Robert Hoskin's last short film made entirely in Japan back in late 1999. The real four deaf actresses, as seen in the five minutes promotional film "Introduction of Four Deaf Actresses" ( which was already uploaded here in KZitem ) performed expectantly well from his direction at Asahi Building site near Sumida River in Sumida-Ku, Japan, on October-November, 1999. Budgeted at $32,000 including approximately $50 per bilingual subtitle film shots which has gone up to nearly $4,000 for a 18 mins short film. The film "The Unforgettable Character" was shot in 35mm Panavision 2:35:1 anamorphic ratio - NOT Super 35 which Hoskin frequently put against it, as it's his first time since shot the same aspect ratio at his old 1982 amateur super 8mm 'feature' film "The Silent Revenge" in Australia. This film "The Unforgettable Character", newly uploaded here, is in 'Pan-and-Scan' version only ( without moving the picture either sideway ) of 1:33:1 screen ratio with locked-centre screen as Hoskin has intented to. Since he hasn't got the full 16:9 TV screen version of it when transferred the 35mm scope film to Betacam-SP video by 35mm film scanner, leaves only two different picture versions - one is in Letterbox 2:35:1 version for 4:3 TV screen and the other one is in Pan & Scan version which he has chosen it for this uploading. There coming the new transfer technology for 1080p of original 16:9 for this, so Hoskin will do his best to have the film transfer to original version, but his time only will tell. After this film was flopped at local Box Office, Robert and his deaf actress wife Yasuko Tsuchiya left Japan in late 2005 and re-established his career as a filmmaker there in Australia.
