Hashimoto is speaking of the script itself as a means of communication to
produce films in an era of dialogue, whereas Eisenstein’s script, in за кадром,
is the expression of the film itself in a silent era. Eisenstein spoke of kanji
combinations as a metaphor to embrace whereas Hashimoto means it literally, as
something to avoid. But they seem to have spun around the same pole.</span></p>

Rashomon and The Severn Samurai, died on the 19th at the age of 100.
Hashimoto learned screenwriting under Itami Mansaku, and wrote the first
draft of an adaptation of Akutagawa's In a Grove on his own while
working as a salaryman. The screenplay, ending up in the hands of
Kurosawa, was rewritten and made as Rashomon. Hashimoto became part of
Kurosawa's screenwriting team and participated in writing such films <span class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841text_exposed_show">as
Ikiru, Seven Samurai, Throne of Blood, and Hidden Fortress. He wrote
scripts for many other great directors, including Kobayashi Masaki
(Harakiri, Samurai Rebellion), Okamoto Kihachi (Sword of Doom), Nomura
Yoshitaro (Castle of Sand), Naruse Mikio, Gosha Hideo, Yamamoto Satsuo,
etc. For TV, his Watashi wa kai ni naritai is one of the monumental TV
dramas of Japanese TV history--a script he later adapted for film under
his own direction.</span><div class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841"><span class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841text_exposed_show"><br class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841"></span></div><div class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841"><span class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841text_exposed_show"><a href="https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASL7L6T15L7LUCLV022.html" class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.asahi.com/articles/ASL7L6T15L7LUCLV022.html</a></span></div><br class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841"><br class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841"><div class="ydp5ae8b730yiv8981580841">
