Introduction

[Jennifer Ellen Moore]

Hello Kinejapan subscribers:

My name is Jennifer Moore and I am a student at the University of
Michigan.  I am currently enroled in Professor Abe Mark Nornes Film and
Vidoe course, The History of Japanese Cinema.  I am a senior at U-M and
will be graduating this December with a Bachelor of Theatre Arts.  (My
concentration is Performance.)  I was introduced to Japanese film by one
of my former instructors.  My previous experience is limited to Kurosawa
films.  I am a Shakespeare fan, and as such, I am very interested in the
Shakespearian themes in Kurosawa's films.  I look forward to learning more
about Japanese film in both my class and as a member of this mail list.
