Josh and Drusilla discuss the 1962 Japanese film, Pitfall. From wiki: “Pitfall (おとし穴, Otoshiana), a.k.a. The Pitfall and Kashi To Kodomo, is a 1962 Japanese film directed by Hiroshi Teshigahara, written by Kōbō Abe. It was Teshigahara's first feature, and the first of his four film collaborations with Abe, the others being Woman in the Dunes, The Face of Another and The Man Without a Map. Unlike the others, which are based on novels by Abe, Pitfall was originally a television play called Purgatory (Rengoku).[2] The film has been included in The Criterion Collection. It is known for its surreal, often avant-garde storytelling structure and themes of hopelessness, exploitation, and human suffering.Also discussed: Summer Camp Nightmare (1987), In the Spirit (1990), Free to Be You and Me, Sinners, Babylon, and more!NEXT WEEK: Eve's Bayou (1997) Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://twitter.com/BloodhausPodhttps://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/ Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://bsky.app/profile/joshuaconkel.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

Fans often sleep on the late films of Hiroshi Teshigahara, the man who directed Woman in the Dunes and The Face of Another. But, as guest Eric reminds us, Teshigahara's late films are equally as powerful. Rikyu and Basara: The Princess Goh represent a magnificent and unexpected late career peak from the master filmmaker. They are the kinds of masterful films one would expect from a Kurosawa and are startling to watch as delivered by a formalist like Teshigahara. Jason also especially liked the pseudo-documentary Summer Soldiers, a morally ambiguous story about Americans stationed in Japan during the Vietnam War. This obscure film crystallizes everything likes about this director: a constant quest for innovation, a drive for deep moral truths, and an exploration of the transience of ego and identity.Great films and a great discussion -- as always.

Eric is back and this time he and Jason are talking about the brilliant short films of Hiroshi Teshigahara (or at least the ones which are actually available). Teshigahara⁠ may be best known for his features like The Face of Another and Woman in the Dunes, but his short subjects are beautiful meditations on art and the power of the arts.As usual, Jason and Eric connect the dots and really bring the director's obsessions and power to life in this chat.

Eric is back as he and Jason continue their look at the films of the Japanese master Teshigahara. This time, the lovely and lyrical Ako and the deeply complex The Face of Another. The guys really wrestle with Face and come out of the film with more questions than they went in with, but that kind of suits the film!

Eric is back and this time he and Jason are starting their looks at the brilliant, mysterious fictional films of Hiroshi Teshigahara. This time they look at his first full-length features, Pitfall and Woman in the Dunes, two of the more fascinating films of any time period but especially the 1960s. Lots of interesting debate and perspectives in this episode!

This is part 4 of our 10 part coverage of Japanese New Wave Cinema of the 1960's. This week we cover another Teshigahara film: The Face of Another (1966), and continue the discussion of identity. There was also a guest appearance from a new host, 3D Pete, and there are even talks of making him a permanent host replacing regular Pete. Tune in next week to find out what happens as we watch The Insect Woman (1963) before taking a hiatus from the Japanese New Wave, as 3D Pete reveals next month's theme.

We are plugging away at our deep dive into Japanese New Wave cinema. This week we enter into the theme of Identity and watch Teshigahara's Woman in the Dunes (1964). We also explore more of Imamura with the supplemental The Pornographers (1966). As of late we have been trying to cover way too much in too little time, and this week is no exception. We hope you are keeping up. At the end of this series each of us will be revealing our top 10 Japanese New wave films, and even Pete will have seen 10. Tune in next week as we continue this theme and watch The Face of Another (1966). Email us at mracfilmclub@gmail.com

Zach and Rashmi get under the skin and over the langer lines as they take a close look at Hiroshi Teshigahara's 1966 New Wave existenstial terror piece, THE FACE OF ANOTHER (Tanín no Kao). Tune in as we unravel the bandages and sift through the origins of Teshigahara, take a scalpel and dissect the plot and its many themes, and take extensive note of the Ikebana laden set design. PLUS: Yes.... Zach found a way to connect something to the Robert Langdon films.

On the second episode of Adventures Through Asian Cinema, Ben and Jack take a look at two more stone cold classics of Japanese cinema. Dipping into the Japanese New Wave of the 1960s, we talk about Teshigahara's existentialist masterpiece The Face of Another, before Ben does a deep dive on the life and career of Kon Ichikawa and we talk about An Actor's Revenge.

“The more you struggle, the more new passages you make in the labyrinth, the more the box is like another layer of outer skin that grows from the body, and the inner arrangement is made more and more complex.” On this episode, hosts John Cribbs & Christopher Funderburg climb into a corrugated cardboard nightmare and explore Kobo Abe's delightfully bizarre The Box Man. Best known for his work with Hiroshi Teshigahara on the film adaptation of his novels (including The Face of Another and Woman in the Dunes), Abe was one of the most brilliant and original novelists of the 20th century. The conversation covers the book's elliptical, elusive, free-flowing structure and evasive narrative truth, whether Abe is unfairly overlooked due to his association with Teshigahara, and where the book fits into the history of literature (in the context of Abe's aggressive rejection of Japanese culture). Listen as Funderburg, a total Abe novice, discovers a new favorite author and Cribbs offers suggestions on how to approach Abe's intimidating oeuvre. Support our Patreon:

Torniamo con uno dei nostri Confronti! Stavolta prendiamo in esame "The face of another" (H. Teshigahara, 1966) e "Il volto di un'altra" (P. Corsicato, 2012) per parlare di facce, identità personale, apocalisse, chirurgia e molto altro. Nonostante l'estrema diversità di tempi e luoghi i due film (oltre ad alcune suggestioni visive molto simili) procedono parallelamente nel delineare il ritratto l'uno di un mondo interiore, l'altro di una intera società, ma sempre dal punto di vista della modifica esteriore: la modifica del proprio volto.

Gather ‘round your screens and join Pat and Adam with old friends Stephen G. and Ben JW to talk about the Charles Band “classic” Trancers starring Tim Thomerson as a cop from the future come to kill a mall Santa and fall in love with helper-elf Helen Hunt. Spoilers? Can you spoil a movie like Trancers? We've seen a lot of good movies this year, even through our last Criterion (and first of the year next week) are real low points as far as our opinions of the Collection. But the Varda boxset was certainly a highlight, and the Teshigahara set as well. When we started this project we joked that it would take us a dozen or so years. It's been 8 and we're barely closer to the end now than we were then. Time and Criterions march on. Merry whichever holiday you may celebrate this time of year, and a very happy new year to us all. May we continue the first steps we're taking out of the long dark.

Hiroshi Teshigahara went on a trip to Spain with his dad and made a short, silent vacation movie during it. Years later, after his father's death, Teshigahara essentially reshot it, elongated it, and focused it on the Barcelona-area works of architect Antonio Gaudi. It is, arguably, unlike any other movie we've seen in the Collection in good and bad ways.

We finish up the 3 Films by Teshigahara boxset with four more films. Aside from the three collaborations with surrealist novelist Kobo Abe on the Criterion release are four shorts, three documentaries on a variety of subjects, and Teshigahara's portion of an international anthology on the lives of teenage girls: Hokusai (1953) Ikebana (1956) Tokyo 1958 (1958) Ako (1965)

In this week’s episode, Chris and the returning Aruba wander the arid deserts of entrapment and identity with Hiroshi Teshigahara’s Woman in the Dunes (1964). They talk about the influential Japanese New Wave and Teshigahara’s place in it, the themes of identity and obligation within an uncaring society, whether or not this can be considered a love story, the crossover appeal of this important cult hit, and of course SAAAAAAANNNNNNNDDDDDD!!!

On this episode, Derek and Matt talk about Atomic Blonde, Teshigahara films, finding the Kernel of truth in comments and taking suggestions, as well as festival films: Flipped Out, The Wave, Mondays, Dress Rehearsal, and Witch-Hunt.

SHUJI TERAYAMA et son cycle pastoral (no.323) C'est partie mon kiki pour la saison 2015 du 7ème antiquaire! Neuf années d'existence et la gouve est encore pleine. Il y a encore de la fébrilité dans nos consciences à chaque émissions. C'est un plaisir de te retrouver, ma soeur, mon frère. On commence la saison en force avec un portrait de l'artiste TERAYAMA SHŪJI, plus particulièrement ce qu'il convient d'appeler son cycle filmique de la "mémoire pastorale". Toi, l'assoiffé de Jodo, Teshigahara, Fellini et Greenaway qui cherchait un chainon manquant avec une cloche trempée dans le sang qui pend au bout, toi qui aime chevaucher tout nu le simandre de la mémoire, tu attendais peut-être/sans doute cette émission. Si ce n'est pas le cas, je dois admettre qu'il va falloir qu'on se parle.

Shuji Terayama's Pastoral - To Die In Country / Den-en ni shisu is the eclectic filmmaker's second feature film. It's the story of a filmmaker telling the tale of his young life and revising it on the fly in a highly stylized, artful work that should not be missed.

Hiroshi Teshigahara et l'existentialisme nippon.Ce n'est pas la première fois que nous parlons de Teshigahara au 7ème. Ce ne sera pas la dernière. Peut-être sommes nous un peu présomptueux, mais cette semaine, nous tenterons de faire l'émission définitive sur celui que nous avons nommé "le jardinier des images".
