About This Item
London: Secker & Warburg, 1972. Jacket design: Philip Mann. This book is an extensively revised, expanded and updated version of 'Japanese movies', Japan Travel Bureau, 1961. The author relates the films to the other artforms, and the traditions and attitudes of the Japanese people. He is thus able to refute the occasional Western objections that Japanese movies are sentimental, or boring or full of clichés. The book discusses not only the well-known classics of such directors as Kurosawa and Mizoguchi, but also the popular 'entertainment' films as well. Contents: 1). Introduction. 2). 1896-1945. 3). 1946-1971. 4). Index. 144 illustations. 250 pag.. 1st edition. Cloth with dustjacket. Good copy.. 22cmx14cm.
