Say Hello For Me (DVD) (English Subtitled) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3

The latest entry into the pure love genre, Say Hello For Me (a.k.a. Sono Toki wa Kare ni Yoroshiku) easily wins over audiences with the photogenic casting of popular stars Nagasawa Masami, Yamada Takayuki, and Tsukamoto Takashi. All three actors have earned their badges when it comes to romantic tearjerkers, with Nagasawa Masami previously starring in Nada Sou Sou, Tsukamoto Takashi in Song to the Sun, and Yamada Takayuki in Train Man. Also plenty experienced is first-time film director Hirakawa Yuichiro, whose television resume includes Sailor Suit and Machine Gun and Crying out Love, in the Center of the World, which starred Nagasawa and Yamada, respectively. Based on a novel by Ichikawa Takuji, Say Hello For Me is a quintessential pure love film, with a moving storyline and subtle performances from the leads and supporting cast. Director Hirakawa wisely builds the film around its greatest assets - Nagasawa's natural acting and beautiful smile and Yamada's awkward, yet endearing film personae - creating a touching romance that should please fans of the genre.

Quiet, earnest, and a bit nerdy, Toyama Satoshi (Yamada Takayuki) runs a marine plants store where he can indulge in his love for aquatic vegetation. Though he barely makes enough money, Satoshi is determined to hold on to the store as it fulfills a promise he made to his two best friends years ago. One day, a beautiful young model (Nagasawa Masami) shows up at his steps asking for a job. As clueless as ever, it takes some time before Satoshi realizes that she is actually his childhood friend and first crush Karin. Though he doesn't understand what has brought Karin to him so suddenly after thirteen years, Satoshi is glad to have her back in his life. Their happiness is short-lived though as they soon receive sobering news about their friend Yuji (Tsukamoto Takashi).
