Reviews

“In this highly original and richly illustrated work, Daisuke Miyao examines the work of master filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu from fresh perspectives. Ozu’s use of color and camera movement are discussed more thoroughly than ever before. Miyao reveals how Ozu films emerged from Japanese society as only a critic deeply knowledgeable of both that culture and the international influences of film history could manage.”—Tom Gunning, author of, The Attractions of the Moving Image: Essays on History, Theory, and the Avant-Garde
