Perhaps slightly off topic but I found this discussion about The Ballad of Narayama from the 80s on CUNY’s Cinema Then Cinema Now.  I think there are a few other Japanese discussed in the series and available at the Internet Archive site.

Former Pacific Film Archive director Sheldon Renan was heavily involved, too.  Films like Twenty-Four Eyes, Ugetsu, Night Drum, Boy, Double Suicide, Early Summer, were part of the series.  Donald Richie was a frequent guest; Mifune Toshiro was interviewed after the showing of Sanjuro (I think it was).  I think it was called The Japanese Film.  Anyone able to confirm the year and the title?  Thanks!
