Japan 1946. Der Krieg ist vorbei. Der Filmemacher Keisuke Kinoshita kann jetzt einen Film machen, frei von japanischer Regierungspropaganda – aber nicht ganz frei von der US-amerikanischen Propaganda, wenn auch nur für eine Minute, wie sich herausstellt. MORNING FOR THE OSONE FAMILY erzählt die Geschichte einer liberalen, westlich-orientierten, gebildeten Familie, die in den Kriegsjahren mit pazifistischen Überzeugungen aneckt. Einer der Brüder ist Journalist und geht ins Gefängnis, die anderen Brüder werden eingezogen, der jüngste meldet sich freiwillig. Als nur noch die Witwe und die Tochter des Hausherrn übrig geblieben sind, kommt der Schwager – ein Oberst aus der Etappe und setzt sich wie ein Parasit in das Haus der Familie Osone. Nach der Kapitulation wird aus dem Kriegstreiber ein Krieggewinnler – als er für den Schwarzmarkt Militärvorräte stiehlt und hortet, wehren sich die Frauen …Wieder nimmt Kinoshita die Frauen in den Fokus. Lange erdulden sie ihr Schicksal, auch die Tochter, deren Liebesheirat nicht stattfinden kann, weil sie als Bruder eines politischen Dissidenten nicht mehr standesgemäß ist. In der Podcastepisode beobachten Micha und Thomas wieder, wie der „Kamera-Regisseur“ Kinoshita seine Frames und Perspektiven setzt und sich ganz auf das Haus als Handlungsort konzentriert. Einer der Höhepunkte im Film ist der Aufstand der Frauen mit einer großartige Rede der Mutter, die dem Kriegsgewinnler die Leviten liest. Um den Bösen als solchen vorzuführen, lässt Kinoshita ihn vor der Kamera sein mehr als üppiges Mahl verschlingen, während draußen die Menschen hungern. Die Frauen der Osone-Familie behalten ihre Würde und ihre Ehre und lehnen das unehrenhafte Essen ab. Das „amerikanische Ende“ ist ebenfalls Thema. MORNING FOR THE OSONE FAMILY ist der fünfte Film von Keisuke Kinoshita. Die nächste Folge erscheint am 27. März 2022.Dieser Film ist erhältlich als Teil der Box „Kinoshita and World War II“, Eclipse Series 41 from the Criterion CollectionMichaels sehr empfehlenswerten Blog Schneeland findet Ihr hier.

Zurecht ist ARMY (Rikugun) für sein großartiges, aufwühlendes Finale bekannt, aber worum geht es eigentlich in Keisuke Kinoshitas Kriegsfilm aus dem Jahr 1944? Der Film erzählt eine Dreigenerationengeschichte – von 1866 in der Meji-Ära bis zur damaligen Gegenwart 1944. Zu Beginn wird der Familie ein Prachtband der „Geschichte des Großen Japan“ von einem Soldaten geschenkt – dieses Buch steht natürlich für die große Nation und wird über die Generationen in höchsten Ehren gehalten. Schließlich stehen Tomohiko und seine Frau Waka im Mittelpunkt – und ihr Sohn Shintaro. Groß ist die Angst, dass der schwächliche, aber kluge und hilfsbereite Sohn nicht das Zeug zum richtigen Soldaten hat. Tomohiko selbst war in seiner Jugend als Soldat nie an der Front, sondern immer mit Fieber im Lazarett. Am Ende ist aber aus Tomohikos Sohn Shintaro ein ganzer Mann geworden und er zieht als Teil der Rikugun (Armee) in den Krieg.Michael und Thomas staunen über die Bedeutung des gottgleichen Kaisers und beobachten, dass Kinoshita mitten im Krieg in seinem Film einen Diskurs beschreibt, was echter Patriotismus sei und was geschehen wäre, wenn Japan das Kriegsglück verlassen hätte – zum Beispiel im Kampf gegen die Mongolen. Protagonisten dieses Streits sind ein Unternehmer, der eine patriotische Schule gründet und finanziert und Tomohiko, der dort als Lehrer angestellt ist. Aber Tomohiko ist niemand patriotisch genug, auch nicht der eigene Sohn, dem es nicht gelingt, direkt nach der Ausbildung sofort an die Front versetzt zu werden.Besonders beeindruckt sind Michael und Thomas vom Finale, in dem sich die Mutter Waka doch noch in letzter Minute aufmacht, um sich von Sohn Shintaro zu verabschieden. Was eine kleine harmlose Szene hätte sein können, wird durch Kinoshitas Regie und Taketomis beeindruckende nahe und bewegliche Kamera zu einem mitreißenden Drama, das ohne Worte, die Liebe der Mutter und die verzweifelte Angst, das eigene Kind auf dem Schlachtfeld zu verlieren, zeigt. Ganz großes Kino und ein oft übersehenes Stück Filmgeschichte. Die staatliche Filmaufsicht reagierte erbost. Oberflächlich erfüllt der Film zwar die Vorgaben der Behörde, aber am Ende wird offensichtlich, dass er die Liebe über den Krieg stellt. Kinoshita durfte vor der Kapitulation Japans keine Filme mehr drehen.ErgänzungUnser Hörer Christoph hat uns auf ein wichtiges Detail aufmerksam gemacht: "Ungefähr in der Hälfte des Podcasts geht es um den jungen Tomohiko, der aus dem Zugfenster schaut. Angeblich lässt uns Kinoshita absichtlich im Unklaren, was genau er vom Zug aus betrachtet. Aber kurz bevor er das Fenster öffnet, erkannt man - zwar nur schemenhaft, aber doch eindeutig - den schneebedeckten Gipfel des Fuji als Spiegelung in der Scheibe. Somit erklärt sich auch der erst überraschte, dann freudige und schließlich ehrfürchtige Blick des Jungen, der dieses heilige Symbol der Japaner gerade zum ersten Mal aus der Nähe erblickt. Folglich könnte man mutmaßen, dass ihm dieser Moment weitaus wichtiger erscheint, als den Kaiserpalast in Tokyo zu besuchen." Vielen Dank für diesen Hinweis - das erklärt den Blick und das Handeln Tomohikos!Dieser Film ist erhältlich als Teil der Box „Kinoshita and World War II“, Eclipse Series 41 from the Criterion CollectionMichaels sehr empfehlenswerten Blog Schneeland findet Ihr hier.

Hosts Rosalie Lewis, a writer for FThisMovie.com, and Tim Rosenberger -- a 25 Years Later film writer, a blogger, and YouTuber -- travel to Japan to discuss three early silents from famed Japanese writer and director Yasujirō Ozu. While Ozu would become known for his films examining familiar relationships and dynamics in post-war Japan, his early films were of different genres, such as crime. He still made films like dramadies that were closer to the work he would become known for in later years. Tim and Rosalie touch on Walk Cheerfully (1930) and That Night's Wife (1930) from the Criterion Collection's Eclipse Series 42: Silent Ozu—Three Crime Dramas and Tokyo Chorus (1931) from Criterion's Eclipse Series 10: Silent Ozu—Three Family Comedies. All three films are also available on The Criterion Channel.

Tokyo 1944: Die Regierung lässt eine Straße in der Stadt räumen – für militärische Zwecke. Keiner der Bewohner der Jubilation Street stellt diese Anordnung in Frage. Aber fast alle haben ihre Probleme damit, ihre Wurzeln zu kappen und ein neues Leben anzufangen. Da ist der Besitzer einer kleinen Druckerei, der sich nach dem letzten Auftrag mit einem Ritual von seiner Maschine verabschiedet, da ist der Vater und Ehemann, der nach langer Zeit in China ausgerechnet jetzt nach Hause kommt, da ist der junge Pilot, der sich verliebt, der aber nicht die die Ansprüche der Eltern der Geliebten erfüllt, da ist der Betreiber eines öffentlichen Badehauses, der darauf besteht, das Badehaus solange offen zu halten, wie noch ein Mensch in dieser Straße seine Dienste in Anspruch nimmt. Am Ende fügen sie sich alle in das Unvermeidliche. Dieser Film ist erhältlich als Teil der Box „Kinoshita and World War II“, Eclipse Series 41 from the Criterion Collection JUBILATION STREET ist der dritte Film, den sich Michael und Thomas von Keisuke Kinoshita anschauen – im Rahmen der Kinoshita-Reihe, in der sie versuchen alle seine Filme zu schauen. Die Reihe wird sie noch einige Zeit beschäftigen und auf beiden Blogs – Schneeland und SchönerDenken – erscheinen. In dieser Episode (die im Rahmen des #Japanuary2021 aufgenommen wurde) sprechen die beiden über Sentos und Onzen, also die japanische Badekultur, über Perspektiven und Kameraarbeit, über verlorene Schuhe, über Heimatfront und Propaganda-Elemente, die eine kleinere Rolle spielen als in einem Film in Japan 1944 zu erwarten war. Wir bitten die Tonqualität zu entschuldigen, eines der beiden Mikrofone hat seinen Dienst nicht getan.

My guest for this month is Jessie Char, and she’s joined me to discuss the film I chose for her, the 1929 Pre-Code musical comedy The Love Parade. You can follow the show on Twitter @cinemagadfly. Show notes: Ernst Lubitsch was nominated for three Academy Awards, including for this film Maurice Chevalier was a very, very French man The queen was played by the very talented Jeanette MacDonald The Listicle is an article format that allows for quick writing, often without much thought The song that Jessie describes as being an adult version of Once Upon a Dream from Sleeping Beauty is called Dream Lover The Hays Code made it impossible to make a film as irreverent about adult themes as this one The song where they’re signing goodbye to Paris is called Paris, Stay the Same Unlike, say, The Sixth Sense, this movie can’t really be spoiled It cannot be overstated, that this film has virtually nothing in common with the Larry Clark film Kids. Except in the way that it does The song about being common is called Let’s Be Common If only Maurice Chevalier could have had an iPad and the Internet Harrison Ford as Han Solo says and does some things that would come off as super creepy if done by almost anyone else Bill Hader could have done a phenomenal Maurice Chevalier impression on Saturday Night Live Lupino Lane, who plays Chevalier’s French servant, was in fact a very British man Perhaps this film isn’t a strong example of Second-wave feminism On the other hand, maybe it is an example of Third-wave feminism Maurice Chevalier was born in 1888, which means he’d be 127 today The iPhone 6S Plus shoots native 4K video, which is capable of fully reproducing the quality of 35MM film Jessie’s website is a website This film is really only available as part of the Eclipse Series 8: Lubitsch Musicals set from Criterion, which you can also buy from Amazon

David and Trevor discuss the newest addition to the Eclipse Series, five films that launched the career of a great, but under-appreciated, Japanese filmmaker.
On a rainy day in Seoul's Garosu-gil, Colin talks with Marc Raymond, film scholar, teacher at Kangwoon University, and author of Hollywood's New Yorker: The Making of Martin Scorsese. They discuss how much you can learn about Korean life from Hong Sangsoo movies; what Hong has in common with Martin Scorsese; how the two directors relate differently to their "outsider" status; the international code Hong seems to have cracked, and why the rest of Korea covets that; Hong's probable place in the Criterion Collection (or at least the Eclipse Series); how, exactly, he would describe what a Hong Sangsoo film is; the rarity of the intersection between talky relationship cinema and formally experimental cinema; the importance of drinking, smoking, and improvisation in not just Hong's method but in Korean culture itself; how he first discovered Hong, and how he discovered Scorsese shared his enthusiasm; how Hong illustrates the breakdown of the social rules Korea doesn't expect to break down; why his Korean wife laugh at different moments in the movies than he does; whether straight-up critiques of Korean masculinity have remained central to Hong's work; Hong's less-discussed critique of Korean femininity; whether he finds, given his experience with Korean life, that Hong's criticism of Korean society hit the mark; how Hong's films have become linguistically easier as he has gained larger international audiences; why, between degrees, he came to Korea in the first place; his early impressions of the familial attitude and reliance on authority that penetrated all environments; the reductiveness he dislikes in the scholarship of both Korea and Scorsese; where his native Canada's lack of popular cinema drove him; whether Koreans expect him to exemplify Canadian virtues; the hockey comedy that outgrossed Titanic in Quebec; what it felt like to go from a huge, thinly populated country to a small, thickly populated one where his first apartment complex had more people than his hometown; the importance of a career that allows you to pick and choose where you go and when in a big city; what films, besides Hong's, have helped him integrate into Korean culture, like Oasis and Secret Sunshine; the difference between Korean melodrama and other countries' melodrama; who we can call "the Korean Martin Scorsese"; and whether Canada has, or could use, a Scorsese of its own.
