Last Scene: Yuri Komuro
6/7-9/99 Alice Japan
Director: Katsuyuki Hirano
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Having decided to retire from her work as an AV actress, Yuri Komuro decided
to produce her last film herself. She chose Katsuyuki Hirano to direct, giving
high ratings to his films such as "The molester Girl - Yuri Komuro".
This pleased him greatly as he felt this was a vindication of his work as a
director. But with Katsuyuki Hirano directing, this would hardly be a normal
film.
In this film, Company Matsuo and I played the parts of AV actors Kazuho Hiramoto
and Taka Kato, two of Yuri's previous boyfriends. Someone borrowed Taka's suit,
which I wore along with a longhaired wig. It was ridiculous.
The location chosen was the same as was used for debut video. In the first part
of the film, Yuri acted like a real lady, but Hirano was determined to break
her of this with the use of violence, finally torturing her with fireworks!
This led into the next scene, which was done in the style of a documentary:
The documentary of a stripper. Yuri had been given many offers to act as a stripper
in the past, but had always refused. But, this being her last video, it was
the one thing left that she wanted to do. This would be her first, and last
time as a stripper. One thing that she insisted on was that she be able to strip
in front of her fans; she wanted to give them a farewell message.
The whole thing was really ridiculous: there was violence, cartoonish drama, and a documentary. It was Hirano's comprehensive compilation, and it resembled a soap opera by director Kon Ichikawa.

On this film the cast and crew kept a really tight schedule. As producer, Yuri
was quite strict about our keeping to the schedule, as she had to have the film
finished by June 9th. Her boyfriend's birthday was June 10th.
