<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Dear KineJapaners,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>First, the correction:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>A few months back, I recall answering to a question on
German-Japanese collaborations about Riefenstahl's 'Olympia' and saying
something to the effect that the four-year delay would be incomprehensible
today. I've just stumbled on the fact that the 2006 UK film 'Amazing
Grace' is currently on release in Japan and is being heavily advertised.
In my defense, the age of the film is not exactly being pushed ...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>My question is - and I'm sure this has been asked before,
but I can't locate it - I'll write it into the index of my 'Research Guide' this
time - is what is an accessible resource for the release dates of foreign films
into Japan. The period I'm interested in right now is some UK films of the
50s. For later periods, there's runs in the UK of Kinema Junpo, but is
there any volume I could acquire which would hold this information please
?</FONT></DIV>
