The first-day-screening of movie "Bushi no Kondate" was held at Marunouchi Picadilly on 14 Dec which was attended by the cast members Ueto Aya, Koura Kengo, Nishida Toshiyuki, Yo Kimiko and the director Asahara Yuzo. The movie is Ueto's first film since "Azumi 2 Death or Love" 8 years ago and she revealed during the event that it had been a conscious choice on her part not to take on movies during this period. Ueto said that her career was mainly built upon TV dramas and she was worried about whether she could attract people to pay money and watch her movies in the cinema. As such, it took 8 long years before she finally came to terms with the pressure and she commented that after a certain age, she no longer felt that figures were as important as her interest and desire to do things. Koura who plays Ueto's husband in the movie, said that since this is his first period movie and his first attempt at showing off his cutting skills on screen, everything was like brand new to him as he had to learn new stuff every day during the filming.
