by Fiona

Happy December and Aiba month, minna-san! Ogenki desu ka.

Yatta, more news on Sho-kun’s new movie, Yatterman. This is a live-action counterpart of the anime with the same title. More information can be found at Wikipedia.

LOL Sho-kun has really transformed into Gan-chan with the blond hair and very expensive costume. It appears that Yatterman was quite popular in the late 1970’s. Sho-kun noted that the director and staff are from that same generation. Thus, they are very familiar with the anime and wish to stay true to it as much as possible.

I did further digging and found some information on the story, appears to have been inspired by real events.

SYNOPSIS:
When Colin Briggs is placed in an experimental program to finish off his prison sentence, all he wants is peace and quiet. But after his wise, elderly roommate Fergus introduces him to gardening, Colin uncovers a talent and passion for plants. Teaming up with his fellow inmates, Colin gets the attention of celebrated gardener Georgina Woodhouse. Soon, the unexpected gardeners are preparing to compete for England’s highset flower show award, the Hampton Court Flower Show. And when Colin meets Georgina’s beautiful daughter Primrose, he discovers another reason to fight for his freedom: true love.
