Check the link. If you live in the NY area, there's a retrospective of Nagisa Oshima films going on at the Brooklyn Academy of Music from April 1st - 14th (darn, looks like I missed seeing one of my favorites on the big screen yesterday: The Sun's Burial). A lot of these are hard to find films by a real master of the avant garde/New Wave in Japan. Looks like a few of my favorites aren't getting shown but I have to strongly emphasize the importance of seeing Three Resurrected Drunkards (Tue, April 7 at 4:30, 6:50, 9:15pm). That movie is awesome.
Trailer:
I'm going to jump at the chance to see that one again and try catching a few of these that I missed at the NY Film Festival last fall. if anyone else in the area is interested and would like to meet up as well, drop me a private message.
