00:05:59This fresh herb tea is grown right here in her garden.
00:06:07I hope you realize just how lucky you are.
00:06:11She doesn't normally allow anyone to interview her.
00:06:15Well, we went to a lot of trouble just trying to find her.
00:06:19And this is quite an honor for me.
00:06:22Oh, please. Now, you said you had something special to give her?
00:06:26Ah. Well...
00:06:28You're a lucky man.
00:06:29Usually the earth has to move before she'll meet anyone.
00:06:33What did you say has to move, Mino?
00:06:35Oh, the earth, ma'am.
00:06:37I was just talking to these gentlemen about the earthquake this morning.
00:06:42My word, yes. Wasn't that something?
00:06:45You know, I thought my time had finally come.
00:06:50How do you do? I am Chiyoko.
00:06:53It's a great honor to meet you.
00:06:55I... well, this is a great and memorable day for us.
00:06:59No need to be so formal.
00:07:02Oh. Studio...
00:07:05Studio Rutasu.
00:07:06You know, the lotus?
00:07:08Oh, I love lotuses.
00:07:11I must confess, I already knew that.
00:07:14It's how the studio got its name.
00:07:16They'll soon be in bloom.
00:07:19In my garden.
00:07:21In poetry, the lotus is a symbol of...
00:07:24Purity. Yes. Simple purity.
00:07:30Well now, Mr. Takibana.
00:07:32You, uh...
00:07:34Oh, uh...
00:07:35Yes, of course.
00:07:36Forgive me.
00:07:43I...
00:07:43I kept hold of this.
00:07:46I kept hold of it, hoping...
00:07:48That eventually I might find you.
00:07:51So...
00:07:52I haven't thought about this for years.
00:08:00Was it...
00:08:01Was it the key to something important?
00:08:04Oh, yes.
00:08:06The key to the most important thing there is.
00:08:11Thank you for bringing this.
00:08:13But...
00:08:14Where did you find it, Mr. Takibana?
00:08:17Uh...
00:08:18Well, let me see now.
00:08:20I...
00:08:20That is, someone found it...
00:08:22At the old Guinea Studios, I...
00:08:24Think.
00:08:26I never thought I would hold this in my hands again.
00:08:32Ah!
00:08:33Not again!
00:08:34Oh, it would seem the Earth is telling us to get started.
00:08:46Shall we begin the interview, Mr. Takibana?
00:08:50Oh, yes, of course.
00:08:53My life has always felt tied to earthquakes.
00:08:57In fact, I came into this world during a particularly violent one.
00:09:04It was the Great Kanto Earthquake.
00:09:08My father had so wanted a child.
00:09:11But he was killed.
00:09:14It was as though his life had been taken in exchange for mine.
00:09:20My mother ran the business he had left, and...
00:09:24We were able to live comfortably enough.
00:09:31I grew up in a very dangerous world.
00:09:34One period of unrest and turmoil followed another.
00:09:39And the political ideology of the day had veered sharply to the right.
00:09:51Not that I cared much.
00:09:54Girls' magazines were more important to me back then.
00:09:57I'd gaze at the pictures for hours, dreaming of the day I should meet my prince.
00:10:04And this was around the time that the studio discovered you?
00:10:09Yes.
00:10:10Although I don't suppose I'll ever really know what the Guinea studio executive saw in a snub-nosed little girl like me.
00:10:18Madam, is there nothing I can say?
00:10:31Nothing.
00:10:32Sir, my mother believes that...
00:10:36To be an actress is to be a member of a somewhat dubious profession.
00:10:41A dubious profession?
00:10:42She called it that?
00:10:43Madam, our new film is to be set in Manchuria.
00:10:49Think what a boost it'll be to the morale of our soldiers there, and how much it will mean to the whole country.
00:10:55Surely Chiyoko would be proud to be of service to her homeland.
00:10:59I... you...
00:11:01Oh, this timid child's no actress.
00:11:03She will have more than enough to do in finding a husband, taking over the running of the store, and, of course, raising a family.
00:11:11Don't worry.
00:11:12A candy store means more than her country!
00:11:15Well, a woman can serve her country by staying at home and raising a family.
00:11:20Or am I mistaken?
00:11:24Huh.
00:11:31Huh.
00:12:00Huh.
00:12:00Hey, I...
00:12:14What are we shooting?
00:12:23Keep filming.
00:12:25I feel like a stalker, man.
00:12:30I'm sorry.
00:12:34Are you all right?
00:12:37I was in a hurry.
00:12:47This is how it all begins.
00:12:49All I can see is your head.
00:12:55He's not here!
00:12:57Go that way!
00:13:00I'm here.
00:13:14Did you see a man come down this way?
00:13:16Carrying something wrapped in a cloth, perhaps?
00:13:19He ran down that way.
00:13:36Come on!
00:13:37Hmm?
00:13:40Huh?
00:13:41Hey.
00:13:42Okay.
00:14:12There's a lot of guts to shelter someone like that.
00:14:37I wanna know who that guy is.
00:14:40Could I see?
00:14:44It's nothing.
00:14:46Just a sketch.
00:14:48It's to help me remember so I can finish the painting when I get home.
00:14:52By which time it will be winter there.
00:14:55And so white.
00:14:57White as far as the eye can see.
00:15:01I wanna set my easel up in the midst of all that snow.
00:15:05To finish the painting when I'm so cold that it hurts.
00:15:09In those pure wet surroundings you feel as though you're standing on a strange and distant planet.
00:15:19I'd love to go, to see that.
00:15:29Why not?
00:15:30I'll invite you myself.
00:15:31When all this madness is over and peace has come to my homeland.
00:15:40Oh.
00:15:41Look.
00:15:42The full moon.
00:15:43That's not until tomorrow.
00:15:47But I like this moon the best.
00:15:48After the full moon everything starts to wane.
00:15:57But with this penultimate moon there is still tomorrow.
00:16:00And so there is still hope.
00:16:04I have to go now.
00:16:07What?
00:16:08But you can't.
00:16:09You're hurt.
00:16:10Even now my friends fight in Manchuria.
00:16:14But a paintbrush isn't much use where they are.
00:16:19Do one thing for me.
00:16:22And take this.
00:16:24It's the key to the most important thing there is.
00:16:27What's the most important thing?
00:16:30Take a guess.
00:16:31Oh.
00:16:32I don't know.
00:16:33But please don't tell me.
00:16:34I bet I can guess it tomorrow.
00:16:35Is it a deal?
00:16:36So tell us everything.
00:16:37You've fallen in love with someone haven't you?
00:16:38First love.
00:16:39I have no-
00:16:46I have no-
00:17:03Ah, that's just so sweet.
00:17:13Yeah, I guess you forget how hard it is to be young.
00:17:33Isn't that the same old key you gave her?
00:18:03He can't have gone that far. Come on, look everywhere.
00:18:18Oh, Miss Chiyoko!
00:18:21You're safe!
00:18:22Thank heavens! There was a thief hiding in the stockroom!
00:18:26It's all right. He made it to the station.
00:18:29I'm so glad that you weren't harmed, Miss.
00:18:33Way to go. Good call.
00:19:03Come on!
00:19:16Oh, man.
00:19:33This is like hard work, Chief.
00:19:35I'll come. I will. I'll come to you.
00:19:59That's what I call dramatic.
00:20:08I know!
00:20:10Whoa!
00:20:12So sad. I cry every time I watch this scene.
00:20:18When did this become a movie?
00:20:20Right then. That's when I decided to become an actress.
00:20:26Yes. Yes, I understand.
00:20:29And how did it begin?
00:20:32Say what?
00:20:34Remember the executive?
00:20:36And what he said about the next film?
00:20:39That it was to be made in Manchuria.
00:20:43Manchuria? Of course.
00:20:45I can't thank you enough, Chiyoko.
00:20:49But I had a feeling you might say yes.
00:20:51You were right, sir.
00:20:53I have a duty to serve my country.
00:20:56Don't I, Mother?
00:20:57Hmm.
00:20:58Now I get it.
00:21:00You did it because you were following that man, weren't you?
00:21:04Yep.
00:21:05I really didn't care about the movies at all.
00:21:08Chiyoko!
00:21:09Chiyoko!
00:21:09This is Chiyoko.
00:21:13She'll be playing the lead in this movie.
00:21:15How do you do?
00:21:17I don't need to ask if you recognize Shimao Eko.
00:21:21Not just our own, but the country's biggest star.
00:21:24What nonsense.
00:21:25Nice to meet you, Chikei.
00:21:26My, we do look pensive.
00:21:47Hey, what do you think you're doing?
00:21:51Isn't that...
00:21:53Give it back to me, please.
00:21:55It looks like Uncle did it.
00:21:56Finally found me an actress.
00:21:59Well, you certainly don't waste any time.
00:22:05Getting a grip on things.
00:22:07Chiziko, right?
00:22:09Chiyoko!
00:22:10I see.
00:22:11Well, this is Mr. Otake, the executive's dearest nephew,
00:22:14and a very promising director.
00:22:17Mr. Otake just loves auditioning actresses.
00:22:23Sorry, I shouldn't be such a tease.
00:22:26It's just someone left this with me.
00:22:29It may sound silly, but if I see him in Manchuria, I can give it back.
00:22:33We're not going there for fun, you know.
00:22:36So who is he?
00:22:38And what's the guy's name?
00:22:39I'm not sure.
00:22:40I'm not sure.
00:22:42So how will you find your mystery bow?
00:22:45Well, I know he paints.
00:22:46Paints what?
00:22:47I'm not sure.
00:22:49Not sure of that either?
00:22:51No, I'm not.
00:22:53But he is in Manchuria.
00:22:55I'm sure of that.
00:22:56Oh, really?
00:22:59I've never heard of a man like that.
00:23:01Yes, I remember this.
00:23:05But I'm sure that he's around here somewhere.
00:23:08Look, kid, I don't need amateurs hanging around here.
00:23:10Get it?
00:23:11You can't get rid of me.
00:23:13I won't give up that easily.
00:23:15I crossed an ocean to get here, but you don't understand.
00:23:19Now I...
00:23:20I just can't...
00:23:23Otaki!
00:23:24What the hell is going on here?
00:23:26This child doesn't even know her damn lines.
00:23:29Okay, okay.
00:23:33Listen, Chiyoko.
00:23:35Just be the character.
00:23:36If you can do that, the lines will come pouring out of your mouth as though you were born to say them.
00:23:41Yes, sir.
00:23:42See, I told you!
00:23:43This is no role for an amateur.
00:23:47I just want...
00:23:48I just want to see him one more time.
00:23:54Beautiful.
00:23:55Beautiful!
00:23:56Let's go for a take.
00:23:57Move it, everyone!
00:23:59You were great in that.
00:24:01That was quite impressive.
00:24:03So, you can actually act.
00:24:08Hey, what's getting into you?
00:24:09You freaking out?
00:24:11Have you got any clues yet?
00:24:13About the guy who owns the key?
00:24:14Surely you're not about to give up on your adventure.
00:24:20Why don't you try a fortune teller?
00:24:25There's one quite near here.
00:24:28Really knows his stuff, so I'm told.
00:24:30Well now, the man you are searching for is in the north.
00:24:40He's very tall, and he's a painter.
00:24:43Oh?
00:24:44Would he happen to be searching for a key?
00:24:48That's him.
00:24:49You know him?
00:24:54If it is the same man, then perhaps...
00:24:57I know it's him.
00:24:59Please tell me where I might find him.
00:25:00Well, it wasn't very professional to leave the chute, huh, Chief?
00:25:17You're too young.
00:25:19You just don't understand women.
00:25:21Oh, I suppose you're the world's greatest authority?
00:25:23Whoever this guy is, he's one lucky dog.
00:25:32Having a girl like that willing to follow him this far.
00:25:37I wish I were that dog.
00:25:45Chiyoko!
00:25:46Chiyoko!
00:25:47Must be nationalists!
00:25:49Or the communists!
00:25:51Look, there!
00:25:53Chiyoko, it's Fujiwara!
00:26:01Whoa!
00:26:03Is this really happening?
00:26:04Whoa!
00:26:05Can you hear me?
00:26:08Speak to me, Chiyoko.
00:26:09Please speak to me.
00:26:12Forgive me.
00:26:13I'm sorry.
00:26:14Come on, Chief.
00:26:15We need to get out of here.
00:26:16Now!
00:26:16No!
00:26:17Ah!
00:26:23What the?
00:26:51Hey, where'd all the bandits go?
00:26:56What is it?
00:26:57What's going on?
00:26:59I've been asking that question all day.
00:27:01And what the heck happened to Manchuria?
00:27:06Look out!
00:27:07Down!
00:27:14Your Royal Highness!
00:27:16Tell me, where is he?
00:27:18My lord is in the castle.
00:27:22Your Highness, you mustn't!
00:27:24No!
00:27:42My lord!
00:27:44Oh, no!
00:27:45My lord!
00:27:49Oh, why did you go, my lord?
00:27:51Why did you not wait for me?
00:27:55No.
00:27:56It's so sad.
00:27:57Hey, get a grip, Chief.
00:28:13Stay your hand.
00:28:21Are you a ghost or a spirit?
00:28:34Why do you haunt me?
00:28:36Call me what you will, child.
00:28:38You do not know me, but I know all about you.
00:28:42I have known you all your life since the day you were born.
00:28:47Be that as it may, why are you here before me?
00:28:50Tell me now, old hag, have you come to help me die?
00:28:57Take this and drink it.
00:29:01That which you may not find in this world
00:29:03will most certainly be found in the next, my child.
00:29:09And if I'm to find it, I must die?
00:29:13He awaits you there.
00:29:20You have drunk the tea of life
00:29:34You have drunk the tea of life that will last a thousand years.
00:29:51You will burn forever in the flames of eternal love.
00:29:55You lied to me.
00:29:56Yes, I lied to you, you fool, because I hate you more than I can bear.
00:30:01And yet, I also love you more than I can bear my child.
00:30:08One day, you will understand.
00:30:11Where are you going?
00:30:36Ah, damn it. Your royal highness, I...
00:30:42Gannemon, marshal of Nagato, at your service, ma'am.
00:30:50Since when, exactly?
00:30:51In order to save your highness, Nagato will give up his own worthless life.
00:30:57I thank you, but I shall never leave my lord.
00:31:07Go, spirit. Go to hell.
00:31:10Highness, I regret to inform you, my lord has been taken prisoner.
00:31:14Is it true? My lord is still alive?
00:31:17Highness, you must return to your land immediately.
00:31:27Now I shall save my lord.
00:31:36Keep up with us!
00:31:41Yeah? Well, it ain't that easy.
00:31:44Your highness!
00:31:46Keep going! I must get to my lord!
00:31:49Nagato!
00:32:07Oh, your highness!
00:32:11No! No!
00:32:14No! Nagato!
00:32:17Your highness!
00:32:20Nagato, I will never forget your loyalty!
00:32:23Fortune smiles on you!
00:32:26Oh, it seems like only yesterday.
00:32:36Don't mind me. I couldn't help myself.
00:32:38Oh, please don't apologize, Miss Fujiwara. I enjoyed it, and it was an honor just to be involved.
00:32:45You're too kind.
00:32:47Now then, I...
00:32:48Oh, no, I'm sorry. It's no good. Where was I?
00:32:51Uh, you were breaking through the enemy.
00:32:54Like where Nagato gets horribly wounded?
00:32:57Oh, yes.
00:32:59Yes, and of course, they had a prisoner.
00:33:03Well, I had to help him somehow.
00:33:06Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:33:36Come on!
00:33:37Oh, my god, the prisoner! Don't let him escape!
00:33:42It's me. Don't worry. You're safe now.
00:33:46Think you can outwit me, girl? Well, think again!
00:33:56Did the princess really do that?
00:33:59Ha!
00:34:00Uh-huh.
00:34:01Behind you, Chiyoko.
00:34:14Yeah!
00:34:19Put an end to this. Finish her.
00:34:21Not so fast.
00:34:22What? Who are you? Answer me!
00:34:28Oh, boy. Not again.
00:34:31My name is of no importance, samurai.
00:34:37Every time I turn around, you're there.
00:34:40Kill the interloper!
00:34:42Sorry, but I am not yet ready to die.
00:34:55But why are you looking out for me like this?
00:34:57That I'm afraid I cannot help.
00:35:00Just as you could not help but come to the rescue of that young man,
00:35:04it's the same with me.
00:35:05Yes, but I'm... I'm in love with that man.
00:35:10There is nothing more to say.
00:35:13Go now. You can leave the rest to me.
00:35:16Go at once.
00:35:17I do not want your thanks.
00:35:21To die for the woman I love.
00:35:24Yes, it has always been my desire.
00:35:27Yeah, and it's my desire to get you some therapy.
00:35:30Come on! Face me! One at a time or all together.
00:35:35Wait! Look! Reinforcements are coming!
00:35:53Why, you cunning little...
00:35:55Now, where is he? Tell me!
00:36:00They weren't so tough.
00:36:05Wait for me, Chiyoko!
00:36:07Wait! I'm coming!
00:36:09By now, child, his head will already be on display in the capital.
00:36:14In Kyoto?
00:36:15No.
00:36:16It's all over for him, and now, it's time for you.
00:36:25Kyoto. He's in Kyoto.
00:36:27Please have pity.
00:36:33No pity. I will not let you see him.
00:36:36But I'll come back. I promise.
00:36:39I just want to visit him once, to see him once, and give him what is his.
00:36:43Why should he see you?
00:36:45A man about to be executed is not in need of anything.
00:36:48Or maybe you want to see him just to gloat.
00:36:52You poor little fool.
00:36:55Yes, child, you may pursue him all over the world.
00:36:59Follow him for as long as it takes, but you cannot escape your fate.
00:37:02There's no escape. Not for you or for her.
00:37:10Don't just stand there gawping, you fools. Take her away.
00:37:14Come on, you. On your feet.
00:37:15Let me go! I must go to him! Please! I must see him! Let me go!
00:37:20So, now we're in Kyoto?
00:37:26Hey, faster than a speeding bullet train.
00:37:30In another age, too.
00:37:32Oh, loving the outfits, guys.
00:37:34Uh, where, where is she?
00:37:37Huh?
00:37:37Where, where does Choco now?
00:37:41You know, Chief, you're not dressed for this period.
00:37:44Don't you stare at me like that.
00:37:58I taught you everything you know, and you have brought shame upon me.
00:38:02You will listen to reason.
00:38:05What a little fool, making Eiko lose her temper like that.
00:38:09She got what she deserved.
00:38:10She's too stuck up. She doesn't know her place.
00:38:13Just because a few men like her, she thinks she's a geisha.
00:38:18Watch her.
00:38:19Oh, and make sure she doesn't run away again.
00:38:22Yes, ma'am.
00:38:28Wasn't this supposed to be a documentary?
00:38:30Oh, love the hair, by the way.
00:38:32Damn right it is, boy.
00:38:34And it's called The Seven Spectres, The Legend of Chiyoko Fujiwara!
00:38:42Great.
00:38:43You old guys are so dramatic.
00:38:50Are you feeling all right, miss?
00:38:53I'm fine, really. Thank you.
00:38:56Now you must leave everything to me.
00:39:00Well, this way. Come on.
00:39:02Now, from what I understand, he's in the city.
00:39:10Surely you don't think I'd leave you locked up here.
00:39:14I shall never forget what you've done for me.
00:39:17Ah.
00:39:18Ah.
00:39:19When you first came here, I felt that I knew you already.
00:39:22I hoped one day that I could help you.
00:39:24Ah, never since that time, Chiyoko.
00:39:27Ever since that fateful moment when I first set eyes on you.
00:39:30I have felt...
00:39:32I have felt...
00:39:34Oh.
00:39:35Chiyoko, I...
00:39:37Really should pay attention.
00:39:39Did you hear?
00:39:46It was a jailbreak.
00:39:47Yes.
00:39:48Some of those rebel samurai got away.
00:39:50Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:40:15I'm so sorry.
00:40:20But it's me.
00:40:23Do you not remember?
00:40:25Oh, you must.
00:40:26It was a winter's day much like this that we first met.
00:40:33I want to...
00:40:35Oh, I've been searching for you everywhere.
00:40:42I wanted to give this back to you.
00:40:45Over here!
00:40:46Over here!
00:40:46Get away!
00:40:47Wait!
00:40:48Your key!
00:40:49Come back!
00:40:50I have it here!
00:40:56Keep it until we meet again.
00:41:04Over here!
00:41:05Hurry!
00:41:11A samurai ran down this way.
00:41:13I think that you saw him.
00:41:16You will tell me where he went.
00:41:19The man that you want ran in that direction.
00:41:27One moment.
00:41:29I've seen you before.
00:41:33There's something you're not telling me.
00:41:36Something you're trying to hide.
00:41:39Tell me now.
00:41:41It could be your last chance.
00:41:43Which way did he go?
00:41:45Have no fear, miss.
00:41:50I am here to protect you.
00:41:54Right.
00:41:54Here in the nick of time to rescue us all.
00:41:57You scum.
00:41:58You're one of those anti-government rebels.
00:42:01And you're the kind of fool who doesn't realize when his time has come.
00:42:05Climb aboard and leave them to me.
00:42:09I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:13Climb aboard and leave them to me.
00:42:23I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:26I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:27I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:28I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:29I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:30I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:31I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:32I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:33I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:34I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:35I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:36I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:37I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:38I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:39I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:40I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:41I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:42I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:43I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:44I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:45I guess she took me at my word.
00:42:46To be continued...
00:43:16You show such kindness to a humble man, it's an honor to serve someone with such compassion, someone who...
00:43:23And what do you think you're doing skipping school, miss?
00:43:48Off to meet some young man, some human rights agitator maybe.
00:43:53I, uh, please, I don't understand.
00:43:56We have proof, girl. It would seem this man left you a little memento on your storeroom wall.
00:44:04He did that? I mean, what?
00:44:06So you do know him. That's all I need.
00:44:10We'll continue this at the station. You can tell us the whole story there.
00:44:18You really are a stubborn little girl, aren't you?
00:44:38Why couldn't you just tell them what they wanted to know?
00:44:44I can't tell them anything, because I don't know anything.
00:44:49But even if I did know something, I wouldn't tell them. I'd never betray him.
00:44:59Really?
00:45:01Listen to the little fool. Sure, you say that right now. But wait and see, my girl. Your feelings will change given enough time.
00:45:11I'll never change. You'll never understand. I love him more every day.
00:45:20They're all the same. They're all men.
00:45:24Well, she would say that. I hear she gave her man all the money she'd ever earned.
00:45:29That's right. Then the swine ran off with someone else. Really?
00:45:35I could do with a woman like that with money. Huh?
00:45:43Is that you, Chief?
00:45:48Now what? No, no, no. Don't tell me.
00:45:50I have come to take you to safety.
00:45:56Who are you?
00:45:57Have you forgotten?
00:45:59Nagato, a humble rickshaw man. And I'm here as I promised.
00:46:05Here to repay your kindness.
00:46:07So is this... Am I really going to be released?
00:46:20Didn't I tell you you would be? Let's go.
00:46:23Yeah, go. We don't need you anymore. We caught him anyway.
00:46:27Huh?
00:46:37Wait! Please! Wait! Listen to me! You can't!
00:46:53Stop! You can't!
00:47:00Open the door! Open the door! I just want to see him!
00:47:03You can't leave me like this!
00:47:07I'm begging you! Please open the door! Let me see him!
00:47:12I must see him!
00:47:18Please!
00:47:28Now where are we going?
00:47:37To what's this, Sci-Fi?
00:47:38You idiot!
00:47:39Is this your idea of gratitude?
00:47:40But the store has...
00:47:41No!
00:47:42No!
00:47:43No!
00:47:44No!
00:47:45No!
00:47:46No!
00:47:47No!
00:47:48No!
00:47:49No!
00:47:50No!
00:47:51No!
00:47:52No!
00:47:53No!
00:47:54No!
00:47:55No!
00:47:56No!
00:47:57No!
00:47:58No!
00:47:59No!
00:48:00No!
00:48:01No!
00:48:02No!
00:48:03No!
00:48:04No!
00:48:05No!
00:48:06No!
00:48:11No!
00:48:12No!
00:48:13No!
00:48:14Idiot! What are you thinking? That you can just throw your life away?
00:48:19Chiyoko! Chiyoko! Chiyoko! Chiyoko! Hurry, Chiyoko!
00:48:23Chiyoko, come back here! Chiyoko! Hurry, Chiyoko!
00:48:25Chiyoko, come back! Hurry, Chiyoko! Hurry, come back! Hurry!

00:50:09Chiyoko, come back!
00:50:11Chiyoko, come back!
00:50:13Kiyoko!
00:50:41This isn't good.
00:50:43Chiyoko.
00:50:45Chiyoko, speak to me.
00:50:49I think she's...
00:50:53Chiyoko!
00:51:07You cannot escape!
00:51:10You cannot escape!
00:51:14Chiyoko!
00:51:16Chiyoko!
00:51:18Chiyoko!
00:51:20Chiyoko!

00:52:26Chiyoko!
00:52:28Chiyoko!
00:52:30Chiyoko!
00:52:32Chiyoko!
00:52:34meet my love again someday. The world had changed of course and I had absolutely no
00:52:43idea how to find him. What could I do? I guess there was always the chance he'd
00:52:53see one of my films. That's right. In the mid-fifties you were at the absolute
00:52:59peak of your career. Huh? No I don't believe it. It's you. My secret's out. You mean that that you
00:53:12yourself were at Guinea in Otaki's unit? Well yes but in much too minor a position for you to have
00:53:20even noticed me. Why the secrecy? Oh you should have told me. I well you know I it's not like
00:53:29I was a director or even one of the crew chiefs. Besides I was always making Mr. Otaki angry.
00:53:39Genya Takebana at your service sir.
00:53:44Just don't screw up okay? Miss Eiko this is Genya the new apprentice. I've long been a great admirer
00:53:54of the scenes between you and Shiyoko Fujiwara. Yes she's learned a lot from me.
00:54:05Don't ever mention Shiyoko in front of her idiot. Remember one thing kid. In this business that we
00:54:11call show we flatter both the audiences and the actresses see. One of these days I'll show you how.
00:54:19Oh right thanks. Catch. Got it.
00:54:27Well I certainly fell for it didn't I? Otaki.
00:54:31In movies the director is a lot like a painter. A painter may look for a color. Something which he uses
00:54:55is to create beauty. Affection. I've been lucky to find an astonishing color for my canvas.
00:55:03And that color is you Chioko.
00:55:12Ha! Well look at him. Trying to seduce her with an old line like that.
00:55:17Yeah, I should give it a try.
00:55:19Yeah, I should give it a try.
00:55:31Oh.
00:55:38I'm sorry.
00:55:39Why you dirty rotten little...
00:55:52Oh!
00:55:53Oh!
00:55:54Oh!
00:55:56Oh!
00:55:57Oh!
00:55:58Oh!
00:55:59Oh!
00:56:00Oh!
00:56:01Oh!
00:56:02Oh!
00:56:03Oh!
00:56:04Oh!
00:56:05Oh!
00:56:06Oh!
00:56:07Oh!
00:56:08Oh!
00:56:09Oh!
00:56:11There.
00:56:16Oh.
00:56:19Oh!
00:56:20Oh!
00:56:21Oh!
00:56:22Oh!
00:56:28Oh!
00:56:33Oh!
00:56:34Oh.
00:56:35Oh!
00:56:36Oh...
00:56:37Look, you can't be everybody's princess forever, you know.
00:56:41A woman's happiness only comes from making a home.
00:56:44Your mind is in the clouds. You need to come back to Earth.
00:56:47But, Mother, I've got to...
00:56:49You realize all the anti-government rebels were set free a long time ago?
00:56:55And he hasn't thought about you, has he?
00:56:58That's not true. I'm going to find him.
00:57:00How? When you don't even know if he's dead or alive?
00:57:05He's alive. I know he's alive.
00:57:07You won't be young forever.
00:57:09But we promised that we would meet someday.
00:57:13You're too old to have the same dreams you had as a girl.
00:57:26Cut!
00:57:31All right, what's wrong?
00:57:34Oh dear, not again.
00:57:36Well, this old woman needs to take a break, gentlemen.
00:57:41Okay, everybody. Take five.
00:57:52No. No.
00:57:54The key's gone.
00:58:02Yes, of course. Today is the day that it happened.
00:58:09Miss Aiko? Miss Aiko?
00:58:10Miss Aiko?
00:58:12Is it time for lunch?
00:58:14No, not quite yet, little soldier.
00:58:16Get out onto the set, would you?
00:58:19We can't have our precious princess upset, can we?
00:58:23Please! Look everywhere for it!
00:58:26I have to find it!
00:58:27It has to be around here somewhere.
00:58:29Genya, don't just stand there. Go and help look for this thing.
00:58:37Yes, sir. Right away.
00:58:40What are we looking for?
00:58:42We're looking for Chiyoko's key.
00:58:44Okay, okay.
00:58:48So Eiko stole Chiyoko's key. Bummer.
00:58:53But we didn't know that at the time.
00:58:56And in the end, the key was nowhere to be found.
00:58:59It couldn't just get up and walk. It must be here somewhere.
00:59:04Hey, Chiyoko. What exactly is it the key to?
00:59:07Yeah, tell us.
00:59:08We have to know.
00:59:09Yeah, what was it for?
00:59:10Tell us, miss.
00:59:11Very well.
00:59:14Somebody I once knew, somebody very dear to me, gave it to me to keep for them.
00:59:20Oh, miss, was it your boyfriend?
00:59:23Her steady.
00:59:24What's he look like?
00:59:25What was he like?
00:59:26Was he nice?
00:59:28What did he look like?
00:59:29Yeah, miss, tell us.
00:59:30Oh, who did he look like?
00:59:31Yeah, please, miss, tell us.
00:59:32Like a famous actor.
00:59:34Did he?
00:59:34I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't remember.
00:59:43Not even his face.
00:59:47Oh, I loved him so much.
00:59:58And I can't even remember his face.
01:00:02Oh, I'm sorry.
01:00:14Oh, no.
01:00:15No, not at all.
01:00:17This tea has a wonderful aroma.
01:00:19It's herbal tea.
01:00:20It's herbal tea.
01:00:22Grown in my own garden.
01:00:27Well, I think I'm ready to continue.
01:00:30Of course.
01:00:32Soon after the key disappeared, you went off and got married.
01:00:37Yes, I married Otaki.
01:00:41It was as though I'd lost part of my heart with that key.
01:00:45And I was too old to just carry on dreaming, so...
01:00:52Yesterday, at exactly 11.47 p.m., Kathleen and I, seven American astronauts were launched into space,
01:01:03based here at Cape Navajo.
01:01:06You're all watched with the rocket.
01:01:09Everything goes well.
01:01:11Mission.
01:01:18Damn it.
01:01:22Ah.
01:01:48Ah.
01:01:52Well, at least now she knows.
01:02:07Knows what, Eiko? Would you like to explain?
01:02:11It was a farce, my dear.
01:02:13By a so-called great director who wanted to win a popular actress.
01:02:18And I was stupid enough to agree to take the role of thief.
01:02:23And yet, where you were concerned, my conscience has plagued me with guilt.
01:02:29And the fortune teller, well, it was a particularly dirty trick.
01:02:34Whoa.
01:02:35It was wrong. I know it was wrong.
01:02:38But back then, I would have done anything to get rid of you.
01:02:42Did you know where he was, Eiko?
01:02:43How could I have known anything?
01:02:46But someone, I'm sure someone, found out about my little deception.
01:02:51But...
01:02:52But why?
01:02:58What had I ever done to you to deserve it?
01:03:01I was jealous, okay?
01:03:03Jealous of your youth?
01:03:05And jealous of how your love for one man kept you young?
01:03:08Whereas I...
01:03:10I got stuck playing the older woman.
01:03:13The one that you'd always come up against.
01:03:17But I'm too old and I'm too tired.
01:03:19I can't hate you anymore.
01:03:21Hey, come on. This is all buried in the past, right?
01:03:29Uh, excuse me?
01:03:31Look, can't you see we're in a meeting? Come back later.
01:03:34Yes, but...
01:03:36There's somebody here.
01:03:38They want to see...
01:03:39Miss Chiyoko.
01:03:53You are Miss Chiyoko Fujiwara, aren't you?
01:03:56What do you want this time?
01:04:04I'm so sorry.
01:04:07You know who I am, don't you?
01:04:10Get lost, creep!
01:04:12I don't blame you for hating me.
01:04:19I was evil.
01:04:20As evil as those I served and helped sustain in their abuse of power.
01:04:25And now I am on a journey of atonement.
01:04:29For the sins that I committed before the war,
01:04:32a dissident artist that we held once had left us for you.
01:04:37He said he was in your debt and he wanted to thank you.
01:04:42Please forgive me.
01:04:46I am most truly sorry.
01:05:06Chiyoko, wait!
01:05:09Wait.
01:05:10Hey!
01:05:12It bothers me that I wasn't able to thank you for your kindness.
01:05:33I want to see you more than anything.
01:05:38But the war grows more intense by the day.
01:05:43When at last this war is over,
01:05:46and real peace is finally here,
01:05:49I'll go home to Hokkaido
01:05:50and finish that painting.
01:05:52And someday I'd like to show you that starry sky and the pure, pure whiteness of the snow.
01:06:04Just as I promised you I did.
01:06:06And you'll agree.
01:06:08It's like a strange and distant planet.
01:06:11Miss, it's the key to the most important thing there is.
01:06:19The most important thing?
01:06:25Is it a deal?
01:06:27Last call for the snow and sky express, now boarding on platform 12.
01:06:42Last call for the snow and sky express, now boarding on platform 12.
01:06:54So tell us everything you've fallen in love with someone, haven't you?
01:07:04After the full moon, everything starts to wane.
01:07:13But with this penultimate moon, there is still tomorrow.
01:07:18And so there is still hope.
01:07:24Oh, not bandits again.
01:07:30Attention all passengers.
01:07:32Apologize for the delay which has been caused by a rock slide just in front of us.
01:07:37Please remain seated.
01:07:40Open the door!
01:07:45The buses are on their way.
01:07:48The staff will conduct all passengers to the main road.
01:07:51Everybody catch the game, Tom!
01:08:05You poor fool!
01:08:07You cannot escape your fate.
01:08:10You will burn forever in the flames of eternal love.
01:08:15He's in Kyoto!
01:08:19I must get to my lord!
01:08:22Where?
01:08:24Keep it until we meet again.
01:08:36Have pity!
01:08:37He's alive!
01:08:41He's alive!
01:08:41I know he's alive!
01:08:44You'll never understand.
01:08:46I love him more every day.
01:08:47You don't look like you're out for a walk.
01:09:01You don't look like you're out for a walk.
01:09:05Climb aboard!
01:09:06At last, the role you were born to play.
01:09:09Just leave it to me.
01:09:11Here we go, kids.
01:09:12It's Hokkaido or bust.
01:09:14You're safe!
01:09:24It's dangerous!
01:09:25You can't go!
01:09:28It's dangerous! You can't go!
01:09:41I have to! He's waiting for you!
01:09:58I'm coming!
01:10:14In those pure wet surroundings, you feel as though you're standing on a strange and distant planet.
01:10:28Turn back, Dr. Chiyoko! Turn back!
01:10:51Doctor, please!
01:10:55I have to give him this key.

01:15:46well I mean well I look quite a bit different now
01:15:50well it's been thirty years I've lived quietly and alone since then
01:15:57but why did you do that I've never understood it
01:16:01after you vanished in Hikido you came back but after the studio accident nobody there ever saw you again
01:16:10after all you've been through why did you choose to go into hiding
01:16:17I never thought I would ever see him again
01:16:24even though I had resolved in my heart to follow him absolutely anywhere
01:16:32that doesn't explain why
01:16:47after the accident I realized something then it was too late I was no longer the little girl he would remember anymore
01:16:53and then it was too late I was no longer the little girl he would remember anymore
01:17:00I hate you more than I can bear
01:17:04yes more than I can bear
01:17:08the truth is I didn't want him to see me as an old woman
01:17:14ah

01:17:36This is a big one
01:17:44Chiyoko

01:18:03Chiyoko?
01:18:04Chiyoko!
01:18:06Chiyoko
01:18:08So, in the end,
01:18:35she never did get to meet the guy who gave her the key, that's a shame.
01:18:42That old policeman.
01:18:47The artist, he...
01:18:51He refused to talk right to me and wouldn't say a word to any of us.
01:18:56He didn't leave me any choice and so I tortured him.
01:19:00And after that I killed him.
01:19:04Wow, that's really heavy.
01:19:08Kyoko spent her life just chasing a shadow.
01:19:13I don't know.
01:19:14I don't know.
01:19:15I don't know.
01:19:17I don't know.
01:19:19I don't know.
01:19:20I don't know.
01:19:21I don't know.
01:19:22I don't know.
01:19:23I don't know.
01:19:24I don't know.
01:19:25I don't know.
01:19:26I don't know.
01:19:27I don't know.
01:19:28I don't know.
01:19:29I don't know.
01:19:30I don't know.
01:19:31I don't know.
01:19:32I don't know.
01:19:33I don't know.
01:19:34I don't know.
01:19:35I don't know.
01:19:36I don't know.
01:19:37I don't know.
01:19:38I think we both know it's goodbye.
01:19:40Goodbye?
01:19:41Hello. I'm sorry, we asked too much of you. It's all my fault.
01:19:50No, not at all. I enjoyed it all very much. Really, I did. But now, I think we both know it's goodbye.
01:19:59Goodbye? But the doctor just said you're gonna be fine.
01:20:03It's alright. You're a lousy liar.
01:20:09Please don't be sad for me.
01:20:12After all, once again, I'll be searching for my one and only true love.
01:20:20You see? Thanks to you, I have the key again. It's opened the door to my memories of him.
01:20:32Listen to me. It's almost as if while I've been talking to you, the girl I once was came back to life again for a while.
01:20:41Go after him. And I'm sure that this time, you will find him.
01:20:49Perhaps so. But then, maybe it doesn't matter anyway.
01:20:54After all. After all.
01:21:01After all.
01:21:01After all.
01:22:05After all, it's the chase that I really love.
