Hi Mathieu<div><br></div><div>Most of his earlier writings have been reprinted and are available in Kurosawa Akira Complete Works (Zenshu Kurosawa Akira) from Iwanami. They are rather short articles but are very interesting, especially 'Koshitara yoi eiga ga dekiru (This Is How We Can Make Good Films)' and 'Eiga ni ikiru (To Live for Film)'. The former article was first published in 1950 and the latter was first published in Geijutsu Shincho in 1952; both are reprinted in Complete Works Volume 2. These two might be very close to a 'statement' as cinema director.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Another book which might be of interest is: Yume wa tensai dearu (Dreams Are Genuises), published posthumously in 1999. This book contains his interviews as well as 'taidan' talks with Yoji Yamada and Hisashi Inoue. </div>

Subject: Kurosawa<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br><br>Dear Kinejapaners,<br><br>I have been trying these days to find some paper/article/text written by Kurosawa Akira, that could stand as a statement as cinema director, etc. Something more on the autobiographical side would be welcome as well, aside from his famous "something like an autobiography"... or maybe something that would start where the last one ends...anyway, I have been searching in all my "eigaron taikei" and other anthologies, books, etc. I took a look in the Kurosawa internet archives, where I could find a "hôdan 放談" which looks rather interesting, but seems to be too long for the kind of review it aims at... Could someone point me some paper out, or tell me where I am likely to find some ? <br>
