昨日たまたま家にあったヴィデオで、鬼平を見る。題名が、「俺の弟」だったと思う。これは私の大好きな話のひとつ。ところが見てびっくり、脚本がかなり本物の話と違うではないか。違いすぎるかもしれない。今井ソウセンという絵描きがこのヴィデオでは、刀の研ぎし。そして、今井ソウセンの妻が弟という人物のお姉さんか妹のはずなのに、なってはいけない恋人同士ではないか。ソウセンは鬼平の中では、時々出てくる人物。ぜったいに、職を変えてはいけないと思うけど。池波正太郎が生きててこれを見たらどう思ったのだろうか？この話の最後がまた、すごくかっこいいところなんだけど、もっと十分に時間をとって、鬼平と鬼平のボスが、目と目が合った緊張感とそれからの息の変わり目を本物の内容のごとくとってほしかった。やっぱり所詮テレビドラマか？
Last night, I happened to have “Onihei” video and saw it. The title is “my brother.” This is one of my favorites. However, it was so surprising. The story is much different from the real book. It may be too much different. Sousen Imai is an artist in the real book, but in the video, he is the person who sharpens kanatas. Morever, his wife should be brother’s sister, but in the video, they are loving each other. Sousen sometimes shows up in the real book. His profession should not be changed like this. If the author Shotaro Ikenami were alive, how would he think about it? The ending of this story is really a cool part. They should have used more time on this part. Onihei and his boss are seeing each other as drinking, and after a short period of time, they understand what they are thinking without saying any words each other. I wanted to see that sharp feeling. How can a TV program be made with much high quality?
