Cast Me If You Can

2010, 97 min. Theatrical release in Japan, Fall of 2010. Written & Directed by Atsushi Ogata. With Toru Masuoka, Hiromi Nagasaku, Masahiko Tsugawa, Keiko Matsuzaka. In Japanese with English subtitles.

East Coast Premiere.
Director Atsushi Ogata’s first feature film tells the story of a supporting actor, always mistaken for others, who longs to be a leading man and gets his break when cast in a Woody Allen remake. But a series of misadventures throw his dream into chaotic disarray. When a fellow female character actor enters the picture, he wonders if he even has what it takes to be the leading man in his own life. A charming romantic comedy from Japan with excellent performances supporting a sweet, subtle story that will leave you smiling.
