Kenji Mizoguchi The Life of a Film Director - 1975 - Kaneto Shin

JAPANESE FILMDIRECTOR Kenji Mizoguchi



This documentary is quite lengthy (2,5 hours) and

sprinkled with details (miscellaneous information)

about Kenji Mizoguchi - very personal things, his

way of working on set and various impressions of

his work. Most of it is interviews with all sorts

of people (coworkers from film sets, production

company managers, ...)

But if you havn't yet seen any of his films or havn't

been infected with passionate desire for Mizoguchi's

unique stile this may a bit too long for you and seem

boring.
