Kimiko Takeda
An in-depth look at the life and aesthetics of Yasujiro Ozu, a directors’ director, based on the analyses of 60 remarks from Ozu‘s interviews and screenplays, authored by Shinnosuke Kometani and translated by Kimiko Takeda.
Ozu’s seminal work, Tokyo Story, was voted the greatest film of all time, beating 2001: A Space Odyssey and Citizen Kane, by a poll of 358 directors for Sight & Sound, the world-renowned film magazine, in 2012.
Interspersed with anecdotes and analyses on Ozu’s unique cinematic style and creative process, this book is a rare gem that examines Ozu through the words that he left behind. A must-listen for all film aficionados and fans of Japanese culture.
