Description
This brief and lively book covers the whole of Japanese film history, from the silent period to the present day. In it, Ritchie teaches as much about Japanese cultural obsessions as he does the cinema, showing how significantly the former influenced the unique power of the latter. Here is a candid and revealing view of the medium, written by the Japanese cinema's most important Western critic.
