In variety shows [which I do a lot of] I tend to be the one who gives the punch lines and gets the laughs. In movies, I concentrate on the emotions of the scene and nothing else. During a scene, the director would give me something to nibble on that always helped make the filming more relaxing. It was very helpful for me. The most memorable scene for me was the one when Kenji visits my Fancy Shop. I heard that the scene was written for the movie. Our performances went really well, it was as if a muse had come down and touched me on my shoulder.
