Arata Furuta and Tori Matsuzaka, Classy Part 2

What do you like about each other?
Tori: Furuta-san's voice. During Paddington, he recorded first so that we have a guide to record. Thanks to him, it's much easier for us. I really like his warm voice.

Tori: Also, his communications skills. He can communicate with all people from various occupations from different places.
Tori: Third, he's very observant. Just listening to our interview today, his powers of observation of people are amazing. He spewed this venom (lol), but I realized that he observes so many people and has a big picture view. I thought it was cool.

Arata Furuta and Tori Matsuzaka, Classy

Impression on each other
Tori: He's a person who has established his own position and his own things. I don't think there is anyone who can match Furuta-san. I feel that he is unique. I've seen him on stage many times. Image
Tori: I first came to know Furuta-san in "Kisarazu Cat's Eye (2002)". I was still a student. Furuta-san's role left a strong impact on me, and I laughed every time. Since I started working here, I've gradually come to know that he's an amazing person.
Furuta: I've known him since he was in "Samurai Sentai Shinkenger". At first I thought, "Tori Matsuzaka is going to play a bear? Aren't we wasting money?" but I enjoyed a lot working with Tori in Paddington.

Q: First of all, I want to say it's amazing. It made me feel glad to be alive and gave me light.

A: Thank you very much.

Q: The main characters were all impressive and stuck in my mind. What did you pay special attention to in terms of casting and direction this time?

A: The main cast is made up of famous people, but I wanted to work with only people who are really good at acting for this film.
A: It may sound bad to put it this way, but I didn't want to cast people just because they were popular. Of course, Furuta-san and Tori are very good actors and very popular. Basically, I cast them based on their skill in acting and whether they fit the role or not.

Tori Matsuzaka, So-en
- Kuhaku

Q: Beside your expression ability, your physical appearance here was also impressive. You seems to be having contractures steadily, your eyes are faint, and yet you seem to be staring at the same point. (T/N: Pls watch trailer.) Image
A: Yes, I did. In the scene where I confronted Furuta-san, I wanted to express the feeling of being unable to look or move, so I ran simulations before filming the scene.
Q: Your physical approach in Call Boy was also famous. Is this a style that you've been pursuing for a long time?
(T/N: Apparently in Japan, acting is termed as psychological and physical approach. I think? Why am I searching these in Japanese?)

On performing Aoyagi

I'm sure there are many people who feel like Aoyagi. So, rather than creating a character, I worked on facing Aoyagi, thinking about what I would do if I were in the same situation.
If I were Aoyagi, I would have this kind of expression on my face, or I might make this kind of choice.

The fact that I was able to perform the role while making use of my own reactions must mean Aoyagi has elements of "ordinariness" which apply to every real person.
Playing Aoyagi, I thought it was really difficult to perform an ordinary role. He doesn't have any outstanding characteristics or archtype. But real people are not that simple or easy to understand.

1. Portrayal
Trapped by both Yakuza and the police, Hioka's energy is tremendous as he tries to pursue justice while turning a blind eye.

cinematoday.jp/news/N0125320
His desire to avenge the murder of Gami is conveyed throughout the film without the need for explanation in dialogue.
2. Relationship to crew

This film is a completely original story by screenwriter Junya Ikegami. As it's a completely new story of Hioka, Matsuzaka must have felt not only the pressure of "sequel" but also the pressure of playing the lead role and taking over from Koji Yakusho.
