Don't Look Up (女優霊)

This is the big sister's studio. We'll put her paints in here.

When she sketches her sister, the sister will be about here.

Right there, in a wicker chair.

¿How about more light from here?

Yes, please do that. Thanks.

¡Good morning!

Good morning.

Hey, Mr. Director.

-¿Getting enough sleep? -You bet.

At least brush your hair.

Murai, Saori's in your hands.

We shot the rehearsal.

Hey, not bad at all.

We got it done.

Mr. Murai, good to see you.

¡Break a leg!

-¡Good morning! -¡Good morning!

Mr. Murai is here.

Hello.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

¿Mr. Murai?

-This is Saori. -Hi.

Hitomi, look right to left, then straght ahead.

Then glare at the camera.

Camera test.

Okay, roll cameras.

¡Action!

Face left, then turn to look forward.

Slowly.

¡Cut!

That's good.

Okay, Saori's turn.

¿Saori, did you see that?

Please do the same thing.

Okay.

Roll cameras.

¡Action!

Give us a smile.

¡Cut!

That's a wrap.

Let's do the hall scene.

We've got film.

Some ends of old reels.

Okay, the hall scene.

Don't shoot this one.

Got it, got it.

¿Can you rehearse your lines? We're not taping the sound.

¿Mr. Murai?

Let's do it.

¡Roll cameras!

Action.

Hey...

After Mom died,

you were just like a mother. You used to play with me.

You'd ask "¿where's Mom?" You never stopped.

It's bedtime for sleepyheads.

That's right.

¡Cut!

"Joyû rei"

I'm telling.

I'm telling on you two.

Good.

Try standing for those lines.

¿Standing?

This is the part where the little sister suddenly blows up at her big sister.

You stand up without even thinking about it.

Let's go from the top.

¡Roll cameras!

¿Tired?

No.

Hey...

¿What?

¿We'll go back to Tokyo after the war is over, right?

¿Who knows what Tokyo will've like?

I want to go home. ¡I hate it here!

They say Japan will lose. We need to think ahead.

¡He's a deserter, that's why he says things like that!

¡If the willagers catch us, we'll all be traitors!

They'll stop...

They'll stop giving us food.

They can hear you upstairs.

I'm telling.

I'm telling on you two.

Good.

Sorry, I forgot to turn it off.

That's okay.

Sorry.

Don't worry about getting the lines. Try standing up this time.

¿Well, yes, but could you talk to him about it?

He's the one who gave me the job.

I can't do anything about it now.

Hitomi's been having problems with her agency.

That's why she's by herself.

Her agent's as hard as nails.

She must not have asked her.

She really likes the script. But I'm the real reason.

¿Is everyone here?

Murai, ¡I hear you're directing!

It's all thanks to you.

¿What was that?

Undeveloped film. It must have gotten in with ours.

It must have been mixed in with the unused stock.

Well, this footage is no good.

It's not your fault. This stuff usually gets thrown out.

We should check all the footage.

Got it.

Excuse me.

¿Could I have this film?

Sure.

Good night.

Bye.

Mr. Murai, ¿is the script ready?

More or less.

The script's not much to go from.

¿Was I right?

Yes.

It surprised me.

They must have scrapped the film.

I wonder when?

¿Have you ever seen an old movie...

and not been able to get it out of your head?

Yeah, I know what you mean.

You know,

I've seen this movie. On TV, when I was a kid.

¿Huh?

They can't have scrapped it.

¿So these are outtakes?

If you go up the stairs, all the way to the top.

There's an attic up there. It was terrifying.

¿How?

I can't remember.

¿Was it like this? ¿Was it really, really scary?

¿How's this?

Looks good.

-¿Will it work? -It's fine.

Let's do a take.

Roll cameras.

¡Action!

¿Is this where they found Mom's body?

It was further downstream.

She drifted a bit.

I'm going back.

¡Cut!

Okay, great.

Let's break for lunch.

So far so good.

Murai's tough.

He's only giving us three cabs.

¿Cabs?

-Cab rides home. -¡I like that!

There's no budget for you.

¿What are you thinking? No way.

¿Mochizuki isn't on set today?

He's doing stand-in.

Let me play him.

¿Are you serious?

¿Are you sure?

¡Mr. Murai!

¡Cut!

-¿Are you okay? -I'm fine.

Great.

¡That's a wrap!

¿Going to the studio?

You bet I am. Oh, You bet I am.

Hi.

¿Do you have a minute?

¿What is it?

¿Have you seen her before?

¿When did you see her on TV?

I must have been in second or third grade.

1970 or 1971. It aired on daytime TV.

¿Mishima Yukio's era? Life hasn't changed a bit since then.

It's not one of ours. Maybe it was a TV show.

¿In a daytime slot? ¿Was it a rerun?

TV...

¿What?

Nothing.

I'll watch it again, and look her up.

Thanks a lot.

Let's run the whole scene.

Roll cameras.

¡Action!

I'll going out to the meeting.

Okay.

I hate talking to them about the air raids.

As if there will ever be air raids here.

But I heard the bell yesterday.

Bye.

Let's do that in two.

Okay.

¡Cut!

¿Time?

1'18''

Let's run it again.

¿What about Hitomi?

This scene is only Saori.

Hitomi, you can take a break.

Thanks.

¿Where's my bag?
