Hatano-sensei was an important figure in post 1960s film studies in Japan. He was one of the editors of the very influential journal Shinema 69 (later Shinema 70, etc.), which set the tone for film criticism of the 80s and 90s. He was a core member of the team that created Gendai Nihon eigaron takei (1970-72), still the best collection of postwar film criticism and theory. Later, he teamed with Iwamoto Kenji to produce Eiga riron shusei (1982), an important anthology of foreign and Japanese film theory. His other books include Eiga kantoku ni naru ni wa (1993) and translations of works such as Sheldon Renan?s An Introduction to Underground Film, and Jon Halliday?s interviews with Pasolini. He was also a filmmaker, most known for shooting his 16000 kilometer motorcycle trek across Eurasia, and was an emeritus professor at Tokyo Zokei University. I knew him through the Japan Society of Image Arts and Sciences, for which he served as president, and he helped me a lot with my article on the history of Japanese film criticism. I was most happy when he praised the piece I wrote. ????????????? > 2020/10/03 ??7:39?Schermann Susanne via KineJapan ????: > > The film researcher Hatano Tetsuro ????? passed away on October 2nd, aged 84. > The wake and funeral will be held on October 5th and 6th, respectively, family only, but you can send flowers. > > Fax 03-5491-5195(???) > Tel 0120-94-8341????? > > Best from Tokyo, > Susanne > _______________________________________________ > KineJapan mailing list > KineJapan at mailman.yale.edu > https://mailman.yale.edu/mailman/listinfo/kinejapan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hanano-sensei was one of those scholars who you'd bump into all over the place. I remember the first time we met, at my first year working for the Yamagata festival. He came to many of the sessions for Nichibei Eigasen, and immediately struck me as someone who knew an awful lot. That was before I knew anything about him. He went to every Yamagata. I'd find him at bonenkai and art openings and film events of every stripe. I loved his smile and soft demeanor as he chatted about the latest film encounters. He was always interested and interesting. Not long ago I told him I hoped to sit down and learn everything about *Cinema 69* and *70*. I'm so sad I didn't have the chance.

The Japan Foundation, New York organizes an annual film series during which Japanese films are screened at educational and cultural institutions across the United States. The goal of the series is for those curious about or interested in Japan to have the opportunity to learn more about Japanese culture and society through film. Up until now, we used to rent out physical copies of the films in DVD or Blu-ray format to the various institutions which were then rotated around with the other participating institutions. However, due to COVID-19, we decided it was best to hold the film festival online for safety purposes this year. Our online film festival will be titled JFF Plus and will be held from December 4 to 13. We have over 20 different Japanese films ranging from dramas, animation, documentaries and the best part is this will be all available to stream for free. Please stay tuned and keep checking back on the JFF Plus website to register and for the lineup reveal in early November. We understand that colleges may not be in session, but we would greatly appreciate it if you could help us promote this festival to students who are interested in Japan and Japanese culture. We are also looking for guests who would like to hold lecture events using this online film festival. If you are interested, please contact INOUE Shun, Associate Program Officer, atshun_inoue at jfny.org. We look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, The Japan Foundation, New York -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I accredited as press, they urged to to accredit, and I wonder why, as I cannot find any way to attend online anything. It was different for Busan, as they had online access to many films.
