  • Japanese Cinema’S Logic], Tokyo: SanIchi Shobo¯
    14 DARK VISIONS OF JAPANESE FILM NOIR Suzuki Seijun’s Branded to Kill (1967) Daisuke Miyao I think that motion pictures should create events by themselves . They should not restrict themselves to merely recreating what has actually happened . Once such events created on the screen occur in reality, motion pictures begin to have a relationship with the society for the first time. (Suzuki Seijun quoted in Ueno 1991: 114) Suzuki Seijun’s 1967 film Branded to Kill (Koroshi no rakuin – hereafter Branded) – the story of a contract killer being dismissed by a gangster organization – created a controversial real life incident when Nikkatsu, one of Japan’s oldest film studios, dismissed Suzuki, then one if its contract directors, ten months after its release. On April 25, 1968, Suzuki was directing the television series Aisai-kun konbanwa: aru ketto¯ [Good Evening, Mr Devoted Husband: A Duel]. He received a telephone call from the secretary of Hori Kyu¯saku, the president of Nikkatsu, and was told that the studio would not pay his salary for April. Just like that, Suzuki Seijun was fired from Nikkatsu. To be sure, Branded had not been a financial and critical success. The film journal Kinema Junpo¯ reported that the release of Branded on a double feature with A Bug That Eats Flowers (Hana wo ku¯ mushi, Nishimura Sho¯goro¯, 1967) ‘resulted in less than 2,000 viewers at Asakusa and Shinjuku and about 500 in Yu¯rakucho¯ on the second day’ (quoted in Ueno 1986: 336). Indeed, Yamatoya Atsushi (1994: 38), one of Branded’s screenwriters, recalls that the Nikkatsu theater in Shinjuku where the film was originally screened was more or less empty on its opening day.

  • Kunigami Diss Final2
    OF CLOUDS AND BODIES: FILM AND THE DISLOCATION OF VISION IN BRAZILIAN AND JAPANESE INTERWAR AVANT-GARDES A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by André Keiji Kunigami August, 2018 © 2018 André Keiji Kunigami OF CLOUDS AND BODIES: FILM AND THE DISLOCATION OF VISION IN BRAZILIAN AND JAPANESE INTERWAR AVANT-GARDES André Keiji Kunigami, Ph. D. Cornell University 2018 Of Clouds and Bodies: Film and the Dislocation of Vision in Brazilian and Japanese Interwar Avant-gardes examines the political impact of film in conceptualizations of the body, vision, and movement in the 1920s and 1930s avant-gardes of Brazil and Japan. Through photographs, films, and different textual genres—travel diary, screenplay, theoretical essay, movie criticism, novel—I investigate the similar political role played by film in these “non-Western” avant-gardes in their relation to the idea of modernity, usually equivalent to that of the “West.” I explore racial, political, and historical entanglements that emerge when debates on aesthetic form encounters the filmic medium, theorized and experienced by the so-called “non-Western” spectator. Through avant-garde films such as Mário Peixoto’s Limite (1930), and Kinugasa Teinosuke’s A Page of Madness (1926); the theorizations of Octávio de Faria and Tanizaki Jun’ichirō; and the photographs and writings by Mário de Andrade and Murayama Tomoyoshi, this dissertation follows the clash between the desire for a universal and disembodied vision, and the encounter with filmic perception. I argue that the filmic apparatus, as a technology and a commodity, emphasizes an embodied and localized experience of vision and time that revealed the discourse on cultural-historical iii difference—the distinction between West and Rest, or modern and non-modern—as a suppressive modulator of material power dynamics embedded in racial, class, and gender hierarchies enjoyed by the cosmopolitan elite in the “peripheral” spaces.

  • Japanese Art Cinema: an Sample Study
    Japanese Art Cinema: An Sample Study Date/Location of Sample Study: 21st June 2012, The Hostry, Norwich Cathedral, Third Thursday Lecture Series, Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures Dr Rayna Denison with Dr Woojeong Joo What is Japanese cinema? Who does it belong to – the people of Japan, or a global audience? Outside of Japan, what does Japanese cinema mean to people? The rather muddled understanding of Japanese cinema, as popular cinema or art cinema still matters, because the representational stakes are high: which films travel to where is important because films often become enmeshed in wider discussions about ‘ideology’ and ‘culture.’ In academia, publishers and scholars have tended to focus on films that are internationally available, which therefore means that only certain films get ‘speak’ the Japanese nation, while others remain invisible to international audiences. Given that our earliest international understandings of ‘Japanese cinema’ came through film festivals and were consequently driven by notions of ‘art cinema,’ it is worth exploring an audience’s understandings of internationally distributed Japanese cinema today against this ‘traditional’ sense of an international Japanese film culture. By focusing on Japanese ‘art cinema’ for this study, we want to unpack a little of what this term means beyond academia (particularly given how infrequently academics engage with this category overtly); to seek out some of the meanings of contemporary Japanese cinema by asking people what they think counts within the category of ‘Japanese art cinema.’ We want to revisit the slippery category of ‘art cinema’ through an exploratory qualitative analysis of a UK sample audience’s responses to a simple question: How would you define ‘Japanese art cinema’? To help clarify the definitions provided, the sample group was also asked to provide exemplar film texts.

  • Cosmopolitanism, Remediation and the Ghost World of Bollywood
    COSMOPOLITANISM, REMEDIATION, AND THE GHOST WORLD OF BOLLYWOOD DAVID NOVAK CUniversity ofA California, Santa Barbara Over the past two decades, there has been unprecedented interest in Asian popular media in the United States. Regionally identified productions such as Japanese anime, Hong Kong action movies, and Bollywood film have developed substantial nondiasporic fan bases in North America and Europe. This transnational consumption has passed largely under the radar of culturalist interpretations, to be described as an ephemeral by-product of media circulation and its eclectic overproduction of images and signifiers. But culture is produced anew in these “foreign takes” on popular media, in which acts of cultural borrowing channel emergent forms of cosmopolitan subjectivity. Bollywood’s global circulations have been especially complex and surprising in reaching beyond South Asian diasporas to connect with audiences throughout the world. But unlike markets in Africa, Eastern Europe, and Southeast Asia, the growing North American reception of Bollywood is not necessarily based on the films themselves but on excerpts from classic Bollywood films, especially song-and- dance sequences. The music is redistributed on Western-produced compilations andsampledonDJremixCDssuchasBollywood Beats, Bollywood Breaks, and Bollywood Funk; costumes and choreography are parodied on mainstream television programs; “Bollywood dancing” is all over YouTube and classes are offered both in India and the United States.1 In this essay, I trace the circulation of Jaan Pehechaan Ho, a song-and-dance sequence from the 1965 Raja Nawathe film Gumnaam that has been widely recircu- lated in an “alternative” nondiasporic reception in the United States. I begin with CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY, Vol. 25, Issue 1, pp.

  • UX and Agile: a Bollywood Blockbuster Masala
    UX and Agile: A Bollywood blockbuster masala Pradeep Joseph UXD Manager Juniper Networks Bangalore What is Bollywood? Wikipedia says: The name "Bollywood" is derived from Bombay (the former name for Mumbai) and Hollywood, the center of the American film industry. However, unlike Hollywood, Bollywood does not exist as a physical place. Bollywood films are mostly musicals, and are expected to contain catchy music in the form of song-and-dance numbers woven into the script. Indian audiences expect full value for their money. Songs and dances, love triangles, comedy and dare-devil thrills are all mixed up in a three-hour- long extravaganza with an intermission. Such movies are called masala films, after the Hindi word for a spice mixture. Like masalas, these movies are a mixture of many things such as action, comedy, romance and so on. Melodrama and romance are common ingredients to Bollywood films. They frequently employ formulaic ingredients such as star-crossed lovers and angry parents, love triangles, family ties, sacrifice, corrupt politicians, kidnappers, conniving villains, courtesans with hearts of gold, long-lost relatives and siblings separated by fate, dramatic reversals of fortune, and convenient coincidences. What has UX and Agile got to do with Bollywood? As a Designer I faced tremendous challenges while moving into an Agile environment. While drowning the sorrows with designers from other organizations I came to realize that they too face similar challenges. This inspired me to explore further into what makes designers sad, what makes them suck and what are the ways in which they can contribute more in an Agile environment.

L’évènement « Japonismes 2018 », non content de marquer d’une pierre blanche plus de 100 ans de cinéma japonais, à sa manière mettra aussi à l’honneur un siècle de cinéphilie française ; depuis les années 1910, quand Louis Delluc ne cachait pas son émotion devant la modernité du jeu de Sessue Hayakawa dans le Forfaiture de Cecil B. DeMille, la production du Soleil levant est devenue le fantasme inta- rissable d’un certain public qui, déjà au XIXe siècle, s’extasiait devant le nouveau vocabulaire plastique que proposaient les estampes orientales. PETITE HISTOIRE D’UNE PERCEPTION FRANÇAISE Il a fallu attendre les années 1920 pour que cette production commence à s’expor- ter épisodiquement. Si l’on excepte quelques pantomimes filmées anonymement, c’est pour la première fois en mars 1926 qu’est présenté au public un film japo- nais dans le mythique Studio des Ursulines, vieux théâtre de quartier reconverti depuis peu en salle d’art et d’essai. Musume (Ai no Himitsu) de Frank Tokunaga fut donc projeté entre un court métrage de René Clair et un autre de Louis Feuillade lors d’une de ces matinées réservées aux membres.
