Summary: An elderly couple from the provincial city of Onomichi travel up to Tokyo to visit two of their children, who are now grown and busy with concerns of their own. The simple story of how these loving parents accept the painful arc of their lives is moving and profound, and has led critics to name Yasujiro Ozu's 1953 movie "Tokyo Story" one of the greatest films of all time. Included here is a complete translation of the Japanese screenplay to "Tokyo Story", critical observations by film expert Donald Richie on Ozu's filmmaking, a filmography, and 20 stills. Students of screenwriting will learn much from Ozu's lean approach, while film lovers will treasure this unique keepsake of a great cinematic achievement. [Taken from the back of the book]

Summary: Explores bibliographic aspects of director Shohei Imamura, noting that Imamura presents an alternative vision of Japanese culture which is typically represented as still, serene, civilised and rigidly hierarchical. Donald Richie instead frames Imamura's films like "Akai Satsui" within a Japan not bound by rules of decorum and order. Richie also comments on how Imamura worked as assistant director to Yasujiro Ozu for a number of films, including "Tokyo Story", then comparing and contrasting between Imamura and Ozu's filmic style
Notes: "Akai Satsui" is also known by the English titles of "Unholy Desire", "Intentions of Murder", and "Murderous Instincts"
