Letters from Iwo Jima

Letters from Iwo Jima was probably my favourite movie from 2006. It was directed by Clint Eastwood. I have to say, for an American, he really captured the true Japanese spirit and sense of humanity. He truely is a genius. I was surprised to learn that the role of Saigo (It actually means last, as he was the last surviving) was played by Kazunari Ninomiya, a member of the idol group Arashi. Arashi means storm by the way. The group is members with the same company as Smap. That would be Johnny's entertainment. Heck, sometimes boy bands to produce quality. Didn't the same thing happen with the back street boys?
