Kurosawa Kiyoshi / scripts

[Mark Nornes]

Furthermore, they are often only simple distillations of the dialogue. 
Don't count on getting preproduction versions of scenarios from the 
scenarios magazines or Kinejun, either. This is always a problem. Our 
department library has an emphasis on scripts, and we're buying 
thousands of scenarios from LA. Does anyone know if there are comparable 
sources for production scenarios in Japan? I have one for Ran sitting on 
my shelf, but it was a present from someone on the inside. Jinbocho 
seems to have television scripts, but not film...
