The Japanese New Wave, or , is a movement of Japanese filmmakers and their work from the late 1950s through the early 1970s. == History == David Desser in his ''Eros plus Massacre'' places the marginal comment:
Unlike the French nouvelle vague, the Japanese movement initially began within the studios, albeit with young, and previously little-known filmmakers. The term was first coined within the studios (and in the media) as a Japanese version of the French New Wave movement.〔Sato, p. 213-215 and Richie, p. 196〕 Nonetheless, the Japanese New Wave filmmakers drew from some of the same international influences that inspired their French colleagues, and as the term stuck, the seemingly artificial movement surrounding it began to rapidly develop into a critical and increasingly independent film movement. One distinction in the French movement was its roots with the journal ''Cahiers du cinéma''; as many future filmmakers began their careers as critics and cinema deconstructionists, it would become apparent that new kinds of film theory (most prominently, auteur theory) were emerging with them. The Japanese movement developed at roughly the same time (with several important 1950s precursor films), but arose as more of a movement devoted to questioning, analyzing, critiquing and (at times) upsetting social conventions. One Japanese filmmaker who ''did'' emerge from a background akin to his French colleagues was Nagisa Oshima, who had been a leftist activist and an analytical film critic before being hired by a studio. Oshima's earliest films (1959–60) could be seen as direct outgrowths of opinions voiced in his earlier published analysis.〔Sato (p. 213) & Oshima (''Cinema Censorship and the State: The Writings of Nagisa Oshima'', 1993, M.I.T. Press)〕 ''Cruel Story of Youth'', Oshima's landmark second film (one of four he directed in 1959 and 1960) saw an international release very immediately in the wake of Jean-Luc Godard's ''Breathless'' and François Truffaut's ''The 400 Blows''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Japanese New Wave」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
