The Japanese film "The Tale of the Second Order" was produced by internationally renowned director Naomi Kawase, and invited Iranian new female director Ada Panhand, who had won the "One Kind of Attention" section of the Cannes Film Festival, to shoot this work depicting the inheritance problems faced by traditional Japanese families. It is performed by well-known Japanese actors Masaya Kato, Shizukawa Ishibashi, Kazuko Shirakawa and others. Japan's well-known pink erotic film queen Shirakawa Kazuko in the 70s in the film incarnated as a conservative family grandmother, bent on her son to remarry and have children to inherit the family business, so that the straightforward and unrestrained Shirakawa shouted super difficult to act, "to figure out the mood of not having a son, but also like a queen of majestic existence, it is really a big challenge." ”
Kazuko Shirakawa, a 73-year-old veteran Japanese actress who is still active in the Japanese film industry, has won the Tanaka Juan Dai Award at the 73rd Mainichi Film Awards and the Golden Glory Award at the 21st Japanese Film Critics Awards for her outstanding contributions to film performances. Now she performs many works in various grandmother figures, but in the early days, her star image can be said to be deeply rooted in the Hearts of the Japanese, and after performing in 1971, the first work of the erotic film Local Mother's Afternoon Love Affair produced by Niho Film Company, she became very popular with the Local Mother series (The Wife of the Earth series) and became the leading actress of erotic films, and Shirakawa can also be said to be the ancestor of the term local mother with erotic taste! For about seven years from 1967 to 1973, Shirakawa shot dozens of works, becoming the most representative actress of Japan's 1970s erotic works, and was given the title of "Queen of The Sun".
After shirakawa married in 1973, he faded out of the big screen, until his comeback in 1976, did not shoot a third-level work, and cooperated with many well-known Japanese directors Masahira Imamura, Morita Yoshimitsu, and Naomi Kawase, successfully transforming from a three-level film goddess into an acting actress, and the works continued. She had previously had cancer to remove her ovaries and was once paralyzed by a cerebral infarction, but she overcame her illness and continued to be active in the film industry. When receiving the Daily Film Awards and awarding the Tanaka Juan Dai Award, she said that when she first filmed the erotic work, her father lost her job, and her sister was also canceled from marriage, and she has been committed to the electric performance, and finally got the affirmation, which made her happy: "I told my family at the first time, my sister was really happy, when she was canceled because of my work, I think back on this road, it has been really turbulent!" If both my parents were still alive, they would be happy for me. ”
Kazuko Shirakawa, who has a straightforward personality, in the new work "The Tale of the Second Order Hall Family", is a strong grandmother who is conservative and wants to protect the family bloodline, who asks for a divorced son to remarry, gives birth to an heir who can continue the incense, so that she who has an open and straightforward personality is difficult to speculate, "After all, I did not think that having a son was a very important thing, and to speculate on that kind of persistent mood really made me distressed." She said that the roles she has played in the past need to express emotions such as sadness, pain, anger, etc., but this time, Iranian female director Ada hopes that she can express all her feelings introvertedly, "The director wants me to be like a queen, majestic, moody and angry." "It was a challenge for her to shout out the performance of "The Tale of the Second Order Hall Family".
Shirakawa said humorously, "I think my acting skills are OK!" But to perform that gritty and introverted feeling, the past way of performing is completely inappropriate, sometimes wonder if it is easy to cope with the past, but found that it is completely impossible, acting is very hard! But she was also sure that in "The Tale of the Second Order Hall Family", she was a face that she had never even seen before, which made her feel very satisfied. This is also her first time working with a foreign director, "I have performed a lot of directors' works, but the first time I worked with a foreign director, I felt in her that the Japanese do not have the female power, this is a fresh experience, let me think that making movies is really a great job!" 」 ”
