  • Thirteen Feature Films by Kon Ichikawa to Be Presented
    'he Museum of Modem Art %'^ Vest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Circle 5-8900 Cable: Modernart Wo. 20 FOR IM^'TEDIATE RELEASE Friday, February 10, 1967 Thirteen feature films by the Japanese director Kon Ichikawa will be presented by the Department of Film of The Museum of Modem Art from February 12 through February 27• The films range from Ichikawa's satirical comedies of the early *50*s to the more recent tragedies attempting to show the "pain of our age»" All of the films are in Japanese with English subtitles. Describing his work, Ichikawa says, "I try to visualize everything...I'm the kind of person who has to see something — even in my own imagination «•- before I understand it. I started as a painter and I think like one. That is wl:^ the camera is so important to me« I plan all the set-ups and I always check the framing, and I usually try to work with (a cameraman) I know.•••I design the sets too, usually... and I'd probably do the music too if I could." Film critic Donald Richie describes the resulting "Ichikawa look": "The angular pattern is usually bold, the balance is almost always asymmetrical, the framing is precise, and yet the composition rarely calls attention to itself*" At 18 after graduation from an Osaka commercial school Ichikawa began studying animation and in 19h6 completed a puppet-film based on a famous Kabuki dance. (The Occupation authorities, concerned with discovering "feudal remnants," seized the neg­ ative and it has never been found.) After that, Ichikawa joined Toho Production Company and began making satirical comedies until 1955 when he switched to more serious subject matter with The Burmese Harp* He says, "I had become aware that men are unhappy.

  • Two Masters of Japanese Cinema: Kaneto Shindo & Kozaburo Yoshimura Part
    PRESS RELEASE: May 2012 12/26 Two Masters of Japanese Cinema: Kaneto Shindo & Kozaburo Yoshimura at BFI Southbank in June and July 2012 April 2012 marks the 100th birthday of Kaneto Shindo, one of the leading talents in post-war Japanese film. Throughout June and July BFI Southbank will host a two-part retrospective which pays tribute both to Shindo himself and to his friend, colleague and contemporary Kozaburo Yoshimura (1911- 2000), one of the neglected masters of classical Japanese film. June’s programme focuses primarily on the 1950s, the period when their collaboration was closest. Yoshimura and Shindo’s work together constitute a revealing social history and include some of Japanese cinema’s most powerful and moving films. Beginning with a Season Introduction on Wed 6 June by the season’s curator Alexander Jacoby (Lecturer in Japanese Studies at Oxford Brookes University), Jacoby will explore the collaboration between Shindo and Yoshimura situating their work in the social, political and cinematic context of a rapidly changing post-war Japan. Shindo is a versatile director, skilled screenwriter and pioneer of independent production who has astonishingly remained active into very recent years, releasing his latest film, Postcard, at the age of 98. Under contract to Shochiku studios as respectively director and screenwriter, Yoshimura and Shindo initiated a fruitful collaboration with The Ball at the Anjo House (1947), a Chekhovian study of the decline of the pre-war aristocracy, which scooped the top prize in the critics’ poll conducted that year by the leading Japanese film magazine, Kinema Junpo. But both men found their creativity inhibited at Shochiku, and by the early 1950s had established their own independent production company, Kindai Eiga Kyokai.

  • RÉTROSPECTIVE OZU EN COULEURS - 6 Films Remasterisés Du 19 Août Au 08 Septembre 2020
    ÉTÉ 2020 RÉTROSPECTIVE www.cinema-star.com OZU EN COULEURS - 6 films remasterisés du 19 août au 08 septembre 2020 la fin des années 1950, le passage à la couleur, envisagé À comme nécessaire par toute l’industrie cinématographique japonaise, s’est déjà opéré pour de nombreux réalisateurs de studio. Mais pas pour Yasujiro Ozu, qui sait que le succès critique et public de ses films ne pourra plus lui permettre d’esquiver encore très long- temps la nouvelle tendance. Ce sont finalement six films en couleurs qu’il va tourner, de 1958 (Fleurs d’équinoxe) à 1962 (Le Goût du saké). Si l’abandon du noir et blanc ne va pas changer en profondeur sa grammaire cinématographique, elle va lui permettre d’enrichir sa vi- sion formaliste de la mise en scène. Ces six longs-métrages sont ceux d’un cinéaste au sommet de son art, qui, par ailleurs, revisite sa fil- mographie antérieure : ils sont en effet, pour la plupart, des remakes ou des relectures de son propre travail, tels les sublimes Herbes flot- tantes (1959) et Fin d’automne (1960). POUR LA PREMIÈRE FOIS AU CINÉMA EN VERSION RESTAURÉE DERNIER CAPRICE YASUJIRO OZU - 1961 - 1h43 - (JP) - VOST Avec Ganjiro NAKAMURA, Setsuko HARA, Hisaya MORISHIGE, Yoko TSUKASA... Manbei Kohayagawa est le patron d’une petite brasserie de saké au bord de la faillite. Le vieil homme est entouré de ses trois filles : l’aînée, Akiko, veuve et mère d’un petit garçon, qu’il souhaite remarier ; la cadette, Fumiko, dont l’époux, gérant de la brasserie, se dévoue corps et âme pour la survie de l’entreprise ; et la benjamine, Noriko, qui refuse tous les prétendants choisis par sa famille.

    KENJI MIZOGUCHI PROGRAMMATION KENJI MIZOGUCHI RÉTROSPECTIVE 15 MARS – 15 AVRIL Cinq femmes autour d’Utamaro 37 Femmes de la nuit POÈMES DE LA FORCE « Le 24 août 1956 mourait à Kyoto le plus grand cinéaste japonais. Et même l’un des plus grands cinéastes tout court. Kenji Mizoguchi était l’égal d’un Murnau ou d’un Rossellini... Si la poésie apparaît à chaque seconde, dans chaque plan que tourne Mizoguchi, c’est qu’elle est le reflet instinctif de la noblesse inven- tive de son auteur. » (Jean-Luc Godard, Arts, 5 février 1958) Si le cinéma n’était pas un art, l’œuvre de Kenji Mizoguchi n’en suffirait pas moins à l’inscrire au rang des plus hautes manifestations du génie humain. L’émotion qui étreint à la vision de ses films est une lame de fond souveraine et impavide qui dévaste l’âme sans retour. Ses mélodrames féminins, genre de récit dans lequel il s’est le plus souvent illustré, ne sont pas de ceux qui mendient les larmes, mais qui foudroient et font éprouver ce que Primo Levi appelait « la honte d’être un homme ». Un film, L’Intendant Sansho (1954), semble en cette qualité constituer la pierre de touche de son œuvre. Car à travers cette histoire féodale de deux enfants arra- chés à leurs parents, vendus comme esclaves à un tyran et traversant l’existence comme une vallée de douleurs, on reconnaît ce « Poème de la force » que Simone Weil évoquait à propos de l’Iliade : « L’âme humaine ne cesse pas d’y apparaître modifiée par ses rapports avec la force, entraînée, aveuglée, par la force dont elle CINEMATHEQUE.FR croit disposer, courbée sous la contrainte de la force qu’elle subit.

    Fin d’automne asujiro Ozu est une référence essen- L’ADRC Ytielle pour défi nir ce qu’est le cinéma. CARLOTTA FILMS Le génie d’Ozu consiste à allier la banalité présentent touchante d’histoires simples à la surpre- nante radicalité de la mise en scène. Ses fi lms, tournés quasi exclusivement au stu- dio de la Shochiku de 1927 à 1962, rendent sensible le passage du temps en articulant le quotidien au dramatique, le rituel au trivial. Son œuvre à l’évidente beauté et à la richesse inépuisable exprime au mieux le sentiment de la vie. Diane Arnaud Cette rétrospective en 10 fi lms, qui court sur une douzaine d’années, marque celle de la dernière période du cinéaste : celle des grands drames en noir et blanc tels que Printemps tardif (1949) ou Voyage à Tokyo (1953), de son passage à la couleur avec Fleurs d’équinoxe, de sa comédie sociale Bonjour (1959) et de son ultime chef-d’œuvre YASUJIRO OZU Le Goût du saké (1962).

  • Maestros Del Cine Japonés (I): Keisuke Kinoshita
    Maestros del cine japonés (II): Kenji Mizoguchi Es indiscutiblemente (con Yazujiro Ozu y, un poco más atrás y en un digno tercer esto, Akira Kurosawa) uno de los “tres grandes” de cine japonés. Nacido en Tokyo el 16 de mayo de 1998, Kenji Mizoguchi fue actor y asistente de dirección antes de realizar (en 1923) su primer film.. Una parte de su obra inicial, en parte perdida, consiste en adaptaciones literarias de autores occidentales, desde O’Neill a Maurice Leblanc. El propio Mizoguchi no recordaba cuántos films había realizado en su vida: calculaba que unos setenta y cinco, aunque el crítico norteamericano Dudley Andrew cree haber identificado ochenta y tres, y otras fuentes elevan la cifra a noventa y tres. A través de esa obra abundante, Mizoguchi desarrolló un estilo muy personal que para muchos se vincula a la idea misma del film japonés: historias de época, la presencia dominante y emblemática de una mujer, la cualidad pictórica que bordea y a veces incursiona en un clima onírico, un manejo de la composición y (en determinados casos) del color que privilegia el sentido gráfico sobre el realismo de los planteos. El “estilo Mizoguchi” se vuelve evidente delante de su asunto más obsesivo: la mujer oprimida y tiranizada. Sus personajes femeninos, alternativamente rebeldes o resignados a su destino, encontraron perfectas corporizaciones en actrices como Isuzu Yamada, Kinuyo Tanaka o Machhiko Kyo. Perseguidas por el destino, por el sufrimiento o por un fatalismo cruel, sus criaturas definen una visión del mundo y la sociedad donde la forma dramática es habitualmente la tragedia y donde el triunfo espiritual conduce, a menudo, a la muerte o la caída.

  • Confucian Philosophy in the Films of Akira Kurosawa Through the Documentary Film Medium
    Wu, Li-Hsueh Truth and Beauty: Confucian Philosophy in the Films of Akira Kurosawa Through the Documentary Film Medium Doctor of Design 2008 Swinburne Abstract This doctoral research consists of two 90 minute DVD documentaries and a complementary text about the Japanese film director, Akira Kurosawa, a major figure in 20th century cinema. It focuses on how the Confucian cultural heritage has informed many aspects of his approach to filmmaking, especially his manifestation of philosophical and aesthetic concepts. To bridge the gap in the existing critiques of Kurosawa’s films, the research incorporates critical analysis of interviews with twelve filmmakers and scholars in philosophy, history, arts, drama and film. The interviews discuss the aesthetic elements from traditional arts and theatre, and address a failure in the literature to draw from the deep meaning of the Confucian cultural heritage. The first documentary, An Exploration of Truth in the Films of Akira Kurosawa, has three sections: The Way of Self- Cultivation, The Way of Cultivating Tao and The Way of Cultivating Buddhism. It explores how the films of Kurosawa manifested the Confucian philosophy via inner self-cultivation, which displayed his humanist values. It also examines the ‘outer enlightenment pattern’ in Kurosawa’s films which effects profound dramatic tension. The interrelationship between Confucianism, Shinto and Buddhism in different periods of Kurosawa’s films is explored, focusing on issues of historical background, cultural heritage and philosophy and film narrative elements. The second documentary, The Origin and Renovation of Traditional Arts and I Theatre in the Films of Akira Kurosawa, has three sections: Structure and Mise-En-Scene from Noh and Kabuki, Representation and Symbolism from Noh Masks and Chinese Painting and Color and Mise-En-Scene from The ‘Five Elements’ Theory and Japanese Prints.
