<div dir="ltr">I was saddened to hear this news. Hanano-sensei was one of those scholars who you'd bump into all over the place. I remember the first time we met, at my first year working for the Yamagata festival. He came to many of the sessions for Nichibei Eigasen, and immediately struck me as someone who knew an awful lot. That was before I knew anything about him. He went to every Yamagata. I'd find him at bonenkai and art openings and film events of every stripe. I loved his smile and soft demeanor as he chatted about the latest film encounters. He was always interested and interesting. Not long ago I told him I hoped to sit down and learn everything about <i>Cinema 69</i> and <i>70</i>. I'm so sad I didn't have the chance. <div><br></div><div>Markus</div><div><br></div><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(136,136,136)">--- </span></div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:small"><font face="courier new, monospace" color="#274e13"><b><img src="https://drive.google.com/a/umich.edu/uc?id=1i0izwlsrcSvQgU4nMCzTLiOhmdDMm-xZ&export=download" width="56" height="96"><br></b></font></div><div style="font-size:small"><font face="courier new, monospace" color="#274e13"><b>Markus Nornes</b></font></div><div style="font-size:small"><span style="font-family:"courier new",monospace"><font color="#38761d"><b>Professor of Asian Cinema</b></font></span></div><div><font size="1" color="#38761d"><font face="courier new, monospace">Department of Film, Television and Media</font><span style="font-family:"courier new",monospace">, Department of Asian Languages and Cultures, Penny Stamps </span><span style="font-family:"courier new",monospace">School of Art & Design</span></font></div><div style="color:rgb(136,136,136);font-size:small"><font face="courier new, monospace" color="#6aa84f"><br></font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1" color="#93c47d"><b>Department of Film, Television and Media</b></font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1" color="#93c47d"><b>6348 North Quad</b></font></div><div><font face="courier new, monospace" size="1" color="#93c47d"><b>105 S.

Hatano-sensei was an important figure in post 1960s film studies in Japan. He was one of the editors of the very influential journal <i>Shinema 69</i> (later <i>Shinema 70</i>, etc.), which set the tone for film criticism of the 80s and 90s. He was a core member of the team that created <i>Gendai Nihon eigaron takei </i>(1970-72), still the best collection of postwar film criticism and theory. Later, he teamed with Iwamoto Kenji to produce <i>Eiga riron shusei </i>(1982), an important anthology of foreign and Japanese film theory. His other books include <i>Eiga kantoku ni naru ni w</i>a (1993) and translations of works such as Sheldon Renan’s <i>An Introduction to Underground Film</i>, and Jon Halliday’s interviews with Pasolini. He was also a filmmaker, most known for shooting his 16000 kilometer motorcycle trek across Eurasia, and was an emeritus professor at Tokyo Zokei University. I knew him through the Japan Society of Image Arts and Sciences, for which he served as president, and he helped me a lot with my article on the history of Japanese film criticism. I was most happy when he praised the piece I wrote. <div><br></div><div>ご冥福をお祈りいたします。<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>2020/10/03 午前7:39、Schermann Susanne via KineJapan <<a href="mailto:kinejapan@mailman.yale.edu" target="_blank">kinejapan@mailman.yale.edu</a>>のメール:</div><br><div><div><div><div><span>The film researcher Hatano Tetsuro </span><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">波多野哲朗 passed away on October 2nd, aged 84.</span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">The wake and funeral will be held on October 5th and 6th, respectively, family only, but you can send flowers.</span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"></span></font><br><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">Fax 03-5491-5195(公益社)</span></font></span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">Tel 0120-94-8341（公益社）<br></span></font></span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><br></span></font></span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">Best from Tokyo,</span></font></span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt">Susanne<br>
