[出走地平線：和田惠美]
Flattening The Curve: Emi Wada
服裝造型設計師和田惠美在我們合作《第一爐香》之前，已參與製作近三十部電影作品。
她因工作一絲不苟而聞名。
很多經過她設計的戲服，不論用名貴布匹、復古或漂染布來造，都能在螢幕上產生很大的共鳴。
《英雄》是我們第一部合作的作品，之後便是小田切讓的《從不一漾》。和田惠美雖已介八十三歲高齡，依然煙不離手，對自己的布料在我燈光之下產生的效果，非常小心翼翼。
但有一天，我們的工作有點停滯不前。
我們還需要很長時間才能完成這一幕戲。
現場下着大雨，不斷干擾着拍攝，令進度非常落後。
我有點不耐煩，甚至發了脾氣。
惠美遞給我一瓶啤酒，拍一拍我肩膊說：「放鬆點，Chris!」
「怎可以呢….還有那麼多未拍」我說。
「忍耐點，我們一定拍完這一幕，或許不是今天而已」她安慰着我。
「已經延誤了很多，肯定會超資，你不覺得困擾嗎？」我問。
「延誤了誰的時間？」她說「神明不會賣帳的…放鬆點，專注點就是了」她又吸一口煙。
「黑澤明教曉我忍耐，還記得合作的時候，曾經為等一個好天色而等上幾日，也試過…等足足一個月。現在等一兩句鐘，又算得上甚麼？」
Costume Designer Emi has made around 30 films by the time we worked on “Love After Love”.
She is famously meticulous.
Many of the costumes in her films she has formed from valuable and ancient cloth or dyed to colours that resonate on screen.
“Hero” was our first film together, followed by Joe Odagiri’s “They Say Nothing Stays the same” and now here she is at 83 years of age, chain smoking and attentive to every detail to how her fabrics respond to my light.
One day we are stuck.
We have a long scene to complete today.
The rain comes and goes disrupting our shoot. We are falling behind.
I am getting impatient. Angry even.
Emi brings me beer. She lays a hand on my shoulder “Relax, Chris!”
“How can I, we have so much to do” I respond.
“Be patient. We will get the scene. But maybe not today” she re-assures me.
“We are falling behind schedule. And over budget. Doesn’t that bother you?” I ask.
“Behind whose schedule?” she continues: “The Gods won’t sell out… relax and keep focused.” she takes a drag on her cigarette.
“Kurosawa taught me patience. We would wait days for the right sky. Once we...waited one whole month. What’s an hour or two on this film?”
