[KineJapan] J-FLICKS on NHK World

[Rob Schwartz]

Thanks Bruce.

We hope to help popularize Japanese cinema though I wouldn't call JFlicks
'academically rigorous'.

If list members can help spread the word that would be much appreciated.

Also, I'd be interested to know if anyone knows of any other TV show in
English dedicated solely to Japanese film.

Thanks,
Rob Schwartz
