Bordwell on Ozu's "Late Spring" query

[Kerim Yasar]

You're right, it is Kakitsubata, as I discovered while translating the subtitles for the Criterion DVD. I forget now exactly how I ascertained that, but as I recall it was quite a simple feat--I think it may have even been spelled out in the shooting script. Either that or I used Google, which makes solving these riddles infinitely easier than in the past.

  1988: 310). It’s too long to argue here, but I prove in my book about Banshun* that the Noh play is really Kakitsubata (you can find this play edited: BRAZELL, Karen (1988): Twelve Plays of the Noh and Kyōgen Theathers, Ithaca, New York: Cornell University East Asia Papers, [1990]).

      Is there any possibility of setting up a sort of "open source" corrections list.  In other words, could readers flag possible errors -- and then have Prof. Bordwell decide whether to add corrections to some unified list?
 
 The thought of having nicer pictures is great -- though I will continue to cherish my well-worn hardcopy edition.  One of the best $30 I ever spent...

 I wonder if Bordwell will be able to eventually fix typos of this sort in the online version of the book?
  
   
    Unfortunately, it's impossible without typsetting the entire ms again. There are a few errors like this, but so far I haven't caught any that significantly affect the argument, as some of the errors in Burch's book do. 
  
     
  
    I should add that the online version snuck out long before we were ready. It's "official" launch will be in late summer or September. We are replacing all the images with new scans from David's negatives, along with color images from the DVDs. Our mock-ups are absolutely beautiful, and there will be ways to closely analyze the photographs. David will also be adding a new introduction.
  
     
  
    When it's ready, you'll be the first to know.
