A hilarious parody of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. This is why I love Kansai!
The text in the Japanese poster says…
「一瞬も恋に落ちないふたり。おたがい、その原因は外見。」
My unprofessional translation…
“The two won’t fall in love for even a moment. The reason for both of them, is outward appearance.”
The original saying on the Japanese poster for “Mr and Mrs Smith” says, 「一瞬で恋に落ちたふたり。おたがい、その正体は秘密。」
My translation…
“The two fell in love in an instant. The actual reality is a secret.”
The Japanese poster features Shizuyo Yamasaki and Ryouta Yamazato, together known as Nankai Paradise, a comedy combo who do “konto” コント, which is like Manzai, with a story and more physical movement.
As far as I know, their act does not NOT include any spoofs of the actual movie however, only this poster.
