Guys, Koji Yakusho is directing a movie. Has been for years apparently? It's about a stock trader trying to maintain a relationship with his son after a tragedy, but it looks like kind of a nutty comedy at the same time? I can't figure out much from the trailer. But I'm interested just because it's Yakusho's directorial debut and I've kind of got a mancrush on him.

Info from: Twitch (http://twitchfilm.net/site/view/koji-yakusho-steps-behind-the-camera-with-gama-no-abura).

(P.S. Sorry it's not an action film Boner :sad:)

Awesome.

I love his work in Kurosawa's films, but I've never seen him outside of those.
