Ozu International: Essays on the Global Influences of a Japanese Auteur by Wayne Stein, Marc Dipaolo (Editors)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3 MB
Overview: In Japan and much of Europe, Ozu is widely considered to be one of the finest film directors who ever lived. While Ozu has a strong reputation in the West, his films are not as well-known or widely appreciated in the U.S. as they are elsewhere. A notable exception to this trend is film critic Roger Ebert, who recently wrote that Ozu is one of his †œthree or four†? favorite directors. Also, moving beyond the view that Tokyo Story is a masterful exception in the Ozu canon, Ebert sees Ozu’s films as †œnearly always of the same high quality.†? Ozu International will reflect on Ebert’s view of Ozu by arguing that this director deserves broader recognition in the U.S., and that his entire canon is worthy of serious study.
