say that today is the day?
I don't know when. But I always pray to the god of movies.
God, please let me make the greatest movie! I can die or get killed for it! I'll die!
I always pray for that day to come!
When will it come?
Someday.
- So someday, not today. - It may be today.
I'm done talking.
"And" keep walking.
"And" keep going wherever you want to. I'm not following you.
The god of movies will be angry.
Let him!
We are the Fuck Bombers!
Where's the suit?
I have to go to work.
- Just a part-time job. - Better than this.
- Better? - Enough!
I made you the star in all my movies!
I don't care!
I'm better at fighting because of you!
"Thanks to," not "because of"!
I don't understand you anymore. Ten years. Ten!
All we've made were independent movies! And those cameras!
They're videos now!
It's inevitable. The passage of time.
I can't be with you anymore. Die!
I'll die for movies!
- Movies don't kill you. - Yes, they do.
Then let it kill you!
I can't! The day hasn't come yet!
God of movies, please kill him!
He says he can die when the day comes!
- Right. You give up now? - No way!
- Give up! - No!
- What if today was the day? - Today?
Yes. Then will you die for me?
For you? That's the stupidest thing to say!
Be an eternal action star.
I only die for myself.
An eternal action star?
I only want to make one great movie.
There are so many shitty directors.
They make a slew of movies and build mansions.
They make worthless movies and earn money!
I don't want that!
I want to be a legend known for my one and only movie!
That's just crap we used to dream of.
Yes, crap. Crap is the most sacred.
Holy crap! Holy crap!
Holy crap!
I'm gone!
Holy crap!
He's really gone.
Why did you do that?
He said he'd run away with me but got off the train early.
You mustn't run away.
If you run, you lose.
I didn't expect to be lectured by you.
Why don't you date men openly?
My dad will kill me if I do that.
Why does your father chase you?
You are my lover today. So act like one.
No more questions.
I want to return this to you.
Don't worry.
I don't need your money.
Why not?
I've never met a girl like you, Mitsuko.
A girl who can stage a goodbye kiss so awesomely.
- You're the first. - Is that so?
I don't want your money.
You don't need to ask me to be your lover today.
I want to ask you to be mine.
Aren't you scared of me?
I am.
But if I run from you in fear,
you can shove glass in my mouth, too.
You don't mean that.
I won't run.
Until tomorrow morning,
let me pretend to be your lover, fair and square.
What's wrong?
Mitsuko, you're the girl in that commercial, right?
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
- Same name, too. - That's right.
What's going on?
Looks like we're caught.
Don't touch me!
Boss, he brought the news that the Muto Clan is on their way here.
Is that true?
What are we gonna do?
Kill them.
- Good idea! - Good idea!
- Kill them when they're here. - Kill them when they're here!
Get this girl, all right?
This girl... Take her away from him!
Kill, kill, kill, kill...
What will happen to me?
You'll be killed, of course.
Listen, you fucked the boss's daughter.
- I didn't... - Did.
- I didn't. - You did.
And escaped with an actress in the middle of filming.
How could we leave such a guy be?
Let's see. It's 5:10 now.
You'll be dead by sundown.
Take it like a man.
Help!
Pluck up your courage.
Welcome back!
- Police? - Already left.
That's good.
- We'll set up the surveillance... - Don't worry.
It's an emergency situation.
We'll create a movie crew.
- What are you talking about, boss? - I know, I know.
I know how you feel.
But just think about it.
The reason this clan is standing today as strong as ever
is because, first and foremost, my wife saved me,
laying her life on the line for me.
Shota.
Suppose you killed a Kitagawa for me.
And suppose you were in jail,
and your wife and kids were hungry.
Do you think that I'd let them starve to death?
- No. - I wouldn't.
I never would.
- Narisu. - Yes.
Your woman, too. I'd take good care of her.
That's our honor and justice.
Yes!
- Right, Sanada? - Yes.
I know.
It's a crazy idea to make a movie at a time like this.
I'm not stupid. I get it.
But it's for the woman who risked her life for our clan,
who will be out in 10 days.
It's her lifelong dream to see her daughter's screen debut.
I want to put it on the big screen with a bang!
I want to show it to her.
Do you get it? Do you?
Yes.
Do you get it, Shozo?
- Yes. - I knew you would.
Does it hurt?
- Yes, a little. - Do you understand me?
- Yes, a little. - You're mob all the way.
Yes.
Under the circumstances, no film company will take us seriously.
So let's do it by ourselves. Let's show her our appreciation.
- Let's make a movie together. - Yes!
But we're Yakuza.
No other way. I don't wanna do it if I can help it.
I don't care for movies. But...
We've got to do it. It's just like a raid.
- As things stand... - Boss.
- Then why don't we film the raid? -Interesting.
It serves a dual purpose. It'll look powerful, too.
Today's filming at the studio was crap.
We'll raid the Kitagawa Clan,
and raid the movie industry, too!
That's the craziest idea.
Muto here.
You found her?
Yes. The guy too. Most likely the guy running away with her.
Yes, we're already on our way.
Name?
What's your name?
Koji Hashimoto.
He had an insurance card, too.
Really, please give me a break.
Good. Bring him here right away!
Mitsuko was captured along with her man!
- Let's make a movie! - Thanks, guys.
- Let's do it! - And go on a raid, too!
- Let's make a good movie! - Right.
- Don't push yourselves too hard. - Too late for that.
I'll help too.
You win.
- First, we'll clean up this place! -Yes!
I've seen many losers in my life,
but a guy as wimpy as you is rare.
There's a time when you need to come clean and say you did her.
You had the nerve to do her.
You should have the nerve to tell. No?
Gather your courage, Koji. All right?
There's no suspicious movement.
Impossible. He'll soon get worked up and start doing something.
But they're cleaning. Happily, too.
If you want to become a seasoned detective...
Yes?
- Don't take things at face value. - Yes.
Listen.
They know very well that we're staking out here.
Do you think they'll show us a clear picture
that they're going to a raid soon?
You're clever, Mr. Kimura.
- Right? - Yes.
It's all a big act.
If you're a man, endure the pain and sing with me.
Yes.
Boss. Boss? Boss?
Are you all right? You're drenched in sweat.
Yeah. It's nothing.
Muto's men are late.
Maybe they got wimpier.
I always have that dream.
Especially when I'm in danger.
That girl.
The girl named Mitsuko.
Why could she sing and dance so gaily in that hideous place?
Every time I have that dream...
Frustration!
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
Gnash, gnash Rasp, rasp
Let's all brush teeth! Yay!
Right. I gave her a big hand then.
Where's my mom?
I don't know.
She's alive.
Of course.
My mom's too tough to be killed by a guy like you.
I saw your commercial.
- Me? - Yeah.
- Did you like it? - Yeah.
Not bad.
Are you going to come back for revenge?
Yes. No doubt about it.
Forever? Even when I grow up?
Until it's finished.
I'll be an actress by then.
So come see my movie. I'll give you my autograph.
Yeah. That'll be good.
By the way, I'm bleeding.
Will you call the hospital?
So that I can get your autograph in the future.
They won't appreciate it if I bleed anymore over this place.
What a sorry man. You mop it up.
Hello, this is the Muto family...
Yes, we have one injured, the rest are dead. Come now.
You should hurry up and leave now.
If you're a man, show your teeth and smile.
Full-on teeth grind, let's go!
Boss, you okay?
Yeah.
Let go! I said let me go!
I can't leave a mark on your face for another month.
I didn't want to do it anymore.
I was tired of it!
Ever since I was a kid, it's just been local commercials.
I'm 20 already. I don't want some small part! I have to be the star!
And it has to be a really cool part!
I'm tired of crap films!
It was only 10 more days until the filming was finished!
Just 10 more days.
Do you get it? Just 10 days.
If you had waited,
you could've gone off with this shit guy or whoever.
Ten days! Just 10 more days.
Why couldn't you wait?
It was only 10 more days!
- Serve him some tea. - Sir?
- I said tea. - Yes, sir!
Why did you run?
Was this guy that good? How good was he?
He...
- He's a movie director. - What?
That's what I told you!
Stand up!
Mom wouldn't be happy even if I debuted in that crap movie!
That's what he said, right?
He said, "Wait for me to make a movie.
"I'll make it amazing!"
That's why I ran.
Yuzuru. Call for the equipment right now.
We're filming!
Lights! Do you need lighting?
Lights! Camera!
Get everything ready!
Mr. Kimura.
What the hell is this?
It's a huge truck.
Are they packing weapons?
What the hell is that?
I know what that is. It's film equipment.
That's the lighting equipment.
That's scaffolding. They usually use it for...
Don't be stupid! Of course that's not what that is!
They're the weapons needed for the raid.
- Weapons? - Yeah.
So how much is it going to cost?
This is the breakfast I usually have with my whore.
After a wild night...
It's the breakfast sent from a cheap hotel downstairs.
Even then, I only do this with my usual whores.
It's not much of a meal.
Lunch is with my mistress.
A great mistress.
But I only have lunch with my mistress.
Dinner is a different story.
You see...
The woman who has dinner with me
is the woman who's going to the grave with me.
So if we're going to eat together, it's got to be dinner, right?
So what's it going to be? The price of my breakfast, lunch, or dinner?
Dinner...
Coffee.
Yes, sir.
Listen, I don't know how much this is going to cost.
You know more about this than I do.
How much is it going to be?
If it's going to be breakfast, I won't say anything. That's pocket change.
I'll just watch the finished product.
If it's lunch, then I have some say in the matter.
You'll be like my mistress.
And lastly...
Dinner.
This is a different story.
I'll go through everything, check every detail,
and have a say in everything.
It's an investment, after all.
Those who share dinner together are family.
So, what are you gonna do?
Breakfast...
I'd like the breakfast please.
I see.
You're okay with breakfast?
Don't worry.
This is the amount I spend on a whore.
Is there a woman who can make this much in one night?
The one who gets this much money...
Is it my whore? My mistress? Or my wife?
Listen.
If you run, I'll kill you.
If you can't complete it, I'll kill you.
Either way, if you don't do well...
I'll kill you.
Understand?
Filmmaking 101
Director!
How many centimeters of film is appropriate for a movie?
About this much is best.
Yes, sir?
- About this thickness, he said. - Yes, sir!
Director! Director!
This is the HMI, apparently. Is this okay?
- This one is especially good. - How many?
Three.
- Four. - Four? Sorry, guys, that's four!
Director!
There are three cameras here.
Which one should I use?
Director!
Yes? Hurry!
Take a look at these!
What do you think?
How close do they need to be?
Mitsuko, I can't do this anymore. Help me!
He's running!
Dear god... God of movies...
Please let us shoot a film someday. From Hirata.
This! This!
This is it! This is it! This is it!
This is it!
Yes!
Don't worry. Sasaki will come back.
Barkeep, one more.
- I know! Have a girl cheer you up. - I'm here already.
Yeah, she's here.
Was Sasaki serious?
Yeah, he was serious.
I wonder if he's coming back.
Hirata's like that.
It's absolutely romantic under the stars. The wind gently blowing, the moon shining.
However, the man has an obligation.
The obligation to make sure everything is perfect.
Hirata, your cell's ringing.
Later! Can you get it?
- Hello? Here? - Who is it?
- You're coming now? - Hurry up!
Hello?
Stage 2. Tonight is equal to Stage 2.
It's about time. No, wait! Don't rush things! Wait! It's too soon!
Because of these thoughts,
the man can't enjoy the moon, the romantic setting.
The woman simply has to let herself go in the sweet moment.
- Here's your coffee. -"A night so sweet!
"I just want it to last forever!"
If the man could make that happen, he would have long ago.
If we could shoot Sasaki with Camera 3...
It would have so much impact!
Yeah, especially on the big screen.
- I want to shoot it! - Yeah, that'll be nice.
The man can't relax.
For a woman, the first kiss is something she simply gets to enjoy...
For a man, it's highly planned.
A man has never naturally let his lips near.
A man has to consciously carry things through.
It may appear natural to a woman, but this is the man's plan.
To kiss a woman is not natural behavior for a man.
Let me make it clear, but no man has ever made a first kiss happen naturally!
The moment a man falls for a woman, he wants to kiss her!
- Mr. Hirata? - Hirata!
- Are you Mr. Hirata? - Yeah.
- I need your help. - Can you ask later?
My name is Koji Hashimoto!
Not yet.
Please make a movie with me right now!
- A movie? - Yes.
What? What's going on?
I'm really sorry this is so sudden.
- Who are you two? - I'm Koji Hashimoto.
Who the hell are you?
I'm going to explain every...
Everything... No, I can't say.
What's wrong?
Sorry.
I won't ask questions, but I'm an amateur who's only worked with an 8mm.
That's fine, that's fine. Even then, you know much more than me!
I have absolutely no idea how to make a movie.
Help me please!
Please help us.
- I have no idea what you mean. - I'm the one who has no idea!
Can you explain?
He's desperate to make a movie. So we need your help.
This is cool.
- Then you can come back tomorrow and... - Tonight!
Right now.
- Why? - Why?
Yeah, I have no idea what's going on. Why?
You. Do you want to make a movie?
Yeah, I would like to. I want to!
We'll pay however much you need. It's a 35mm!
A 35mm film! All expenses paid?
The condition, you make me the star. In a cool role!
- You? - What? You have a problem with that?
Wait a second.
We want you to come with us right now.
I'm in the middle of a date.
You don't have to cut your date short. Right?
Can you change it to J-Wave? I think they're playing '50s American pop.
Man lives to plan. it can't be helped.
Because otherwise, if they try to force a kiss like I did earlier,
they'd run, right?
"I'm not cheap. It's not that easy to get a kiss from me."
Then what about the man who wants to immediately kiss?
Does that make him cheap?
Look. Is that the big dipper?
Yeah. Nature creates Earth. And man creates love.
You can kiss me.
You should do it.
It's probably better if you do it.
Man doesn't really know anything in actuality.
Women have that too, right?
Walking along the street in a crowd, in the sunlight.
Suddenly, you have an urge to kiss the man walking next to you.
That is a natural thought process. Not something planned.
It's a natural desire.
You really should do it.
- You really should. - I think that you should do it, too.
Just because you lock the door to the hotel bedroom,
or because you suddenly stop in the moonlight,
doesn't make you want to kiss someone.
Love can't be ordinary. It's not true sensation.
So I can't do it just because these guys tell me to.
But really, I just want to kiss. No matter how bad the setting.
If you don't do what you really want, you won't experience a true kiss.
Stop the car!
Don't follow us!
Poor guy. He's never going to see her again.
Die today or die tomorrow...
No, we can't have him die until it's finished.
Want one?
I'll eat it.
- Let's kiss the next time we meet. - What about tonight?
Apparently, there's a good offer.
It doesn't seem like a good offer at all.
Those guys?
I have a bad feeling about this. Don't go.
Life is more exciting when you go with the bad feeling.
- You're a fool. - I know.
So the next time we meet, I just have to let myself enjoy your kiss?
Yes. Let's meet again.
- Really? - I promise you.
Where are you going?
A place of promise.
A place of oath!
A movie of a lifetime. Make it a great one.
I need my partner for this. Let's go.
Please come with me, Mr. Bodyguards. I have an important role for you.
Welcome!
I'm opening the door now!
- What do you want? - We're making a movie.
A movie? You're still saying that shit?
It's true! They're providing the budget, the actors, everything! Right?
Yeah.
- Get out! - Sasaki!
Mr. Suzuki, Mr. Yoshida. Please do it!
What are you doing?
That was expensive!
Spicy!
Cut!
That's the spirit. Let's go!
Sasaki.
The day has come.
It was today.
I told you. The god of movies hasn't forgotten us.
Sasaki, what are you doing?
This is very expensive!
Old man!
Paycheck
Here's my paycheck. Please forgive me.
This guy is making the movie of a lifetime.
I'll pay back the rest with that.
Thank you.
Are you ready, director?
What? Yes.
Also, I brought cocaine just in case.
- Would you like some? - No thank you. No...
Just hold on to it!
Cocaine is important.
Well, either way, this area's gonna be all ours.
It's too easy.
Well, that's fine isn't it?
Are you ready?
I can't hear you! You ready?
Are you ready?
Good.
Tonight is a celebratory night, even in the long history of the Muto family.
I'm always strong against danger.
No. In fact, danger continually leads and saves me.
And a god is here now.
The guardian angel led him here to me.
He is our guardian angel! No... God!
Director! Please come here.
And Mir. Hirata, the producer.
- Producer? - Everyone, call Koji "director" from now on.
Director.
Would you like to share a few words?
Well...
Towards Okada over there on the hill. Your message!
As Mitsuko's boyfriend...
Father, from the beginning,
I've felt that this was the only guy who could film me.
That's why I ran. Because I really wanted him to film me.
It might have been selfish of me. But please understand.
Let's make this a good movie!
And let's welcome mother on the screen!
Mitsuko...
Yes, Daddy?
I love you.
I love you too, Daddy!
All right! Let's start!
Excuse me!
- What about the script? - What?
Do we need one?
Director! Come here for a sec!
These guys have been practicing. Take a look!
Guys, you ready? Start!
What the hell is this?
These guys are Yakuza.
It's kind of complicated, but there's another group called ikegami...
They're planning to make a film out of the raid.
That's what everyone is working toward right now.
- What? - I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry!
What is this?
Thank you, film god, for not forgetting about me!
This is exactly the situation I've dreamed about!
This is the miracle movie of a lifetime!
So this is Tanigawa and Miki, our camera crew.
Thanks for having us!
- And this... - And?
...Is the modern Bruce Lee! He's worth 100 men!
Are you guys the Yakuza staff?
Yes! We're the camera crew!
Yes! The lighting crew!
- And you? - Yes! The sound crew!
Can you do this?
We're not that confident...
But we'll work as if we're dying!
These guys can work as if they're dying...
Well, maybe they will.
Dying is fine.
I even understand that spirit.
But...
Don't miss anything.
I don't want you to miss!
So my plan...
I have a plan as well...
- My plan... - My plan is...
My plan!
This turned into a small get-together.
Who the hell are you?
Be careful with that.
Move that to the top.
Try panning.
Now the other way.
Stop!
That's good. Shall we start then?
Ready? Action!
Sasaki! Cut! Sasaki...
Ready? Action!
What the hell is that camera?
What is this? Ready? Action? Cut?
Are Muto and them filming?
Everyone's conscious of the camera.
They're acting all cool.
This is ridiculous!
No! They're completely aware of it! How are we different?
I see! We're in reality, and they're in the fantastical.
Reality is going to lose!
No!
No one has realized
that these guys are extra motivated because of the cameras.
At this rate, we're going to lose!
Mitsuko!
And that's how it goes.
That is the downfall of the Ikegami Clan.
It's good, isn't it? Director?
Yes...
Is your daughter going with you?
No way! Think about it!
What's going to happen to the rest of the movie if I die?
Yeah, we need you in this scene.
Write a real script, please. I won't accept it otherwise.
A script for the heroine.
What should we do, boss?
Can you write one right now?
- What? - I'll write one. Give me 10 seconds.
I got it!
Let's do this.
First, let's give the ikegami group a call.
Are you stupid? We can't do that.
They're adults. They'll understand.
- What do you mean? - This is the story I've always wanted to film.
Please let me make it a reality.
It's the Muto group.
What?
Yeah. Why the hell are you calling now?
Do you surrender?
Hello. My name's Hirata.
I'm not really with the Muto group.
But there's something I'd like to discuss with you.
I'm currently filming a movie with Mitsuko.
What?
What do you mean?
It's exactly what I mean.
I'm shooting a movie starring Mitsuko Muto.
Though you may not believe me, a movie.
By Mitsuko...
You mean that Mitsuko?
- Gnash with all your might. Let's go! -Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's...
- Fly! - That's right!
And?
Will you listen to what I have to say?
- Is Mitsuko there with you now? - Yes.
I'll speak to you again soon.
Okay, I'm going to go over there.
- What? - Don't worry.
I have to have a meeting with them.
Wait a second.
You're not trying to run are you?
Why would I do that?
This is my chance to make the film of a lifetime!
Wait! I'm going too!
What the hell are you talking about?
I need to watch over him.
And they'll let their guard down if there's a woman there, right?
Wait! I'm going to go too!
I am the director.
Yeah?
Hello.
I'm the one that called earlier.
Good evening.
- Come in. - Yes.
Why the hell are you walking in here like you own the place?
Do you understand what's going on here?
What is this all about?
Explain.
What the hell is it?
You're the Yakuza that was covered in blood before.
I wanna make a good movie.
You're that brat?
What? You're a Yakuza now?
No, I wouldn't become anything as pitiful as that.
I want to make a movie.
You're still doing that shit?
It must make a lot of dough, movies.
I'm not like the Yakuza.
I don't plan on making movies for the sake of money.
Those are the fools that turn the Japanese film industry to crap.
I'm going to make a great movie and show it off to the world!
What the fuck?
Where's Mitsuko?
Gnash with all your might! Let's go!
Gnash until they rasp! Let's fly!
You're the Yakuza that was all bloody before!
Long time no see!
So if we're making this film, I'd like to do this right.
Just filming random shots would only be like sports coverage.
That's why we'd like to coordinate with you
and make this into a film we want to make!
Got it?
I got it!
- What are you saying? - Shut up!
- What we're going to do is the same anyway. - But...
There's just going to be a camera now, that's all.
-Isn't that right? - That's exactly right.
I understand.
Let's make the best movie possible!
Thank you very much!
Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me.
- We got them to agree. - What?
Are you a genius?
Wow!
And...
Instead of guns...
The katana.
This is the epitome of traditional Japanese action!
Guess it can't be helped.
If that's what a genius says...
It's much more manly that way.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
We're Japanese men,
so we should go with the katana. Yes, the katana!
I thought and I thought...
The script is important! Please give me some time!
Okay. Got it.
I'm going to write and write. I'm going to write.
Yes, the story is most important.
Even as I write, the training doesn't stop.
Not for the sound crew, the camera crew, the lighting crew or the acting crew!
35mm is the best!
We're almost ready to shoot!
Sasaki leads the action.
Mitsuko's acting is improving.
Tanigawa has arrived!
Both Miki and Tanigawa are training in order to be proficient with the 35mm.
Honey...
Mitsuko is doing well.
Yes. Mitsuko is doing well.
And my story,
as it moves one step, two steps, three steps forward,
is becoming more wonderful.
And when the great script is finished,
we will all get together and say...
It's done!
"Yes! This is it!" and celebrate the beginning of a movie.
Yes this is it!
But...
But I don't have that kind of time.
Let's go!
Yeah, that looks good.
Camera and lighting are good to go.
Go ahead, director.
Okay.
Ready? Action...
You can't say it like that!
I'm sorry.
I know! You play the part of Koji who's in love with Mitsuko.
- Is that okay? - Yes.
- You can leave that to me! - Yeah. Go out to the hallway.
Okay!
Ready?
Action!
Cut!
Okay, next here.
What the hell is taking you guys so long?
We're gonna kill you! Yeah! We're gonna kill you!
Everyone in the cast!
This time, act like Yakuza. Make it look really cool.
I'm going to have you face the enemy and raise your swords.
Make it look good!
Like Bunta Sugawara or Tetsuya Watari!
You mean like Ken Takakura.
Yes! Let's go with that!
Bend your knees.
Look meaner!
Grit your teeth!
Yes! That looks good! Keep still like that please.
Camera, pan from there! Yes, like that!
I love you.
Stop it. You love Mom more.
35mm is heavy, huh?
Yeah.
Cut!
Keep still please! Camera this way...
Hurry, hurry!
Now pan from here.
Yes, just like that.
Shall we start the fight?
People in the hallway, are you ready?
Yeah! We're ready whenever you are!
- Lights ready? - Ready!
Sound ready?
- Ready! - Ready.
- Cameras ready? - Ready!
Ready!
- Actors ready? - Ready!
Ready...
Action!
Cut, cut, cut. Cut!
What's wrong?
Lights! Hurry with the lights!
I'm sorry! Turning it back on now!
- Wait a second! - What?
Let's go again!
We're going again!
Are we starting from the hallway again?
No, we already got that shot.
Please take stance in front of the enemy facing you!
Like this?
Yes! Yes! Yes! All right, let's go.
- Sasaki? - Yeah.
- Miki? - Yeah.
- Tanigawa? - Yeah.
Ready?
Action!
All right. Let's do it. Fuck Bombers!
That's good! That way now!
Sasaki! Over there!
We, the Fuck Bombers, always chase our dreams!
Let's grab it now! Our dreams!
We, the Fuck Bombers, have been waiting for this moment all our lives!
Go! Go! Go! Fuck Bombers!
Keep going! Keep going!
Mitsuko! Here, film Mitsuko!
Mitsuko!
The cocaine's kicking in!
Wow!
Mitsuko...
Die!
Ikegami!
- Wait a second! - What?
That's your daughter, right?
Yeah.
She's so beautiful.
She grew up beautifully.
Yeah.
It's impossible to continue.
We'll probably disband after this.
But I'd like to die at the hands of your daughter.
I want to die at the hands of your daughter!
Dad...
Dad!
Just a while ago, the two of us were...
Ready?
Action!
You know...
I'm dumb, right?
What?
And I'll still be dumb when I die.
So...
Just once I would have liked
to have blossomed.
Does the inside of your mouth still sting?
The inside of my mouth?
The pieces from the beer bottle...
I've never known anyone as nice as you.
I'm not nice.
I've never had a proper kiss before.
Kiss?
Only ones on screen.
A real loving kiss...
I've never experienced that before.
Cut! Cut! Cut!
No, it's not cut yet.
When I find someone I really love,
maybe being an actress won't matter so much anymore.
Just kidding.
Mitsuko!
Koji!
Why the hell are they all lovey-dovey?
I'm so sorry this happened, Koji.
Thank you.
That right hand...
Even if it was attached here all my life,
I felt nothing.
But I never knew I could feel so...
That's for talking with your guard down!
You!
The end.
It's not the end!
Thank you.
Ready...
Action!
Cut!
Sound's still going.
Get this guy.
Ready...
Action!
Change it, change it! Go around! Hurry! Go!
Okay, cut! Good job!
You're good! You're just like Jackie!
Sasaki! Good!
It's nice and peaceful here.
Can you hear Mitsuko's voice?
Mits...
That's a gunshot.
That's a gunshot. A gunshot!
That's for Muto!
It wasn't me, you know.
Peace is...

Why Don't You Play In Hell
Now showing: Why Don't You Play in Hell
We did it!
Fuck Bombers!
Cut!
In the hospital room
The night starts to eat at my heart
The growling next door
Signals the beginning
Always in my dream
I'm always running away from the pain
The only things I ever remember
Are the simple things, like her naked body
Just the little, warm, nice things
It's no use, this has already been
Hell, a fun, exciting place
There's no way out, there never has been
Ever since I was born
I gaze at what I admire so dearly
Always out there, outside the window
A flower resembling hope
Smiles at me like a beautiful girl
I reached out for it
So what if it's all a lie?
It spreads right in my face
Only those who move on in hell
End up a winner and defeat a lonely memory
In the classroom, I got lost
I move on in this miserable world
There's never been a place I belong
Ever since I was born
Always gazing at the sign
Outside the window
A flower resembling cruelty
Smiles at me like a beautiful girl
I reached out for it
So what if it's all fake?
It spreads right in front of me
Someday, I'll stand up for once
Grabbing onto tomorrow
Thousands and thousands
Like stars, like clouds
Before I know it, everywhere I go
Crumbling to pieces
The world made up of lies
It spreads right in front of me
Only those who move on in hell
End up a winner and defeat a lonely memory
This world is all a fake
It spreads right in front of me
I can't move from here
But I'll wait for you right here in hell
I'll wait for you right here in hell
