Hikari Discusses Filming Brendan Fraser in Lovely 'Rental Family' Film

"She's a creator who has a strong intuition [for] the human condition – and [can do] that with sincerity, without ever being mawkish or cliche..." This lovely, uplifting new film is opening in theaters this week and I heartily recommend it. Searchlight Pictures has debuted another charming behind-the-scenes featurette for Rental Family, from the filmmaker known as "Hikari" who also directed episodes of the series "Beef" & the film 37 Seconds. Discover the joy of unexpected connections. A lonely American actor living in Tokyo starts working for a Japanese "rental family" company to play stand-in roles in other people's lives. Along his journey, he finds surprising connections and unexpected joys within his built-in family in Japan. This humble film stars Oscar winner Brendan Fraser, with Takehiro Hira, Mari Yamamoto, Shannon Gorman, & Akira Emoto. This making of featurette is all about Hikari working with Brendan Fraser, why she chose him for this role, and a bit of what she's like working on set filming with everyone. I watched this film recently and it's quite cozy and makes you feel all warm & fuzzy by the end. It's entirely worth watching. // Continue Reading ›
