Yes she has a real talent. You should see some of her movies, especially Twilight Samurai if you haven't already done so.

Rie excells in this kind of portrayal. |
Yes she has a particular talent for playing characters in historical films/period dramas (jidai geki).
You might also like Hana Yori mo Naho, another film, which is not as serious as Twilight Samurai but is also a period film.

You still need to try to get a hold of Tokyo Elevator Girl... Rie-chan's breakout role.
Speaking of TEG, Triky, did that copy that you bought a while back pan out to be any better than the VCR-rip that we all seem to have?

Don't know how true is that... |
But that book came out long after she became popular as she was already doing commericials and Television, making millions of Yen, as a young teenager....why wait until she was an adult to propogate that lie? You could be right but I am doubtful.

I thought the main selling point was the nudity, particularly the frontal stuff. |
Well the Japanese do have a fascination with "hafu" ~ ppl of mixed descent...but she was already wildly popular making tons and tons of money prior to the release of that photobook....so she was already a media darling. As you said, the risque photos of someone so popular and visible in Japanese entertainement were the draw, I think. I still think that was the best selling photobook of all time in Japan.

Yup.
I remember the wave of interest was so huge that it was even reported on Entertainment Tonight back in '91/'92... I think I even recorded that show.

Wow.
Yeah well back then she was at the zenith of her popularity and there were less media outlets, Internet, etc....so TV and publishing were king....
The ratings for doramas was generally much higher then, compared to now.
