Customer Reviews:
this is not a film scholar's book January 31, 2002 3 out of 27 found this review helpful
Half a year ago, I read its Japanese version of an article written by aaron gerow included in the book, since I am a Japanese. I found the conclusion of the article very unsatisfying and unconvincing, because it abruptly quotes what a famous and young Japanese filmmaker said about a certain relationship between Japanese Emperor and Japanese film, which completely lacks any academic contexts in which we could discuss. Judging from the article by aaron gerow discussing Benshi, this book is nothing less than an arbitrary impression on Japanese cinema.
