Yoshida etc

[Peter Larson]

In 1998 I went to an all night Wakamatsu showing in Osaka. Although it 
was great to see Wakamatsu speak and hold a question and answer session, 
the all night showing was a bit much. I was fading fast at the 6th film 
at 3:30 in the morning. Wakamatsu himself of course left early on.

It's great that all these retrospectives are running, the trouble is 
always that it's not always physically possible to go to all of them!

I am rambling...

 There are way too many retrospectives to keep track of.
