Back in February I mentioned that I'd be doing another interview with Nakata Hideo about his latest film, Foreign Filmmakers' Guide to Hollywood (Hollywood Kantoku Gakunyûmon, 『ハリウッド監督学入門』), which is now playing at Theatre Image Forum. Most of the film is in English, so for those of you based in Tokyo or who will be visiting, check it out.
So, the interview is now available for your enjoyment over at Twitch.
The above pictured chirashi was produced by distributor Bitters End to promote the film here. Splashed all over it are quotes from various supporters -- directors, producers, writers, actors and even yours truly. You can see the list online here.
The blog "redesign" isn't a redesign at all but simply a prefab template while I work out some webspace issues. It does, however, allow for larger images than the previous format.

That's pretty cool. Quick question -- why is your name the only foreign one not in katakana?
No idea! Lily Franky is Japanese of course, but Danny Boyle is on there, too. Hmm.
Nice interview...enjoy Japanese cinema a lot and your writing... and great to land up on your blog.
Thanks for the comment -- glad to have a reader from India. As I'm sure you know, Tokyo FILMeX held a retrospective on Ritwik Ghatak two years ago. Seems like your blog is doing a lot to keep his name alive.
