Movie: 少女
I went to see Two Towers today, in English... yeah, but the French Subtitles -did- help my French out a bit! Really!
Anyway... The theatre also had a poster for this film. It is called Syojyo, the French title seems to be Adolescent, and in Japanese Shojyo means 'young girl'.
I have no idea what the movie is about... but look, she's getting a back tattoo. It must involve Yakuza... Gotta be cool. On another note, a movie called "Stupeur et tremblements" about a French lady who goes to Japan was also popular here a while ago. I wanna see it.

hey, Harvey.it's syo"u"jo! it's not syojo. syojo means virgin. syo"u"jo means young girl. i think you should study roma-ji again.
Dang.
Hopefully no one else will notice that mistake. That's embarrassing.
処女と少女か。 Whoops.
hey harvey,
I just thought i would send a little hello from a former dorm floor member of IFS 1997!!! I'm glad to see that you have reached your ultimate destination of Japan since i know you have always wanted to go. Hope all is well and again greetings from Chicago, IL!

Adam!? How the heck did you find this site??
What are you doing in Chicago??
Well... the poster says "une adolescente" ...
So technically it's still saying it's about a girl.
Maybe the french release made her 'an adolescent' because some of is perceived to be too risque for just a 'shoujo'?
Oh well.
