Over Your Dead Body Page #2

Synopsis: A star, Miyuki Goto (Ko Shibasaki) plays Oiwa, the protagonist in a new play based on the ghost story Yotsuya Kaidan. She pulls some strings to get her lover, Kosuke Hasegawa (Ebizo Ichikawa) cast in the play, even though he's a relatively unknown actor. Other performers Rio Asahina (Miho Nakanishi) and Jun Suzuki (Hideaki Ito) lust after Miyuki. Off stage the cast's possessive love and obsessions exist as reality. Trapped between the play and reality, the cast's feelings for each other are amplified. When it becomes clear that love is not meant to be both on and off stage, love turns into a grudge and crosses the blurred line between reality and fantasy.

Really?

If father was still here...

I'm sure he would have been glad

I've thought about your position.

And you can wear this

when you report.

It has our family crest,

a ying yang insignia.

Where there's light

there's shadow.

Where there's shadow

there's light.

All elements in the universe

throughout eternity

will always have

a light and a shady side.

What is it?

How clever.

He's smiling at his daddy, Iemon.

Good little boy.

That's all.

We're finished for the day.

Tomorrow will be a day off.

We'll resume rehearsals

in two days at 2:00 PM.

Thank you

Sorry

I'm still in Izu.

I see.

That's how it goes.

Goodbye

Goodbye

It's me or her.

I love you

If it's true

then marry me.

After the marriage

we'd go to America

You wouldn't have to work as an actor.

...you could help out

Dad with his businesses.

He's got lots of restaurants

and properties.

Just as many as in Japan.

We could live happier

Acting is all I've known...

since childhood.

I won't...

I won't let Miyuki have you back.

Someone

Someone is watching us

You scared me

I'm back

You're back

Go eat.

I've already eaten

I'm sleepy

You've returned

Maki came all this way

to bring me a gift.

Please thank her.

Let me express my thanks

for my husband's good fortune.

We are extremely grateful

to master Ito

I hope he will continue to

support Iemon's career.

Thank you so much.

I'll pass it on.

It appears Iemon is very worried

about your health

So master Ito got some medicine

today in Nanban

and wanted it brought to you

as soon as possible.

Take one packet a day

I don't deserve

such expensive medicine...

Don't worry.

It's for your husband as well.

We want him to be able

to work his best.

To do so...

You must be in good health.

Thank you for your kindness

Iwa, we have no reason

to reject their generosity.

Take it

I do not know how to thank you.

Oh what a cute baby

Tamiya, sir, perhaps you could

show me my chores

Master Ito awaits you.

You may please go back to work.

I'm fine

I drank the medicine.

I'm feeling

the medicine seems

to have taken effect.

You could...

...show a little feeling.

That drug you gave her...

It's not fatal.

Rest assured.

Except...

Men usually despise

despise things that are ugly.

Are you in pain?

There, there.

Does it still hurt?

Welcome home.

I was just nursing Ichinosuke

when he suddenly got sick

and threw up.

I wonder if it's the medicine.

Are you are trying to say

the drug is poison?

I dare say not.

I've taken this medicine

for two days now

And I know I must take it but...

But what?

The medicine may

just be working slowly

It's an expensive drug.

You have to take all of it.

Or it would be disrespectful

to master Ito

I did not think you cared

so much for my health.

You troubled yourself

to get this medication.

How fortunate I am.

Tell master Ito

how grateful I am able

for these drugs.

How grateful I am able

for these drugs.

Kayo.

Yes?

Kosuke should be staying over tonight

So don't bother picking me up tomorrow.

Fine.

But if you change plans,

just let me know.

I'll call you then.

Ok.

If there's anything I can do for you

I'm happy to do it.

Thank you

Hey you...

I need to ask you

to hurry back home.

I want to show you something

Sorry

It's very bad.

About Iemon...

What would have made him happy?

Nothing would.

You're afraid of something ?

No

I'm afraid.

I can hear...

What ?

See you tomorrow.

Miyuki

What's she up to.

Miyuki

You're back.

I'm not worthy of you.

What?

I'm not worthy of you.

I'm so sorry.

What are you saying?

Let's sleep?

We're going to the hospital

To the hospital !

I'll just sleep it off.

What are you saying ?

We're going to the hospital.

I can't find our baby.

I know he's in there.

I looked all over

but couldn't find him.

What ?

You know how important

this play is for both of us.

We need our sleep.

Or...do you want to make love?

That's enough.

It's all my fault.

- I'm not worthy of you.

- Don't come any closer.

All my fault.

What are you talking about?

- I'm not worthy of you.

- Stay away.

All my fault.

I'm so sorry.

Don't get close to me.

- All my fault

- Stay away.

Really sorr....

- Good morning

You're really early today.

Can I have your attention, everyone.

We still cannot find Miyuki

So we're going to use an understudy.

Please let's all get ready.

Is that ok with you?

Sure.

"Miyuki Goto - Out"

Please, try to be more aggressive.

Getting started

When I'm with you,

time passes in the blink of an eye.

You want to leave already?

If I'm not home before Father

he'll never let me

leave the house.

If you had a comb like this...

I'd always be with you, Iwa.

It hurts

It hurts

It hurts

Good evening

It's Takuetsu, the masseur.

Miss Iwa.

How are you tonight?

It's kind of you to visit but

I'd prefer to be alone this evening

Iemon will be home soon

and he'll want his supper.

Mr. Iemon

I wonder if he'll

come home tonight.

Takuetsu...?

Ms. Iwa!

I've always desired you

Leave me alone.

Beautiful Ms. Iwa.

Let me go.

Forget your husband tonight.

You see...

Mr. Iemon knows about this.

He said I could have you.

I guess he wanted a better life.

The samurai can be

quite heartless.

in getting promoted

He sacrificed you and the baby

for the wealthy estate

of the pretty young lady

he married.

Ms Iwa.

Ms Iwa

You filthy animals.

I caught you fornicating with my wife.

Sir, this isn't what

you promised!

Iemon

Masseur...I saw you

Tricking a married woman

into a shameless act.

And you're the adulteress

who let herself be tricked.

You are all immoral.

I had to punish you both.

Iemon

You're mine and mine only.

What's wrong?

Ume

Will you answer.

Iwa

I hate you

Iemon

You monster.

Ume

There's nothing to worry about.

I've figured out a plan

to make things go smoothly.

You're so undignified.

You've already fallen into hell, Iemon.

I'll have to bite off your head to show you

You've now gone to hell.

For the pain

you inflicted on me!

It's horrible

There was hardly a breeze.

It flew in from over there.

Ok, where's the head?

Well,sir... we couldn't find it.

You mean...?

"Kosuke Hasegawa - Out"

He's late again.

Ok, that's fine.

You others get downstairs.

Good

Miyuki.

Kosuke isn't here.

Do you know why?

No, maybe he's got a bad headache

Kayo you know?

No, I do not.

Kayo, can you get the kimono?

Good

This play

Make sure it goes ahead

no matter what.

Director Otaki

Has he come yet?

No, he hasn't

The police came

- The police?

- Yes

Miyuki

If the rehearsal ends early tonight

How about a drink?

It's been a long time.

If we finish early

You should go home

What a shame.
