[KineJapan] Suzuki Seijun Screenings and Events

[William Carroll]

Hello everyone,

I mentioned in an email recently that my book on Suzuki Seijun will be
coming out next month. I’ve been speaking with Japan Foundation, and they
have set aside some money to arrange to have some Suzuki films available in
35mm in North America. They will pay international shipping fees for the
following six films, and screening rights for up to 18 screenings total:

Satan’s Town (Akuma no macho, 1956)
Love Letter (Rabu retā, 1959)
Carmen from Kawachi (Kawachi no karumen, 1966)
Tokyo Drifter (Tokyo Nagaremono, 1966)
A Tale of Sorrow and Sadness (Hishū monogatari, 1977)
Kagero-za (1981)

They will be available in the US between October 2022 and March 2023, and
in Canada thereafter.

If you have any interest in booking one or more of these films at your
campus cinema or a nearby cinematheque, please let me know and we can try
to make arrangements. I know I’ve spoken to some of you about this already,
but I wanted to spread the word further in case anyone is interested.

I’m also happy to provide more information about the films, as some of them
are not very well known.

Thanks,
Will
