Mousy office girl Junko (Norie Yasui) has long been dominated by her sexually active mom (Makiko Watanabe). Although withdrawn and shy, Junko finds very unlikely liberation from a porn promoter, who asks her the key question that opens her up to a new world: Wouldn't it be fun if you could become someone else This someone else, suggested by the director of her first porn shoot, is a blue-haired, sailor suit wearing otaku character named Lulu Junko embodies the role quickly, reveling in the double life she leads and her secret satisfaction that she is not the worthless person her mother thinks she is; strangers watch her, desire her, and send her fan letters. But Lulu is beginning to find herself transforming deeper into her alter ego, Lulu Can she balance the identities before it's too late? Pure Entertainment --Sketches of cinema Four stars... Impressive --E Film Critic An emotionally and psychologically penetrating film --V Cinema Review: surprisingly entertaining - I picked this movie from a trailer on another DVD from this company. It looked funny but on a serious subject. It is a story about a girl that is bored with her life and job. She is recruited into the porn business and becomes friends with another girl in the business but with an opposite personality. There are many twists and sub plots. Please understand that this is not a porn movie. There are a few partial nudity scenes but not much.The main actress Norie Yasui is excellent and reminds me of Japanese actress Aoi Yu. Her friend played by Mayu Sakuma ( i think) and also is excellent. I don't want to say much more but it is a funny at times. It is an account of a girl that gets into porn movies and the results of her decisions. DVD quality is excellent and audio is good. It is true 16/9 enhanced. Extras are just trailers Please note this movie's real Japanese name is "Love & Loathing & Lulu & Ayano"
