Hiroko Sato – Kanbai Gekijo Presents Hiroko Sato / Togenko (2005)
TV Asahi
The Skinny: An excellent DVD circa October 2005. Not exactly a whirlwind tour of Okinawa – instead think of this one as a compendium of Hiroko looking breathtaking in various beautiful settings. In short I loved this DVD. (more…)
Did you ever notice that most everything we like or need usually is a set; and is discussed, acquired, or possessed in pairs? You don’t go to the shoe store and buy two shoes do you? No, you buy a pair of shoes; in the same way you might buy a few pairs of socks. Arms, legs, eyes, balls, and boobs all come in pairs.
Some of our favorite expressions point toward our predilection for matched sets. Two pair in five- card stud poker is a great hand, Batman and Robin are heroic, salt and pepper are condiments we must have on the table, even meatballs and spaghetti always seem to go together.
Hina Kawai – Peach Pie (2007)
Luck Films
The Skinny – The producers (Luck Films) are upping the ante trying to push Hina Kawai up into the next higher tier of bikini goddesses. How are they doing it – with lots of small bikini’s, some lovely Okinawa location shoots, and oodles of time and care for improvements in Hina’s make-up and hair. Hina has never looked better.
Late last month I found myself in Newport, RI, to be a spectator for the sailing competition. As we drove past one mansion after another on the elegant Bellevue Avenue or as we walked Newport’s treasured Cliffwalk (the next two images below), above the rocky coast, history and the present moments seemed to merge.
Mikie Hara – Micky Smile (2006)
VAP – Nittlegenic (Nihon Broadcasting)
The Skinny: One of Japan’s loveliest gravure models travels to Rota in the Northern Marianas. And we get to view Mikie Hara and her many smiles in this splendid DVD called Micky Smile.
Yuuka Sawachi – Full Body (2006)
Japan Media Supply/ Cube
The Skinny: I can’t get enough of this woman. OK – that’s a bit of an overstatement as this DVD was released last year and I didn’t buy it until last month. Nevertheless, I am quite pleased to present a review of the sexy Yuuka Sawachi. Sit back and enjoy.
Full Body is an exquisite yet maddening DVD. (more…)
Fifty six years ago, in 1951, the classic musical film An American In Paris was released and it is still discussed even today. This film, directed by Vincent Minelli, won the Oscar for Best Picture. It is the story of an American G.I. who stayed in Paris after WWII to pursue his dreams of becoming a successful artist and meeting Ms. Right.
Less than a month ago, I was an American in Paris, and my agenda was a tad different than Gene Kelly’s Jerry Mulligan. Now the only ones talking about it now are Mastercard and American Express, and hopefully, the Air France stewardess who took my card and said she would call. (more…)
