I study orchestral music. Este is a rock legend and comes in and plays bass and synths. We are a good team to deal with all those.”Kent, while talking about drawing inspirations from other romantic comedies said, “We had a lot of rom-com film scores in our heads as we were assembling the film and finding our tone and footing.Yamate also added that for the main essence of the film, “he tried to hit the heart and the tone of what it means to love your brother and possibly lose him. Este has siblings. I have a sister.
