Sorry for a trivial post. I'm trying to locate a Mizoguchi film with a long
take that shows the Japanese architecture. Mizoguchi's long takes are, very
conventionally, said to have been made possible partly due to the Japanese
architectural style - the Japanese traditional house is an open space
divided by shoji, enabling the characters and the camera to move freely in
and out of the house. Could anyone provide a perfect example off hand? I
have only 48 hours to work on this... Thanks so much.
