where to find the japanese magazine?

[Tom Mes]

According to the magazine's website ( http://www.japan-mag.com ), it's sold 
the world over at such major chains like WH Smith's. However there is no 
mention of France. You could try the WH Smith's at Rue de Rivoli in Paris 
and if they don't have it in stock, you can probably order it through them.

The full name of the magazine is 'JAPAN people-power-opinion'. Publisher is 
Hotei Publishing in Leiden, The Netherlands. ISBN 1569-2043

Best,
Tom

>>Here's some links to articles on a supposed renaissance of Asian films at
>>the local box office.  Interesting that "Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro no
>>Kamikakushi)" is the only example brought up regarding Japan to support 
>>the
>>article's supposition.  Unfortunately, it looks rather paltry compared to
>>the long list of local hits made in Korea, Hong Kong and Thailand...

>>Also, since noone seems to have mentioned it yet, there's an article by
>>Mark Schilling offering a round-up of Yakuza cinema in the new "Japan"
>>magazine, published in Holland (in English) and available internationally.
>>An interesting read.

>>Again, Roland comes in with the informative answer.  I second his opinion
>>that Kimura is worthy of more study, if only in terms of the problem of
>>"tenko" in the film industry, and the attraction Man'ei and Manchuria
>>held for the left (as in the case of Uchida and Iwasaki Akira).
>>
>>Just to add a bit from a personal note:
>>
>>First, two of Kimura's prewar films are generally available in video in
>>Japan: the 1933 Horoyoi jinsei, a wonderful example of early sound, P.C.L
>>modernism, the relation between cinema and commerce (the film was
>>sponsored by a beer company), and the "musical" genre; and the 1936 Ani
>>imoto, which I think is a more interesting adaption of the Muro Saisei
>>novel than Naruse's 1953 version.
>>
>>Second, given the Kimura family's collosal filial productivity, it is not
>>suprising that some of Sotoji's siblings (not all with the same mother)
>>also became famous. Kimura Sota was a novelist who was involved with
>>Osugi Sakae, Tsuji Jun, and other anarchist modernists, and worked on
>>creating an actual anarchist rural community in the model of Kropotkin.
>>Kimura Akebono was an important early woman novelist. Kimura Shohachi was
>>a famous Western style painter and illustrator.  And Kimura Soju was a
>>popular novelist who won the Naoki Prize in 1941.  There are likely some
>>more, but that's probably enough.  It would be interesting just to
>>investigate this family sometime.
