A colleague working on the Occupation has come across references in Yukiko Koshiro's recent book to several films that appear to have been filmed at least in part in Japan between 1950 and 1952.  One,  Japanese War Bride,  has been mentioned recently on the list,  but I'm wondering if anyone has come across any of these others as well:

Tokyo File 212,  1951.
Forever (Itsu-itsu made mo),  1952.
Eyes of the Two Girls (Futari no hitomi), 1952.

Each received some coverage in Kinema Junpo when released,  but are there other sources that provide more extensive criticism and/or commentary on these works?  

Thanks very much.
