Production Ideas for A Thousand Cranes

- At 7:38, the hospital people, while saying "leukemia," they bring on a hospital coat and put it on Sadako after cornering her.

- While counting, to keep the beat and unison, there is a type of noise.

- In the scene when Sadako is sleeping, instead of the sleep-talking immediately happening, it seems as if Grandmother comes and tucks Sadako in. I think it makes a lot more sense.
