[KineJapan] Bowing before Eastwood

[Japanese Cinema Discussion Forum via KineJapan]

 Nice Hadfield article on the critical fawning for Clint Eastwood on Japan.
I once had a conversation with Funahashi-san about American Sniper that
devolved into an argument where neither of us could understand the other or
care to budge. Since then I studiously avoid the subject. I can’t say
Hadfield has cracked the Clint Code—-unless I is, indeed, Hasumi’s fault—-
but it’s an entertaining read.
