Takashi Yamazaki on script changes and those marks on Noriko's neck...

Various outlets are claiming "scoops" on info available in a public broadcast, so I thought I'd expand that information. I've linked time stamps, but if you want to see/hear it from Yamazaki's mouth or check/improve any of my summaries, please note the archive is supposedly only until mid/late May.

Yamazaki discusses changes from the original conception to the final film, e.g. versions where Noriko was considered alive the whole time, a version where Mizushima (young boat guy who didn't go to war) is killed early on, with Shikishima learning of this when he woke up after the big ocean battle. They changed it to an injury instead of death.

Yamazaki says Shikishima was originally intended to be more of a belligerent, warlike sort. In the dino Goji scene, the original setup was that the soldiers determined they'd better be quiet and hope to avoid a confrontation, and it's Shikishima who says, "Hey, I've got my plane. If I shoot this thing, it'll definitely die!" Shikishima would then open fire on Godzilla, appearing at first to have killed him, but then Godzilla would recover (I speculate this is why Yamazaki says this Godzilla had regeneration even before the nuclear test) and kill most of the soldiers, for which Shikishima is blamed.

Yamazaki was told by many script readers that it's better if Noriko dies, but he decided to revive her, feeling bad for how hard she'd tried to survive and then just getting killed. When shooting the scene, he was thinking, "Hmm, it's pretty impressive to survive a blast like that…" and decided on the spot to add some marks for one last cut, puzzling the rest of the staff.

It's at this point Yamazaki is asked point blank if those are Godzilla cells, which he enthusiastically confirms. The interviewer remarks that that must be why at the screening even the actors seemed surprised.

Recent watch. For some reason, I was hesitant to finally see this film, the first live action effort from my admired director, that weird guy Hideaki Anno. Was I nervous about its content? Afraid my beloved director would let me down? Not sure its low-budget production could deliver?

Whatever I was worried about, I hadn't any need. This film is incredible. Raw yet refined. Beautiful and ugly. Outrageous yet nuanced. Bleak and hopeful.

Can't recommend it lightly because of some fairly disturbing elements for some viewers, but it's such a wonderful encapsulation of a moment in time for particular kinds of people. Anno's sense of Tokyo, for me, simultaneously captures what it feels like for me while also pulling back layers I don't know about. His idiosyncratic camerawork makes the city feel like the secret main character.
