[Mark Nornes]

As Aaron pointed out, the first part of Makino Mamoru's new reprint 
series has come out. The Nihon Eigaron Gensetsu Taikei reprints classic 
and/or important books from the first half of Japanese film history. 
Makino would probably give me a good whap for saying this, but a few of 
these books can readily be found in the furuhonya for considerably less 
than the 120,000 yen price tag of each volume. However, quite a few of 
the books are very difficult to find (even in libraries), and a couple 
(Diet proceedings on censorship, film industry policy in occupied 
Korea, etc.) are precious. Even if you have the originals books, each 
one starts with often excellent kaisetsu by people like Hatano Tetsuro, 
Makino Mamoru, Murayama Kyoichiro, and Aaron Gerow. This kind of 
context is always great to have going into a read.

Two more sets of this series are in the works...
