Descripción
Sumario:Drawing on much Japanese film scholarship that is relatively unknown outside of Japan, this book offers a fresh look at the development of the highly influential Japanese film industry, covering the work of many lesser known but important directors as well those with established worldwide reputations. In this major new study of a century of Japanese narrative filmmaking, Isolde Standish provides an in-depth chronological survey of a huge range of films. The book draws upon a great deal of Japanese film scholarship that has never been published outside of Japan, and sheds light on films and directors that are not so famous on the international stage, as well as on those who are (Ozu, Mizoguchi, and Kurosawa). The book also features extensive appendices, including a full filmography and biographical information on prominent people in the Japanese film industry.
