It was an independently produced, experimental, avant-garde work from Japan whose brilliant use of cinematic technique was equal to if not superior to that of contemporary European cinema. Those studying Japan, focusing on the central involvement of such writers as Yokomitsu Riichi and the Nobel Prize winner Kawabata Yasunari, have seen it as a pillar of the close relationship in the Taisho era between film and artistic modernism, as well as a marker of the uniqueness of prewar Japanese film culture.But is this film really what it seems to be? Aaron Gerow brings meticulous research to the films production, distribution, exhibition, and reception and closely analyzes the films shooting script and shooting notes, which were recently made available. He draws a new picture of this complex work, revealing a film divided between experiment and convention, modernism and melodrama, the image and the word, cinema and literature, conflicts that play out in the story and structure of the film and its context. A Page of Madness, a film fundamentally about differing perceptions and conflicting worlds, was received at the time in different versions and with varying interpretations, and ironically, the film that exists today is not in fact the one originally released. Including a detailed analysis of the film and translations of contemporary reviews and shooting notes for scenes missing from the current print, Gerows book offers provocative insight into the fascinating film A Page of Madness wasand still isand into the struggles over this work that tried to articulate the place of cinema in Japanese society and modernity....3617732A Page of Madness307426https://www.gandhi.com.mx/a-page-of-madness-9781929280742/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3830048/f24c47ac-efbf-4483-8a26-6277e60b389b.jpg?v=638385939359930000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20169781929280742_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9781929280742_Kinugasa Teinosuke’s 1926 film A Page of Madness (Kurutta ichipeiji) is celebrated as one of the masterpieces of silent cinema.
