Alan,

Here is the information you asked about, sorry for the delay.

"Shohei Imamura", edited by James Quandt, Cinematheque Ontario Monographs
No. 1,  Toronto International Film Festival Group, 2 Carlton Street, Suite
1600, Toronto, Ontario M5B 1J3 Canada.  ISBN 0-9682969-0-4 

There are 183 pages with excellent photographs and filmography and it cost
only $5 at the Museum theatre.  There are about 18 essays including 2 by
Imamura, Dennis Ritchie and many others.  There is a short essay on Unagi
although it was not shown, at least not in Boston.  Most of his films were
shown.  Sorry I mistakenly said Quebec, but it started in  Toronto last
November,  just finished in New York and the schedule says it will be in
Chicago in June.  That is where you're from isn't it?  The book is nicely
done, better than the newspaper like publication that accompanied the
Mizoguchi retrospective last year, clearer stills at any rate.  I think
Mizoguchi was sponsored by the same group.  Hope this is adequate info.  

Best regards,
Bill Glenn
