Date: 10/25/2005
A project that is certainly one to watch, although about a year out is the film Yume Juu Yoru (Ten Dream Nights) which has recently been completed in Japan based on the book of the same title by Souseki Natsume. Toho held a special screening opened to reporters on the 24th. The movie is composed of 10 short stories each visualized by a different director (there are said to be 11 directors total). Some of these stories will be told in live action and some in animation formats. Director Jissouji Akio (Ultraman, Slver Mask, Tokyo: Last Megalopolis) has been confirmed as a director on the film. Actress Koizumi Kyouko (Choushojo Reiko, Onmyouji) and Actor to Matsuo Suzuki (Night Head, Gensou Midnight, Koisuru Youchuu) will star. The plot follows a man who desperately looks forward to the return of a woman. The theatrical opening in Japan is set for the fall of 2006.
