The wonderful thing about the young love novel "The Adult Style of Love" is that the two lines at the end will shock the reader so much that it once became a topic of conversation, and the film will also show such a twist in the last 5 minutes.
Based on Dry Walnut's novel of the same name, "The Adult Style of Love" is a rather ingenious love mystery novel, ranked sixth in the top ten Benge mystery novels in 2005, and sold 210,000 copies within a month after the promotion of the qingtan program "Small Talk 007" in 2014. • The author's elaborate reversal structure claims to have deceived "1.4 million readers",
"The Adult Style of Love" is divided into two parts: "Shizuoka Chapter" and "Tokyo Chapter", with Shota Matsuda playing Suzuki, a college student who came to Tokyo from Shizuoka Prefecture, and a long-distance love affair with Mayu (Atsuko Maeda), a dental assistant who stays in Shizuoka. Suzuki meets Miyako (Fumino Kimura) in Tokyo, and the three fall into a triangular relationship.
The story is sharply separated by the a and b sides of the music cassette, and in addition to distinguishing between Shizuoka and Tokyo, it also hints at the storyline. The title of each chapter is named after popular songs from the Showa era, totaling 12 songs, which are referenced in the movie version. The original soundtracks containing these songs were released at the same time.
In the novel, a TV series that Cocoon loves to watch, "The Tale of 7 Men and Women Autumn Story", was produced and screened by TBS in 1987, and the two main actors in this series, Kataoka Tsurutaro and Rimi Tezuka, were also invited to the crew of "The Adult Style of Love" and played the parents of Miyako Iwamaru.
The producers have specially planned the "Love Adult Train", which is located in Shizuoka and has been running for a month since May 15, 2015, with posters and promotional materials for the film in silver bodies and carriages, the saddles designed in red, and the handles designed in pink heart shapes.
A side: At a sorority, Yuki Suzuki, an obese and unassuming college student, meets a beautiful girl, Cocoon (Atsuko Maeda). He helped the other party to break the siege, and the other party seemed to have a good feeling for him. In the days that followed, the two saw each other increase, and with Cocoon's encouragement and advice, Suzuki tried to change his look and strive to become the ideal man in the girl's mind. That Christmas that year, their love reached its peak.
B-side: After graduating from university, Suzuki entered the workplace and went to Tokyo for further study according to the company's arrangement, so he had to experience a long-distance relationship with Cocoon. At first, everything is fine, but as time goes by, a gap gradually emerges between the two, and Suzuki, who is far away in Tokyo, meets a beautiful female colleague Miyako (Fumino Kimura), and the balance of love is further tilted...
