      Hello!

      I've heard that on Kimema Club recently there have been posts 
on the best Japanese films of the 80s 
and 90s. Well, many of my favorite Japanese films and their 
filmmakers came from the 60s and 70s. The 
70s, at least in the West,are often considered a low point in 
Japanese cinema, but for me, some of the 
most fresh and stunning work came out of Japanese cinema in the 70s. 

      Here are my 20 favorites (in no order): In The Realm Of The 
Senses (Oshima Nagisa,'76); Vengence Is 
Mine (Imamura Shohei,'79); Twisted Path Of Love (Kumashiro Tatsumi,
'73); Edogawa Rampo Theater: The 
Stroller In The Attic (Tanaka Noboru,'76); Scandalous Adventures Of 
Burikan (Shinoda,'70), Throw Away 
Your Books Let's Go Out In The Street! (Terayama Shuji,'71); Lone 
Wolf & Cub episodes #1,2,3 and 5 
(Misumi Kenji, '72-73); Pastoral Hide-And-Seek (Terayama Shuji,'74); 
Death Of Honor (Fukasaku Kinji,'76); 
Violent Streets (Gosha Hideo,'74); Hana To Hebi (Konuma Masaru,'74); 
August:Wet Sand (Fujita 
Toshiya,'71); Third (Higashi Yoishi,'78); House (Obayashi Nobuhiko,
'77); Erotic Sisters (Sone Chusei,'73); 
Ah! Flower Cheerleaders (Sone Chusei,'76); Sex Hunter:Wet Target 
(Sawada Yukihiro,'72); World Of 
Geisha 1 (Kumashiro Tatsumi,'74); Play (Masumura Yasuzo,'70) and My 
Sister (Fujita Toshiya,'74).
     Well, those are my favorites from the 1970s. I'd be very 
interested to see what others' top 10 or 20 etc. 
Japanese films of the 70s are. Please contribute your top 10/20 
Japanese favorites from the 1970s!
