[KineJapan] Film location for Ozu's 1959 version of 'Floating Weeds' ('Ukikusa') ...

[Lorenzo Javier Torres Hortelano]

Hi Dave,

Maybe you can ask to this researcher at Tokyo University who wrote his
dissertation on Ozu's silent movies: Yuki TAKINAMI, takinami@
iii.u-tokyo.ac.jp

I'm aware he is a specialist in that movie as we had an interesting debate
about it last year in Tokyo.

You can tell him my name.

Best,
