I finally watched Gakuryu Ishii's The Box Man... wow what an incredible piece of cinema...
There's a great season of 1980s Japanese cinema coming up at @TheGardenCinema in the new year, including a couple of films that I wrote about in Japanese Cinema and Punk.
I'll be introducing the Tetsuo: The Iron Man screening on Thurs 26th Feb.
Glad to be part of this set of challenging but deeply rewarding films. More great work from @thirdwindow
