i regret to contradict, i do not think we hear a true Kyoto dialect in this clip. it sounds more like Osaka than Kyoto

Yamamoto Fujiko speaks a good Kyoto accent in this movie. i guess she could master it because she spent her student days in Kyoto and had relatives there too. besides, she is very intelligent

where is she?

i would love to see clips with her in them because she is sooo pretty

this is just pure subjectivity, but i cannot think of a more beautiful japanese actress than Fujiko

Wonderful Kyoto dialect! The broom is just one in a long list of unspoken language at the ancient capital.
