<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear KineJapanners,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I recently watched Koreeda Hirokazu's "Without
Memory" (Kioku ga ushinawareta toki, 1996) on VHS with an english dubbed
voice-over. As I unfortunatey don't have access to the original soundtrack and
am unable to track down the origin of this version, I'm not sure
whether this V.O. is the translation of a japanese narration or if it was just
"made up" during the localization process. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can anyone who knows the original confirm my
suspicions? Or perhaps point me to some of the more drastic differences between
the original and the version I saw?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best regards,</FONT></DIV>
