Shochiku coup

[Mile Films]

Though I can't say for Japan, there seems to be some change in the US.
Interestingly enough, after several years of no communication, Shochiku in Los
Angeles contacted us to say hello and introduce themselves (though I must say
since we picked up Hana-Bi in October, many people have called). The contact
was very nice and I hope this means that they will be more willing to see
their films distributed in the US than in the past.
