> Some of you may have heard the news via other means, but the family of Scott Nygren has announced his passing after a long battle with cancer. Scott was a professor at the University of Florida and a central figure in film studies with a particular interest in Japanese cinema. His book, Time Frames: Japanese Cinema and the Unfolding of History (University of Minnesota Press, 2007), is his most famous contribution in our field, although he also penned many other important articles about the film and culture of Japan. His wife, Maureen Turim, also a professor at Florida, is the author of The Films of Oshima: Images of a Japanese Iconoclast (Berkeley: University of California Press), and the two of them were together an important force in the development of academic studies of Japanese film. I personally received much encouragement and inspiration from Scott and Maureen and deeply mourn his passing. My condolences go out to Maureen and the rest of their family.
