I just wanted to mention that my translation of Aoyama Shinji’s “Nouvelle Vague Manifesto” is finally out. Adrian Martin had long expressed interest in publishing it and it now appears in the 6th issue of LOLA, the film journal Adrian edits with Girish Shambu. I penned a short introduction to the piece.

I have long used this manifesto in my writings and in my classes as an important expression of not only Aoyama's theory of cinema, but also the politics of style in 1990s Japanese film. 

I do apologize for the length of time it took for it to come out. Much of it was my fault (too busy!), but it took a bit of digging to find the sources of the many quotes Aoyama uses in the manifesto.
