(★)(´BM-0020´y ´BM-0024´ son mismos libros.)(Called ´the dean of Japan´s arts critics´ by Time magazine and acknowledged as the foremost Western authority on the Japanese film, Donald Richie gives us an incisive, detailed, and highly illustrated history of the country´s cinema. From its inception in the late 1800s through the achievements of Kurosawa, Mizoguchi, Ozu, and on to the notable works of today´s young filmmakers, this concise but panoramic history offers an unparalleled view of the growth and development of the motion picture in Japan. ／As Paul Schrader writes in his perceptive foreword, Richie´s new accounting of the Japanese film ´retains his sensitivity to the actual circumstances of film production (something filmmakers know very well but historians often overlook)... and shows the interweave of filmmaking --the contribution of directors, writers, cinematographers, actors, musicians, art directors, as well as financiers.´ ／Of primary interest to those who would like to watch the works introduced in these pages, Richie has provided capsule reviews of the major subtitled Japanese films commercially available in VHS and DVD formats. The American distributors of these films are listed, as are the Japanese makers of important non-subtitled VHS/DVDs discussed in this volume. For the first time under one cover, the interested reader now has a concise guide to available films alongside what he or she is reading about. ◆Former Curator of Film at the New York Museum of Modern Art, Donald Richie has written some forty books on Japan and its people. The film version of his travel classic, ´The Inland Sea´, has been shown on PBS and won several prizes at international film festivals, as well as the National Geographic Earth Award. ´Public People, Private People´, his portraits of famous and far-from-famous Japanese, received praise from many quarters. Of Richie´s two collections of essays, ´A Lateral View and Partial Views´, Susan Sontag has said : ´Donald Richie writes about Japan with an unrivaled range, acuity, and wit.´ Richie´s collected writings on Japan, his adopted home for over fifty years, appear in ´The Donald Richie Reader (2001)´. ▼CONTENTS／ ●I-A CONCISE HISTORY OF JAPANESE FILM／ ●1.Beginnings and the Benshi／Film, Theater, and Actors／Realism and Reality／Western Influences／´Shingeki´ and New Narrative Tactics／The ´Gendaigeki´／ ●2.Taisho Democracy and Shochiku／The New Gendaigeki : Shimazu, Gosho, Shimizu, Ozu, and Naruse／The New ´Jidaigeki´ : Itami, Inagaki, ito, and Yamanaka Sadao／Nikkatsu and the ´Shimpa´ : Mizoguchi Kenji／Expressionism, Kinugasa Teinosuke, and the Leftist Film／Criticism and Crackdown : World War II／ ●3.The Occupation of Japan／Postwar Developments／Ozu and Naruse／Mizoguchi and the Period-Film／New Means : ´Jun-bungaku´, Comedy, and Social Issues／ ●4.The Advent of Television and the Film´s Defenses : Suzuki, Nakahira, Kawashima, and Imamura／The Early Independents : Hani and Teshigahara／The ´New Wave´ : Oshima, Yoshida, and Shinoda／After the Wave／ ●5.Making Audiences／The New Independents／Documentary and ´Anime´／Conclusion／ ●II-A SELECTIVE GUIDE TO VIDEOS AND DVDs／) |
