Question: Postwar Constitution in Japanese Film

[Jonathan M. Hall]

Dear All,

Bad losers sounds like a good story!

On a similar note, there is also Ted Fowler's article  "Piss and Run:  
How Ozu Does a Number on SCAP."  It's an essay Dennis Washburn and  
Carole Cavanaugh's Word and Image in Japanese Cinema. (2001).

It's an allegorical reading of postwar politics, not the Constitution  
per se.
