Some 2,000 research fellows, grad­ uate students, and professionals in business and government each year work with the Center's international staff in cooperative study, training, and research. They examine major issues related to population, resources and development, the environment, culture, and communication in Asia, the Pacific, and the United States. The Center was established in 1960 by the United States Congress, which provides principal funding. Support also comes from more than twenty Asian and Pacific governments, as well as private agencies and corporations. Kurosawa's Ran: Reception and Interpretation ANN THOMPSON AKIRA KUROSAWA'S Ran (literally, war, riot, or chaos) was chosen as the first film to be shown at the First Tokyo International Film Festival in June 1985, and it opened commercially in Japan to record-breaking busi­ ness the next day. The director did not attend the festivities associated with the premiere, however, and the reception given to the film by Japa­ nese critics and reporters, though positive, was described by a French critic who had been deeply involved in the project as having "something of the air of an official embalming" (Raison 1985, 9).

  • Akira Kurosawa's Lear: Ran and the Failure of the Samurai Ethic
    1 Akira Kurosawa’s Lear: Ran and the Failure of the Samurai Ethic “Cineaste: You mentioned in an interview in a Japanese magazine that in Ran you wanted to depict a man’s karma from a “heavenly” viewpoint. Will you elaborate? Akira Kurosawa: I did not exactly say that. Japanese reporters always misunderstand or conveniently summarize what I really say. What I meant was that some of the essential scenes of this film are based on my wondering how God and Buddha, if they actually exist, perceive this human life, this mankind stuck in the same absurd behavior patterns. Kagemusha is made from the viewpoint of one of Kagemusha [shadow warrior—ed.] who sees the specific battles which he is involved in, and moreover the civil war period in general, from a very circumscribed point of view. This time, in Ran, I wanted to suggest a larger viewpoint . more objectively. I did not mean that I wanted to see through the eyes of a heavenly being. I believe that the world would not change even if I made a direct statement: do this and do that. Moreover, the world will not change unless we steadily change human nature itself and our very way of thinking. We have to exorcise the essential evil in human nature, rather than presenting concrete solutions to problems or directly depicting social problems. Therefore, my films might have become more philosophical.” + + + Just as Kurosawa reworked Shakespeare’s Macbeth in his Throne of Blood and reworked the main themes and characters of Hamlet in The Bad Sleep Well, Kurosawa in the last phase of his career chose to rework King Lear in his film Ran (or “Chaos”).

  • Kihachi Okamoto Nace En 1924 En Yonago, Totori
    Kihachi Okamoto Nace en 1924 en Yonago, Totori. Se traslada a Tokio en 1941 para ingresar en la Universidad Meiji. Allí se convierte en un ávido cinéfago, aficionado a las películas estadounidenses de acción y a las comedias francesas. Se gradúa en 1943 y entra en la Toho como ayudante de producción. Poco después es reclutado y llevado a la escuela del ejército para oficiales en la reserva, desde donde vio el final de la guerra. En 1945 vuelve a Tokio y trabaja como ayudante de dirección para Taniguchi, Makino o Naruse. En 1957 la Toho anuncia un proceso de selección para ascender a los ayudantes de dirección que presentaran el mejor guión. La sinopsis de ¡Oh, mi bomba! y el guión de El forajido solitario le hicieron ganar el ascenso y para su debut se le asignó la comedia Todo sobre el matrimonio, en 1958. El forajido solitario, su quinta película, basada en su propio guión, fue un enorme éxito en 1959. Su reputación se construyó en paralelo a la de otros cineastas jóvenes del momento: Suzuki, Masumura, Imamura y Oshima. Se convirtió en el director habitual de las películas de acción de la Toho. En 1974 creó la productora Kihachi y se despidió de Toho. Aunque es un director relativamente desconocido en Occidente, sus historias llenas de humor y ritmo son muy populares en Japón. Murió el 19 de febrero de 2005 cuando estaba a punto de comenzar su película número 40. Una reescritura del cine de género “Si Kurosawa es el John Ford de las películas de samuráis, Okamoto es el Samuel Fuller del género” dijo en una ocasión el crítico estadounidense Bruce Eder.
