About Book

影视はCrazy気の游である

The only Japanese director to have won the Cannes Palme d'Or twice
.
Japanese New Wave leader Shohei Imamura's autobiographical essays published in Chinese for the first time
.
Shohei Imamura studied under Yasujiro Ozu. In terms of film expression techniques, he inherited some aspects while breaking through traditional constraints. With his avant-garde and rebellious style, he became the leader of the new wave of Japanese films together with Nagisa Oshima and others. He won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival twice for "The Eel" and "The Ballad of Narayama".
He excels at exploring the concepts of life, death, and sex, exploring the ideologies of life and death, eroticism, and vices deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Whether in image processing or choice of subject matter, he often employs shocking methods, and his works frequently amaze the film industry.
In this book, Shohei Imamura writes profoundly and simply about his film dreams and his optimistic outlook on life.
.
Shohei Imamura is always exploring the bottom line of human nature, staring at the most real ugliness and barbarism. He is an anthropologist among directors.
——Award speech at the Cannes Film Festival Shohei Imamura’s films are simple in expression, but he is indeed a master and occupies a very important position in film history.
——Martin Scorsese (famous American director)
He describes human instincts and desires nakedly, showing the image of the struggle and resistance of the post-war Japanese people. He is a representative figure in the post-war Japanese film industry.
—— Tadao Sato (famous Japanese film critic)
