Ozu scripts

[Gardner, William]

In regard to Ozu scripts-- this subject has come up a couple of times, but I
don't think anyone's mentioned that a translation of the "Tokyo Story"
screenplay is also available in Howard Hibbet, ed., Contemporary Japanese
Literature: An Anthology of Fiction, Film and Other Writing Since 1945 (New
York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1977). Kurosawa's "Ikiru" script is also included.
Unfortunately, this anthology now seems to be out of print, but can probably
still be found in used bookstores or on the net.
