[KineJapan] Kinema Junpo Best

[Gerow Aaron]

Kinema Junpo announced their awards for 2022. In recent years, they have only been publicly announcing the individual and picture awards, so as to make people buy the magazine in order to find out all the films in KineJun’s famous Best Ten.

Here are some of the awards:

Best picture: Small, Slow but Steady
Best documentary: Watashi no hanashi, buraku no hanashi
Best actress: Kishii Yukino
Best actor: Sawada Kenji
Best supporting actress: Hirosue Ryoko
Best supporting actor: Miura Tomokazu
Best director: Takahashi Banmei
Best screenplay: Kajiwara Aki

It seems Small, Slow but Steady (Miyake Sho) is getting most of the best picture awards for 2022. (Though the Japan Academy Prize ignored it for Best Picture, because that’s the nature of those awards, shaped as they are by the major studios.)
