セピア色の想い出


セピア色の想い出

今、記憶にのみ留まる松島パークホテルの映像を、復元したいという運動を展開し
ている大和晴彦氏。私は二、三年前彼の話を直接耳にしていた。
彼はIT技術者として勤務を続けていたが、昨年独り立ちして、関連する企業経営
の道を歩んでいる。彼の熱心さは並ではなく全国に向け、自らの誕生地「松島」
の華麗な過去を紹介すべく「松島パークホテルの思い出」をホームページで見事再
現してくれた。
全国各地から松島パークホテルにまつわる話題の提供が多く寄せられ、充実したコ
ンテンツとして新聞等、マスコミの話題を今展開している。
そんな折、私個人にも忘れ得ぬ思い出が蘇った。昭和37年頃のこと、当時テレビ
の草創期ゴールデンタイム午後8時から9時の、シリーズ・テレビドラマでタイト
ルが確か「娘の結婚」だと記憶している。役者は当時の名俳優、水島道太郎そして
娘役には今尚活躍している富士真奈美(当時22、23歳)新国劇の江田島隆氏で
あったドラマは「松島パークホテル」を舞台として展開され、小生はエキストラと
はいえ2シーン、3カットの役を頂戴した。当時はドーラン化粧であり、私もメ
イクの人に手伝いを頂き人並みに化粧をしてもらった。
特に今でも想い出深いことは、かの有名な水島氏が何度か演技をつけてくれたこと
...。
江田島氏には仙石線の電車でしばし演劇の話をして頂いた記憶が蘇る。
そして富士氏はリハーサルの合間を惜しんで新聞各紙に目を通しながら長時間熱心
に勉強している姿が私の脳裏に焼きついている。・・・そして彼女には今も輝かしい
女優人生があるのだろう。
さて、テレビ映像が写しだされる折、テレビの前で画面を必ずや写し撮ってやろう
とシャッターチャンスを狙った。そしてあの丸ブラウン管から切り採ったものがこ
の写真である。写真
勿論、声はアフレコで瞬間に通り過ぎた・・・
"私の青春の思い出として、今も心の一頁に刻みこまれている"生涯忘れ得ぬセピ
ア色の想い出である。

The recollections of my youth

Mr. Haruhiko Yamato who is developing movement of wanting to restore now
the image of Matsushima Park Hotel which remains only in memory. I took the
opportunity of hearing his talk 2 or 3 years ago. Mr. Yamato was
independent last year after the service as an IT engineer, he follows the
way of related corporate management. His eagerness carried out brilliant
reappearance of "the recollections of Matsushima Park Hotel" by introducing
the splendid past of his birthplace "Matsushima" through the homepage
towards the whole country.
Many offers of the subject which concerns Matsushima Park Hotel are
brought into the homepage from national every place and its substantial
contents are featured in the mass media such as newspapers now.
The recollections which I can't forget personally came back to me. It was
the episode in around 1962, at that time -- the beginning days of TV --
there was the series teleplay titled "The Marriage of My Daughter" (which I
memorize such a title surely) at 8:00 p.m. to 9:00, the prime time. In this
drama the producer, Edajima Takashi (Shinkokugeki) cast Mizushima Michitaro
(a noted actor of those days) as the hero and Manami Fuji (22 or 23 years
old of that time) who is the actress playing an active part still , as the
heroine. The story was unfolded in "Matsushima Park Hotel" , and I received
the role of two scenes and three cuts, although it was an extra. It was
grease paint makeup. I also got help by the makeup man and experienced the
grease paint makeup like most actors those days.
Especially an unforgettable memory even now is that famous Mr. Mizushima
directed my performance several times ...
I also had the memory that Mr. Edajima could often do the talk of the
dramaturgy on the train of Senseki Line. Miss Fuji was always studying for
the interval of a rehearsal eagerly looking through newspapers, I can bring
the figure to mind clearly; therefore she keeps the shining actress life.
Now, I aimed at the moment for a good picture in front of the television
when the screen would be projected surely. And it is this photograph that I
was cut and taken from that circle cathode-ray tube.
Of course, my voice passed at the moment as postrecording ...
It is the recollections tinged with sepia which I can't forget throughout
my life. It is also "still engraved in the page of the heart as
recollections of my youth."
