[KineJapan] Possible demise of Eiga Geijutsu

[Gerow Aaron]

The Mainichi ran an article on the possible demise of Eiga Geijutsu:

Eiga Geijutsu (Film Art) is a film magazine that was founded in 1946. Having written for them many times (including choosing the yearly best ten for many years), I know the good and the bad points about Eigei, but with there being very few places to write critical accounts of film these days, it would be sorely missed if it disappeared. But it is losing money with every issue (Terawaki Ken said on Facebook it’s in the red about 500,000 yen per issue).
