Shohei Imamura (Cinematheque Ontario Monographs)

Shohei Imamura is among the most important artists of postwar Japanese cinema. Best known in the west for his award-winning "The Ballad of Narayama," Imamura has produced a body of work that is unequalled for its tumultuous energy and formal daring. A dozen essays by such eminent authorities of Japanese cinema as Donald Richie, Max Tessier and Audie Bock are supplemented by interviews with and articles by Imamura, which explore his influences, themes and working methods. Published by Cinematheque Ontario. Distributed in Canada by Wilfrid Laurier University Press. Distributed outside Canada by Indiana University Press.
