Seifuku bisyojo sensei atashi wo daite

Very competent 'pink', written and directed by, Hidekazu Takahara and starring the delectable, Sora Aoi, who has apparently appeared not only in 'pink' films but in adult and mainstream. She is quite delightful with great looks and ability to perform most believably, however, crazy the situation. She can ask a sweaty schoolboy to tie her up or cook for her teacher lover while they await his wife's return from hospital with a new baby; and we watch spellbound. The director talks about the movie reflecting a person's decision as to when to 'grow up' and whilst the film may not be quite as serious as he intended, it is certainly as thoughtful as it is most erotic.

Since I am suffering lately from an obsession with Japanese actress Aoi Sola (well, perhaps "suffer" isn't exactly the right word here. . .), I could not resist checking out this, her crossover film from "AV" (adult video) to "pink". This is KIND OF like crossing from hardcore to softcore porn, but Japanese AV as I understand it is real sex with the penetration "optically fogged" out so it perhaps doesn't quite have the stigma American XXX porn. And Japanese "pink" films are actually much better made films than American softcore (especially modern-day softcore). Sola has actually moved closer and closer to mainstream with recent films such as "Man, Woman, and a Wall". It certainly helps that she's got the most incredible body you're ever likely to see (and if it's not all-natural I want give her plastic surgeon a big hug in gratitude), but she is also a genuinely talented actress (especially, considering her AV origins). She could probably even get away with keeping her clothes on for an entire movie--but where's the fun in that?

If you, uh, suffer from a Japanese schoolgirl uniform fetish, I would definitely recommend this since Sola plays easily the sexiest looking high school girl in the history of secondary education (it probably helps that she was about 20 at the time and had had A LOT of practice being sexy from her earlier AV career). The plot is not much to speak of--Sola's errant, sexually curious high school girl seduces a classmate and her male teacher (I understand the Japanese title literally translates to "School Uniform Beauty: Shag Me, Teacher"). It's not nearly as good as her more widely available films like "Man, Woman, and Wall" and "Raw Summer", but it's good clean fun compared to some of her other, rather disturbing, early work like "The STB Campaign".

If you DON'T currently have a Japanese schoolgirl uniform fetish, you certainly will after seeing Sola in (and out) of hers. I really can't think of any other good reason to see this particular movie, but. . .

I don't really get the hype there is about Sora Aoi, because she is not really particularly talented in acting. I suppose it is because of her history in the Japanese AV industry. I purchased this movie because it was cheap on Amazon and because I enjoy Asian cinema. But "Tsumugi" (aka "Seifuku bisyojo sensei atashi wo daite") wasn't an impressive movie by far.

The story is about Tsumugi (played by Sora Aoi), a student who is in love with her teacher and seduces him. The teacher is a cheating husband awaiting his wife to give birth their child, while he is having an affair with another teacher and becomes seduced by one of his students. While Tsumugi is having an affair with her teacher, she also starts a relationship with one of her classmates.

I can't really claim to find the storyline interesting, and it was accompanied by some really odd dialogue, much of which didn't always make much sense.

As for the acting, well, let's just say that it is as to be expected from a Pink Eiga movie. But most impressive was the lack of acting talent by the lead actress Sora Aoi.

A dull and rather pointless moment in Japanese cinema.
