It included analysis and commentary on Yasujirō Ozu's films and film-making techniques. ==Background== The book was inspired from the documentary series ''Yoshida Kiju ga kataru Ozu-san no eiga'' (''Kiju Yoshida Talking about Ozu Films'') and translated from Japanese by Daisuke Miyao and Kyoko Hirano. It also happens to be the first Japanese book based on Yasujirō Ozu works to be translated in English. Yoshida himself is a well known director, he had directed the 1969film ''Eros + Massacre'', a Japanese New Wave film. The book was originally published in Japanese as ''Ozu Yasujirō no han eiga'' in 1998. The author had worked with Shōchiku Studio as an assistant director and like several other directors of that time, he was critical of Ozu's films. Yoshida called the research work for the book "a reflection of his own awareness of aging". The book was awarded the Japanese Ministry of Education Commendation Award, 1998. Previously, Masaaski Tsuzuki, Shigehiko Hasumi, Masasumi Tanaka, Paul Schrader and David Bordwell had published works on Yasujirō Ozu. 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「Ozu's Anti-Cinema」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
