Ai who had been playing with the ants by throwing it in an ant lion’s nest lazily fires a retort at the director. No, it might be true that she oozes that mad aura, but come on her character is far too different.
[Yeah, you’re quite insane. Could you try playing the heroine?]
I think that was a tough call since unlike me Ai doesn’t remember the script. I honestly want to refuse.
[No problem. It’s a scene with children playing. There’s no need to stick with the dialogue.]
[However, Ai’s appearance is far from Japanese. Would she fit in the Japanese setting? Wouldn’t that cause inconsistency when Sayuri plays later?]
Nori asked.
[We can fix that with makeup, also realism and reality are two different things. Example Setsuko Hara’s face is fluffy but did she have any trouble acting as a Japanese woman?]
[No her performances were all great. I see now what you meant.]
Nori noddingly approved. No matter how much a future genius author Nori is she is indeed no match to current legends.
[Don’t go putting me in your story. Even if it’s an act, there’s no way I’m playing a role of a loser and a bullied. You want me to kill you, old bastard?]
[Ah! That’s it I wanted that rebellious spirit! Come get in front of the camera!]
