First-day screening of movie "Kanojo wa uso wo aishisugiteru"

The first-day screening of movie "Kanojo wa uso wo aishisugiteru" was held on 14 Dec at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills which was attended by the cast Sato Takeru, Ohara Sakurako, Miura Shohei, Yoshizawa Ryo, Aibu Saki, Sorimachi Takashi, music producer Kameda Seiji and the director Koizumi Norihiro. During the event, Sato presented flowers to his co-star Ohara and praised her for the hard work she put in for this movie which led Ohara to cry due to the surprise gesture. Having won the audition 18 months ago from a field of more than 5,000 hopefuls, Ohara who is in her first leading role in a movie, expressed her thanks to everyone and feels like she is at the starting line again now that the movie is finally ready to be seen by the public.

Surprisingly, this movie is Sato's first romance movie and he said that it was great to be in the company of his female co-stars this time because he was always surrounded by men in his previous works. Aibu who plays the diva Mari and has a relationship with Sato's character, teased him for knowing how to film intimate scenes and taking the lead during the filming which made him look quite embarrassed. In response, he said that although the role of Mari was supposed to be a sexy woman, Aibu was quite shy in real life so he had to get her to be more relaxed in order for them to look more natural during those intimate scenes.

Miura who plays the vocalist of the band CRUDE PLAY in the movie, said that it was a short but fulfilling experience to be a singer since the band has already disbanded. However, if the movie becomes a hit, there is a likelihood that his band might be revived one day.
