Recently read "Playwright Yuji Sakamoto", most domestic audiences know that the name Yuji Sakamoto should start from "Tokyo Love Story".
However, I think that the real display of Sakamoto's charm and strength, as well as the gradual formation of his personal style, should start with "Mother".
The subsequent "Woman" and "The Most Perfect Divorce" are all skillful works, followed by the brilliant "Quartet", and "Soybean Field Permanently and Three Ex-Husbands", which is also highly discussed in China this year.
In "The Playwright", Sakamoto said that "I have always been careful to portray "people who are not understood in their hearts", and this kind of small act is like a faint glow of fireflies blooming under the dazzling neon lights of the city. ”
The way Yuji Sakamoto writes the script is more interesting, his script often starts with a line, and then thinks about who wants to say this line at the beginning of coordinating the actors;
The second is whether the director and producer give a proposal whether they are interested in an actor, and then carry out the script, such as "The Most Perfect Divorce" starts from Makiko Oino, and "Quartet" starts from Takako Matsu.
The planning of this book can be described as very sincere, not only the interview with Yuji Sakamoto, the interview with the co-actors/interviews, the interview with the director/producer, but also the episode planning books and character resumes of many popular dramas such as "Mother", which is of great reference significance, and some dramas have changed quite a lot from planning to finished films.
It also includes yuji Sakamoto's first screenplay, which was also the winner of the first Fuji TV Youth Script Awards, and it is also the work that put Sakamoto on the path of a writer. After reading it, I feel that even if I look at it now, it is a very thoughtful work, and this was written in the 80s of the last century.
There is also a correspondence between Yuji Sakamoto and Shiina Hayashita, the sentence "Teacher, can anyone who writes songs while crying survive?" It's hard not to think of the classic line in "Quartet": People who used to cry and eat will be able to survive strongly.
Here are some classic lines from Sakamoto's drama:
Yukina Ayumi Hamasaki: "Eating out, you have to go to the counter to check out, right?" After eating at home, saying "it's delicious" is equivalent to paying the bill, not saying, it is eating the overlord meal."
Ayuko Ayumi Hamasaki: "Like colored pencils, true love is always lost first."
Ayuko Ayumi Hamasaki: "Women who like each other will understand, and men who like each other will become picky."
Hamasaki Yuna: "It's the first person who thinks, and the person who thinks of it first is the family."
Aoyagi Nobu: The so-called family is probably the person who does not say goodbye to the other party. When you meet someone who doesn't want to say goodbye to him, you probably want to marry that person.
BeppuJi: "People who don't throw garbage are also garbage from the point of view of garbage."
Asaki Kunimitsu: It is the first-class workers who can meet the customer's requirements, and the best efforts to complete are second-rate, and third-rate roles like ours, as long as you enjoy the work.
Tamaka Tanaka: The disadvantage is another name for charm.
