Journey to Japan Sleepover: Top Films
Top 10 Japanese flms Japanese cinema is among the most famous and celebrated in the world. It dates all the way back to 1897, when the Lumière Brothers’ cinematograph (a camera which could record, develop and project flm) arrived in Japan. However, moving pictures already existed in the form of Utsushi-e. This was a type of magic lantern show which used a projector to show colourful fgures moving on the screen as a storyteller narrated. Kagee (shadow puppets), emakimono (picture scrolls like the one above) and manga (graphic novels) were also developed in Japan and inspired modern Japanese anime (hand-drawn or computer animation). We’ve picked some of our favourite flms so snuggle up and get stuck in! All the flms on this list have a PG rating. Let us know if you watch any of our Saru no soshi emaki 猿草子絵巻 (Tale of the Monkeys). Ink painting recommendations! You can email your reviews on paper, Japan, 1560–1570s. to [email protected] 1 Spirited Away (2001) 千と千尋の神隠し This wonderful animated flm is written and directed by the famous Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki. It features the adventures of a 10-year-old girl called Chihiro. After accidentally discovering an abandoned theme park, she is soon swept into a world of magic, spirits and witches. Netfix 2 The Castle of Cagliostro (1979) ルパン三世カリオストロの城 Part action, part comedy, this is the story of a charming thief who embarks on a quest to free a princess from an evil count.

The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness
A Film by Mami Sunada THE KINGDOM OF DREAMS AND MADNESS A look inside the fantastically mad world of the people behind Studio Ghibli PRESENTED BY Dwango IN COOPERATION WITH Studio Ghibli PRODUCED BY Nobuo Kawakami WRITTEN AND DIRECTED BY Mami Sunada MUSIC BY Masakatsu Takagi PRODUCTION COMPANY ENNET Technical Specification FORMAT Digital ASPECT RATIO 1920 x 1080 SOUND 5.1ch COLOR Color RUNNING TIME 118 minutes LANGUAGE Japanese with subtitles PRODUCTION YEAR 2013 COPYRIGHT NOTICE © 2013 dwango ABOUT THE FILM There have been numerous documentaries about Studio Ghibli made for television and for DVD features, but no one had ever conceived of making a theatrical documentary feature about the famed animation studio. That is precisely what filmmaker Mami Sunada set out to do in her first film since her acclaimed directorial debut, Death of a Japanese Salesman. With near-unfettered access inside the studio, Sunada follows the key personnel at Ghibli – director Hayao Miyazaki, producer Toshio Suzuki and the elusive “other” director, Isao Takahata – over the course of approximately one year as the studio rushes to complete their two highly anticipated new films, Miyazaki’s The Wind Rises and Takahata’s The Tale of The Princess Kaguya. The result is a rare glimpse into the inner workings of one of the most celebrated animation studios in the world, and a portrait of their dreams, passion and dedication that borders on madness. DIRECTOR: MAMI SUNADA Born in 1978, Mami Sunada studied documentary filmmaking while at Keio University before apprenticing as a director’s assistant under Hirokazu Kore-eda and others.

Portrayals of Police and Crime in Japanese Anime and Manga
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository ALL THE EVIL OF GOOD: PORTRAYALS OF POLICE AND CRIME IN JAPANESE ANIME AND MANGA By Katelyn Mitchell Honors Thesis Department of Asian Studies University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 23, 2015 Approved: INGER BRODEY (Student’s Advisor) 1 “All the Evil of Good”: Portrayals of Police and Crime in Japanese Anime and Manga By Katelyn Mitchell “Probity, sincerity, candor, conviction, the idea of duty, are things that, when in error, can turn hideous, but – even though hideous, remain great; their majesty, peculiar to the human conscience, persists in horror…Nothing could be more poignant and terrible than [Javert’s] face, which revealed what might be called all the evil of good” -Victor Hugo, Les Misérables Volume I, Book VIII, Chapter III: “Javert Satisfied” Abstract This thesis examines and categorizes the distinct, primarily negative, portrayals of law enforcement in Japanese literature and media, beginning with its roots in kabuki drama, courtroom narratives and samurai codes and tracing it through modern anime and manga. Portrayals of police characters are divided into three distinct categories: incompetents used as a source of comedy; bland and consistently unsuccessful nemeses to charismatic criminals, used to encourage the audience to support and favor these criminals; or cold antagonists fanatically devoted to their personal definition of ‘justice’, who cause audiences to question the system that created them. This paper also examines Western influences, such as Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and Victor Hugo’s Inspector Javert, on these modern media portrayals.

C h a p t e r 5 B RINGING IT A LL T OGETHER : S TUDIO G HIBLI Several months aft er the Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind manga started its run in 1982, Miyazaki was hired, along with his colleagues Isao Takahata, Yasuo Ō tsuka, and Yoshifumi Kond ō , to take part in the production of Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland . Th e ambitious American/Japanese coproduction adapted the classic comic strip by cartoonist and animation pioneer Winsor McCay about a boy who, each night, goes on a strange adventure in his dreams. McCay’s work had many fans on both sides of the Pacifi c: in fact, the project was initiated by Japanese producer Yutaka Fujioka, the president of Tokyo Movie Shinsha, the studio that previously employed Miyazaki and Takahata on Moomins , the Panda! Go Panda! fi lms, and the Lupin productions. Many other notable fi gures have been involved with diff erent stages of the production including Jean Giraud, renowned science fi ction author Ray Bradbury, and screenwriter Chris Columbus (future director of the early Harry Potter fi lms).

A Ghost Story
Presents A GHOST STORY A film by David Lowery (93 min., USA, 2017) Language: English Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1352 Dundas St. West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1Y2 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com @MongrelMedia MongrelMedia SYNOPSIS With A GHOST STORY acclaimed director David Lowery (AIN'T THEM BODIES SAINTS, PETE'S DRAGON) returns with a singular exploration of legacy, loss, and the essential human longing for meaning and connection. Recently deceased, a white-sheeted ghost (Academy Award-winner Casey Affleck) returns to his suburban home to console his bereft wife (Academy Award-nominee Rooney Mara), only to find that in his spectral state he has become unstuck in time, forced to watch passively as the life he knew and the woman he loves slowly slip away. Increasingly unmoored, the ghost embarks on a cosmic journey through memory and history, confronting life’s ineffable questions and the enormity of existence. An unforgettable meditation on love and grief, A GHOST STORY emerges ecstatic and surreal — a wholly unique experience that lingers long after the credits roll. ABOUT THE PRODUCTION Months before delighting global audiences with the critically acclaimed PETE’S DRAGON remake for the Walt Disney Company in the summer of 2016, writer-director David Lowery was already immersed in his next project — an independently produced, under-the-radar ghost story set in his native Texas that reunites the stars of his breakout feature, AIN'T THEM BODIES SAINTS.
