I'm not saying many JAV actresses don't do a good job of expressing how much trouble they are in, within the usual damsel-in-distress movies. But aside from the troubled expressions and the little-girl squeals, we usually don't get much more.
I'm referring to "soft r***" movies, where the assailant is the boss, the brother/father-in-law, and not what you might call an "official criminal." For example, while I don't go for "hard r***" movies, one that I downloaded recently is fresh on my mind -- because it employed a theme I like, mothers and daughters. (Happened to be Content Limits - Assaulted Mother and Daughter Video So Tragic That It Stirred Controversy [EQ-228], if you must know.) In this kind of movie, we get the requisite kicking and screaming... but I'm not talking about such extreme reactions. (And I know r*** is r***, and there is really no such thing as soft or hard; just trying to make a distinction for the purposes of our discussion... so get off my case already, willya.)
While going on and on with making myself clear, I'd also like to dispatch with another possibility of reaction, which may only be called as "Looking for JAV Where Woman Get r***ing But 'Desperately Try to Act Tough'"... as the thread devoted to that particular topic termed it.
No, what we're talking about is the usual. The lady gets attacked, she protests, gives in quickly, looks disturbed/or is in such turmoil, she looks completely at a loss, and then her reactions are quickly replaced by orgasmic surrender.
This is why when I chanced upon...
Rin Ogawa
RBD-679- cover
...I really stood up and took notice. She may not be the most "beautiful" woman, but I tell you, when I caught her in Obedient Careerwoman [RBD-679], well... here is how I worded it when I first wrote about her on this page:
She is a wonderful actress, conveying the sense of despair and entrapment and fear better than the average jeopardized lass. She makes for an excellent lady in distress, and I'm happy to see she has done many more ATTACKERS movies...
In the clutches of Scraggly
Maybe she hams it up a little, but she gives the kind of performance that really adds to one's "turn-on" machinery. She pops open her eyes as if to say "how can this be happening?" and she gurgles... she sticks out her tongue... she's absolutely terrific!
Panic. Desperation. These are the qualities that can really enhance a damsel-in-distress performance, but often go missing with the walkthroughs many other actresses can muster.
Another of her titles where she excelled was Married Office Lady, Document of Passion, To the Fringes of Shame... [ADN-044]. I've also seen her in another vehicle where she tried her hand at a more aggressive role, and I noticed she put a lot of heart into that kind of role, as well. She is simply superb.
In the She Stands Out in a Crowd thread, I pointed out another actress who adds another layer to her performances with her great expressions, and that actress is Yurie Matsushima.
JUC-989 - AV Debut
Here is what I wrote:
...What I like about Yurie is that she doesn't simply "take it" and suffer, like the bulk of the other JAV actresses . She really conveys that deer-caught-in-the-headlights type of sensibility. She is so amazingly expressive, allowing us to read all kinds of emotions -- including surprise, reluctance, disgust, helplessness and ultimately, pleasure. I find her to be very special.
Finally, another actress who manages a better-than-average job with her "going-the-extra-mile" reactions is...
Maika Asai
It was Blah13 (one of our members who unfortunately does not blah-blah too often) who pointed out Maika's preferred propensity to perform perturbedly. It was only later that I remembered how much I love Maika Asai, as I had also spotlighted in the She Stands Out in a Crowd thread. I remembered how much I appreciated her in Beautiful Big-Breasted 50-Year-Old Wife Rendered a Sex Object to Be Cum Inside Of [EMBZ-002], among other movies.
Blah13 mentioned that it was MAC-24 ("Mother Endures Satisfaction") where he had first taken notice of her, and while he did not find her spectacular at first, "something about her performance just wouldn't let my mind forget about her." We can't say that sort of thing about many actresses, so already that is a kind of ringing endorsement. (You can check out MAC-24 in the archives. I also see Casshern2 has recently offered, with one of his beautiful watermark-free gifts to us, Maika in TSH-007, where she has been featured among others.)
I dug up Maika from MEYD-838, one from the "Friend's Mother - I Got Banged By My Son's Friends, And Came Over and Over..." series, a series I have an appreciation for... and she was unsurprisingly enjoyable to watch. Yet it was Married Woman Bound and Taken By Other Guys [JUX-309] where I got a better sense of Maika's ability to emote more-than-the-usual devastation. I'll need to study her more carefully, and maybe you will, too.
While I've got you, I'd like to add a thought that applies to the damsel-in-distress movies. I've noticed a new twist to some of the movies of this mold (especially refreshing, because one weak point about JAV is that they usually follow the exact same formula with a series idea... sometimes scene-by-scene. It's very frustrating when they rarely add any kind of a twist, as if they are convinced what they have come up with is so perfect). It's this:
Once the breakthrough has been made with the victim, we now sometimes get a series of very brief vignettes, showing the villain having sex with the victim in different settings... giving the idea that the victim has been hopelessly ensnared even deeper. Whomever came up with that idea got to the heart of the matter, and I wish they would have come up with it sooner. (Naturally, this is also one idea now being used over and over, in faithful formula repetition, but it happens to be one I hope they will keep using.)
All right. So to wrap up, the idea is to point out actresses who noticeably express the composure they are losing, going beyond the usual acting job. The kind of extra effort that make the goings-on more believable -- and more kinky -- as opposed to a lot of actresses who simply go through the motions.
