After 26 years, the Japanese movie "Love Letter" was re-screened in the mainland.
At that time, the love story and aesthetic picture that caused a sensation were interpreted by several protagonists in the film.
A sentence of "How are you?" I'm fine," cried out through Miho Nakayama, which still echoes in my ears after so many years. And the pure love of the teenager Fujii Tree played by Kashiwara Takashi to the young fuji tree makes countless viewers can't help but recall their youth. And whether his feelings for Watanabe Hiroko after he became an adult or not, whether they are true love or not, has become a permanent secret.
When the film was re-screened, what happened to the male and female protagonists of the year and the two Fujii trees now has naturally become one of the topics of concern for the audience and friends.
Then let's unveil the curtain of time and see the youth idols of the past!
Miho Nakayama
26 years ago, director Shunji Iwai used Miho Nakayama to play the "twin flowers" of the young girl Fujii Tree and Watanabe Hiroko, which is still enjoyed by people. At that time, Miho Nakayama was the national goddess of Japan, with a unique temperament. But there was some fortitude and some sadness in her eyebrows, which came from her not very happy childhood.
When she was 3 years old, her parents divorced. The father married a new family, and the mother took Miho Nakayama and her sister to start an embarrassing life of begging for a living everywhere.
Later, she wrote in the essay collection "Why There Is a Gentle City": When I was a child, I lived in a relative's house and sent people under the fence for a long time, which is a terrible memory.
As the days passed, the pressure of raising two children alone made Miho Nakayama's mother become more and more irritable, and it became common to speak harshly to the two children.
The dark and sad life has made Miho Nakayama learn to be self-reliant and stubborn from an early age. In the first year of junior high school, she was discovered by a star scout and has since embarked on the road of acting.
It was also that year that she starred in her first film, "Alarm You". Later, she starred in Izumi Tomoko in "Higher Than Pop", which became a hit.
As her popularity grew, she began to venture into the singing industry. Under the company's packaging and publicity, she has also made great achievements in music. With both music and acting, she also ushered in her own love.
Mine Nakayama Toshihiko Yodawara
Her first relationship began in 1991 with the equally famous Toshihiko Tahara.
Toshihiko Tahara is Japan's "Idol Emperor", handsome, well-liked, but very fun-loving.
Because they are all stars, the outside world compares them with Miura Yuwa and Yamaguchi Momoe, but Miho Nakayama does not have the good fortune of Yamaguchi Momoe.
It wasn't long before the two ended up breaking up.
She once wrote in a book that she had been thrown a kitchen knife by a man who lived with her, and that she had attacked her in the face, without any scruples.
Some media speculated that the person who threw the kitchen knife was Toshihiko Tahara.
In the same year, she fell in love with the composer Inoue Yoshim again, and the relationship was even more unresolved.
Emotionally failed, she made 6 works in the four years from 1994 to 1998, and "Love Letters" was one of them.
In the movie, Miho Nakayama plays two roles, playing Hiroko and playing Fujii.
In the opening scene of the movie, she stands in the white snow, looking up to the sky to feel the snowflakes, and the series of long shots has amazed many people and become the illusion of countless movie fans.
Finally, she came to the snowy mountain again, looked into the endless distance, and shouted, "Fujii Tree, how are you?" I'm fine..."
The sound melted into the snow, spread and swirled, and the beauty became a beautiful picture.
After the release of this film, a wind of pure love was set off in the country.
Later, it was introduced by South Korea and China, and also achieved good results.
Some media have made a selection, judging the "15 unsurpassable heroines in the movie", Miho Nakayama's "Love Letter", impressively listed, alongside her, is "Gone with the Wind" Vivien Leigh, "Roman Holiday" Hepburn, and "Oriental Undefeated" Lin Qingxia. This role has thus become a symbol of her life. According to statistics, she won the "Blue Ribbon", the Yokohama Film Festival, and the Takasaki Film Festival. The glory is unprecedented in Japan.
Not long after that, Miho Nakayama continued to take the literary route and participated in the movie "Tokyo Nichiwa", which became her second masterpiece. Director Naoto Takenaka said that before filming, he had always admired Miho Nakayama, always dreaming of one day, he would have the opportunity to direct a movie, and the heroine must ask Miho Nakayama. For this film, Miho Nakayama won the Best Actress Award at the Film Academy Awards. She was praised by the media as "Japan's first beauty".
The emotional wounds of the past are also dissolved in the joy of this career.
And almost at the same time, Nakayama Miho did not return and threw herself into a new relationship. She was with the writer Tsuji In-sung.
Tsuji is 10 years older than Miho Nakayama and has won the Wasagawa Prize (as anyone familiar with Japanese literature knows how good this prize is). At the same time, he is also a musician, and a film director, which can be described as talented. Miho Nakayama's comeback work, "Goodbye, One Day", is his work, in which the sentence "Timid about love, it is best to buy an umbrella first", I don't know how many women who love timidity have been inspired.
After 8 months of dating, they flashed marriage.

This time, she became much calmer, not only for the sake of her loved ones to move to Paris, but also decisively changed her previous bad habits, got up at 6 o'clock every day, made her own breakfast, picked up the school she had lost, went to learn French, and supplemented embroidery by the way.
Before long, she gave birth to a son, and her life became more fulfilling. The Japanese media once reported that a fan of Miho Nakayama met her in Paris and found that she was completely different from the TV, her skin was very dark, but the atmosphere of love around her was very strong, and she was very close to her husband and son, completely without the sharpness of the past.
The story seems to end here, and Cinderella finally finds the right person and lives happily ever after.
But Miho Nakayama still did not get the favor of fate, and fate took a sharp turn again.
In 2014, Miho Nakayama announced that the 12-year marriage had ended. The child belongs to the man, and she lives alone. As for why she divorced, Miho Nakayama didn't say much.
In the past 44 years, she has gained several times and lost several times, and such an ups and downs of her emotional life is really not something that ordinary women can bear.
But Miho Nakayama, as always, lived a sparkling and imposing life.
In 2016, after two years of divorce, Miho Nakayama was once again at the top of the Japanese drama with a "Sage's Love".
Later, Miho Nakayama was photographed by the media holding hands with Keiichiro Shibutani, a 3-year-old musician, and spending the night at the man's house. As a result, Miho Nakayama was collectively banned by the Japanese media, and her popularity began to stagnate, and the scale of the works she took over after her divorce began to grow larger, and the goddess-like face began to lose shape.
The face is puffy, fat and thin, which is very different from the elegant image of the past. A generation of white moonlight, just like this, became so old and unbearable, teaching people to sigh endlessly.
Takashi Kashiwara:
Because of a "love letter", everyone fell in love with the male Fujii tree, this shy and shy teenager.
Although he does not have many scenes in the play, the way he wants to say it but does not dare to say it, and he wants to love but is not good at expressing it, has made him the dream lover of many young girls.
Takashi Kashiwara has been cute and handsome since he was a child.
In his junior year of high school, at the age of 16, he participated in the audition contest sponsored by Junon Magazine and won the championship, and has since embarked on the road of acting.
After the audition, Kashiwara's first play was "Shadow of Youth", but this performance left a very bad impression on him, so he decided to return to his hometown to enter the university.
At this time, the boss of his company asked him to go to the "Love Letter" crew for an interview, because there he could meet Kashiwara's favorite Nakayama Miho.
In order to meet the goddess in his heart, he went to the interview and successfully got the role of "Fujii Tree".
Even during the filming of "Love Letters", Kashiwara Takashi's idea of quitting the show business never changed. After that, he starred in film and television dramas such as "A Kiss and a Promise", "White Line Flow", "Edge of the Heart", etc., and the star path can be described as smooth sailing. Takashi Kashiwara also formed a rock band with several friends and gave concerts everywhere. During the filming of "Mischievous Kiss", he met his wife, Hiroko Hatano, who was still working as a model, and after 4 years of love, the two were married in a low-key manner.

But the good times did not last long, and after half a year of marriage, Kashiwara Takashi had a physical conflict with others, which affected his future. At the same time, his marriage came to an end.
After the divorce, Kashiwara experienced a few years of lows, after which his relationship with Uchida Yuki was exposed.

In fact, as early as the age of 18, the two of them knew each other. In 1995, also a popular Japanese idol, Kashiwara Takashi and Uchida Yukin collaborated on an advertising collaboration, and for the first time in their lives, they intersected.
They play a couple who are very comfortable standing together and pleasing their eyes.
The second cooperation is the 2001 cooperative TV series "Future Airport". Yuki Uchida plays a foolish stewardess with a rash personality, who meets Takashi Kashiwara, who is cold and hot, and in the filming, their long-term love sparks.
The funny thing is that in the play, Uchida Yuki kneels down and proposes to Kashiwara Takashi.
After being with Uchida, Kashiwara's career gradually improved, and "The Age of The New Mature Woman" won him unanimous praise.
Now the two people have been nearly 20 years, and the sweetness and happiness of getting along has not diminished at the beginning. At the beginning of last year, a reporter photographed Kashiwara picking up Uchida to and from work, and then going to a soba noodle shop together. When he walked out of the restaurant, Kashiwara did not forget to help Uchida lift the curtain.
Compared with Miho Nakayama, Kashiwara's experience is simple and simple, so although he is in his forties, although he has entered the ranks of uncles, his appearance is still very good, and he exudes the charm of a mature man.
