Ueto Aya to star in a new movie with Kora Kengo

On January 24, it was revealed that actress Ueto Aya (27), who married EXILE leader HIRO (43) last September, will star in the film “Bushi no Kondate.” The film will open in theaters this winter. This is her first film since her marriage to HIRO and she will play the supportive wife named “Oharu” of on-screen husband Kora Kengo. Ueto spoke with anticipation, “Although this film is a period film, I hear that the film will be both painful longing and humorous as it depicts how relations between man and wife have not changed much now compared to then.”

The film is based on historical happenings in the Kaga Domain during the Edo period. Oharu (Ueto), who has great sense with his tongue with superb cooking skills, is discovered her skills by Funaki Tennai (Nishida Toshiyuki) and marries into the Funaki family, which has served as chefs for the domain from generation to generation. With the help from Man (Yo Kimiko), her mother-in-law, she tries hard to teach her husband “Yasunobu” (Kora) who is supposed to be the successor, but lacks cooking skill. Through giving the cooking lessons for the husband, the couple begin to establish an emotional bond with each other, and the two mature together as husband and wife.

Ueto, who will start filming in Kyoto, talked about the various dishes that appear in the film with, “As it is called ‘Bushi no Kondate’(Samurai’s Menu), please look forward to the various menus of the time period that appear in the film.” She appealed for the film with, “I hope that the film would be enjoyable for many people, especially for women.”

Thanks! I'm beginning to like her again with this dorama and this hairstyle. She used to be right up there with Gakky after I saw Azumi 1 and 2 and Install. I have all 3 DVDs.

2nd best dorama this season after Toda Erika's imho.

She went up the rankings (as did Gakky)...

Which female celebrity would you choose as your girlfriend?
by Shiso on March 9, 2013 at 8:07 pm

Previously, ORICON STYLE revealed the ranking of male celebrities who the public wanted as a boyfriend, and now it is time for the female celebrity ranking.

500 men who are in their teens, twenties, thirties and forties, were asked which female celebrity they would want as a girlfriend.

For the past two years, actress Ayase Haruka topped this ranking, but this year, actress Aragaki Yui who was No.2 last year, took the No.1 position.

Check out the rest of the ranking below! (The number in the parenthesis is from the same ranking last year.)

=====

1. Aragaki Yui (2)

2. Ayase Haruka (1)

3. Ueto Aya (5)

4. Horikita Maki (6)

5. Miyazaki Aoi (5)

6. Gouriki Ayame (-)

7. Nagasawa Masami ( 8 )

8. Honda Tsubasa (-)

9. Kitagawa Keiko (3)

10. Kashiwagi Yuki (9)

I have all those 3 movies on DVD also, may have to get another copy of Install as I've watched it so many times it's probably going to disintegrate.

Aya's dramas tend to be a hit or miss, my faves up until this one have been Attention Please, Hotelier and Celeb to Binbo Taro.... one worth checking out was her first one from 2000, Namida wo Fuite, she wasn't the star in it but still had a big role, may have been the best one she was in.

Said Attention Please which is a fine drama but actually meant to put this one ahead of this, really one fine show and so much more intense than you would think.

And this was really Aya's most underrated drama.

Just because this is her ultimate pic.

And a reminder, don't let her sucker you into a game of Poker.
