The talk show event of movie "Rikyu ni tazune yo" was held at Shinjuku Wald 9 on 13 Dec which was attended by Nakatani Miki who plays Souen, the wife of the lead Rikyu played by Ichikawa Ebizo, and the director Tanaka Mitsutoshi. During the event, Nakatani commented that although the movie may seem to be focused more on describing the beauty of traditions, it is actually also a love story. The movie which is based on Naoki Award winner Yamamoto Kenichi's novel, describes how Sen no Rikyuu pours his heart and soul into the search for beauty and his long lost first love during his younger days.
It was also announced on the same day that ticket sales for the movie on 11 December which is Ladies' Day (women get discounted prices for tickets) actually exceeded the amount received on the first-day screening on 7 December by 101%. Usually, weekday ticket sales would be only 82.4% of weekend sales.
