We all went to Japan and lived our lives together, many of us feeling like babies as we looked around our new home with wonder and amazement and suckled from the teat of the Japanese government.

  • Samurai, Eros E Pallottole I Primi Cento Anni Della Nikkatsu
    COMUNICATO STAMPA Il Museo Nazionale del Cinema presenta al Cinema Massimo Samurai, eros e pallottole I primi cento anni della Nikkatsu Prima Parte 22 – 29 febbraio 2012 Cinema Massimo - via Verdi, 18, Torino Il Museo Nazionale del Cinema celebra il primo centenario della nascita della Nikkatsu – una delle più antiche e prestigiose case di produzione cinematografica giapponesi – con un’ampia retrospettiva dal titolo Samurai, eros e pallottole. I Primi cento anni della Nikkatsu , curata da Dario Tomasi. La seconda parte della rassegna si svolgerà dal 17 al 24 marzo 2012. L’omaggio è un progetto di Nikkatsu realizzato dal Museo Nazionale del Cinema con il sostegno dell’ Istituto Giapponese di Cultura di Roma e la collaborazione della Cinémathèque française . Fondata nel 1912, la Nikkatsu è la casa di produzione cinematografica più antica del Giappone. La sua lunga storia è specchio delle profonde trasformazioni avvenute nel cinema e nella società nipponici. Dai film storici di Sh ōzō Makino e Kenji Mizouchi - spesso costruiti sulla figura del samurai - ai thriller di Imamura Sh ōhei - uno dei più validi esponenti della Nouvelle Vague giapponese del secondo dopoguerra - la celebre compagnia giapponese ha saputo spaziare nei generi più diversi fino ad arrivare a una svolta rivoluzionaria con la geniale invenzione del Roman Porno, indovinata soluzione alle ricorrenti crisi dell’industria cinematografica nipponica dei primi anni ‘70. Genere sontuoso ed elegante dove l’erotismo si accompagna a tocchi di surrealismo inconsueto, il Roman Porno ha visto l’affermarsi di una generazione di talentuosi cineasti, come Tatsumi Kumashiro, Ch ūsei Sone, Noboru Tanaka e Masaru Konuma.

  • Seijun Suzuki. Marcado Por El Crimen (Jesús Palacios)
    SEIJUN SUZUKI. MARCADO POR EL CRIMEN _______________________________________________ Rompiendo las reglas Si hay un cineasta japonés que representa la máxima expresión de la creatividad y libertad formal que la Serie B puede otorgar –y quitar- a quienes se ven atrapados en sus redes, ése es Seijun Suzuki (1923-2017). Durante las décadas de los 50 y 60 Suzuki trabajó a ritmo endiablado para la productora Nikkatsu, especializándose en películas de bajo coste y géneros populares, programa B de los estrenos del momento. Tras comenzar como ayudante para otros nombres de la casa, en 1956 realizaría su primer film como director, Victory is Mine (Minato no kanpai: Shori o Waga Te ni), historia ligera de amor y gánsters perteneciente al género del Kayo-eiga, dirigido al público juvenil y basado en éxitos de la música pop. Sería el primero de los 39 que rodaría para Nikkatsu. Pero es Underworld Beauty (Ankokugai no bijo, 1958), su tercera película y primera firmada como Seijun Suzuki –su verdadero nombre era Seitaro- la que supondría su debut dentro del cine yakuza, al que permanecería ya siempre unido pese a incursiones tan memorables en otros géneros como Gate of Flesh (Nikutai no mon, 1964), adaptación de la descarnada novela erótica de Taijiro Tamura, padre de la Nikutai Bungaku (literatura de la carne). Pese al éxito, Suzuki se aburría. Las fórmulas repetitivas y fijas del género encorsetaban una imaginación permanentemente necesitada de jugar con los límites narrativos. El cambio empieza a operarse en Youth of the Beast (Yaju no seishun, 1963), Cosecha roja a la yakuza con su actor fetiche, Jo Shishido -el hombre de los pómulos imposibles-, a la que seguiría The Bastard (Akutaro, 1963), melodrama juvenil de época que deriva en toques oníricos y trágico erotismo.
