TORCH SONG

[Stephen Cremin]

Quick question.  Am I right in thinking that the official English title for
the new Yukisada Isao film is TORCH SONG?  Japanese title is "Zeitaku na
hone".  As far as I know his first film OPEN HOUSE is still unreleased.  His
second film, "Himawari" was released as SUNFLOWER last July, followed a few
months later by "Tojiru hi" released as ENCLOSED PAIN.  His fifth film GO
should be out next month.  Let me know if this production order is off; I'm
a little bit confused with this guy.  Gosh, he's getting almost as prolific
as Miike, Kurosawa and Sabu.

PS: If anyone has contact details for Aso Kumiko who's studying in London,
do let me know at some point ... off the list.
