Omori Kazuki

[Alexander Jacoby]

Thanks for that Roland, I will go with Renka.
   
  A question now about Kazuki Omori. He has made several films set abroad. I understand that T.R.Y. is actually a Sino-Korean-Japanese co-production. Am I write in thinking that Emergency Call, set in the Philippines, is also a co-production? And what about the Bollywood-style film Natu odoru ninja densetsu? Did these films actually have Filipino and Indian funding, or were they simply films set in those countries?

  Jasper, Fujita Toshiya's nickname was "Paki". He got the name in 1955 during the shooting of Nishikawa Katsumi's "Haru no yoru no dekigoto". Fujita had just entered Nikkatsu and was assigned third assistant director to Nishikawa, who likened Fujita with the Prince of Pakistan because of his fairly dark complexion, small moustache and dark sunglasses. First assistant director Masuda Toshio thereafter started calling him Paki-san, which became his nickname. 

Alex, regarding Fujita's second Shura yukihime film: the Kojien lists "renka" and "koiuta" as correct readings, but not "renga", so I guess it should be "Urami renka". But with Japanese titles one never knows...
