Miike Takashi’s “Ichimei,” Kawase Naomi’s “Hanezu no Tsuki” to compete at Cannes
Posted on April 14, 2011 by tokyograph
It was announced today that Miike Takashi’s upcoming film “Ichimei” will be in competition for the Palme d’Or at the 64th Cannes Film Festival, being held May 11-22, 2011. The movie, first revealed last September, is a 3D remake of Kobayashi Masaki’s 1962 film “Seppuku” (also known as “Harakiri”).
“Ichimei” stars kabuki actor Ichikawa Ebizo, who was involved in a drunken bar incident last November. Although he took a self-imposed break after that scandal, it was just announced this past weekend that he will be returning to the stage this July, and that “Ichimei” is scheduled for theatrical release in Japan this October.
The movie is sure to gain even more attention with its bid for the prestigious Palme d’Or. Indeed, newspapers are touting the fact that it is the first live-action 3D film to compete at any of the three major international film festivals (Cannes, Berlin, Venice). It will be screened with the English title “Hara-Kiri: Death of a Samurai.”
In addition to Ichikawa, the cast includes Eita, Mitsushima Hikari, and Yakusho Koji. Yamagishi Kikumi wrote the screenplay.
“Ichimei” will not be the only Japanese film at Cannes this year. “Hanezu no Tsuki,” the newest film by director Kawase Naomi, will also be in competition. Kawase previously won the Grand Prix (the second-highest award) at Cannes in 2007 for her film “Mogari no Mori.”
The festival’s Un Certain Regard section includes Gus Van Sant’s “Restless,” which has actor Kase Ryo in its cast, and Eric Khoo’s animated film “Tatsumi,” based on Tatsumi Yoshihiro’s manga “A Drifting Life.”

Kawamura Ryuichi successfully performs 100 songs in single concert, earns Guinness World Record
Last year, Kawamura Ryuichi declared that he would attempt to perform 100 songs in a single concert, a feat that would surpass the 70 songs he sang during his “70 no Monogatari” concert in 2008. The new attempt was originally scheduled for March 13th at the Nippon Budokan, but due to the Tohoku earthquake on March 11th, the concert was postponed until yesterday, May 3rd. And sure enough, Kawamura completed more than 100 songs, achieving a Guinness World Record.
In 2008, Kawamura had achieved 71 songs in 4.5 hours. His goal this time was to reach 100 in 6.5 hours. The concert started at 2:00pm in the afternoon, and after taking three breaks during the show, he finished at some time after 9:00pm. Immediately after the concert, the head of the Japan branch of Guinness World Records presented him with a certificate recognizing his achievement.
Although Kawamura ended up singing a total of 104 songs, his official record is for becoming the first solo artist to perform 100 songs within 8 hours. Guinness currently keeps only three categories for this kind of record – 1 hour, 8 hours, and 24 hours.
Kawamura divided the show into three parts, roughly corresponding to different periods of his career. He started with his hits from the time of his debut, working his way through his discography. He also changed outfits to match the themes of the different parts
Approximately 8,000 fans were in attendance for the concert. In consideration of the power shortages facing Japan since the earthquake, Kawamura performed the show with about 30% less electricity than a typical show.
