Ah, yes, I would add Yamasaki-san to that list. He actually started out in
Nichidai's Eiken, so his first film was Bowl with Adachi Masao and company.
Last night I found out what his latest film is: a documentary on Hand
Susumu, which he has been shooting for three years.

Hani, who is going strong at a few months away from 90 years of age,
appeared at a screening of Nanami last night—organized by Roland, Alex Z,
and Hirasawa Go.
