[KineJapan] English subtitled print of BALLAD OF ORIN?

[Japanese Cinema Discussion Forum via KineJapan]

I'm almost certain that a subtitled 35mm print of THE LOVE SUICIDES OF SONEZAKI is in the Japan Foundation library, somewhere across the world. I also believe that the Japanese Embassy in the UK had a bunch of 16mm subbed prints in their holdings, and this film was included amongst them. I know they've screened it several times over the past few decades. I certainly don't think you'll be able to find a print of any description in Japan.

Hello KineJapan!



We’re having trouble finding where to source an English subtitled print of BALLAD OF ORIN by Shinoda.

It wasn’t that long ago when it was last screened in the US so we think it still exists somewhere…



I’m less optimistic about the following but if you know whereabouts of an English-subtitled print (ideally 35mm) of THE LOVE SUICIDES OF SONEZAKI by Midori Kurisaki… would love to know too.



Would appreciate any tips you may have! Please feel free to contact me off list.



Thank you so much!

Aiko
