It’s the PREMIERE episode of our new limited series SERPENT’S TAIL: THE FILMS OF KIYOSHI KUROSAWA and on this episode we discuss why we chose the filmmaker as our subject, our (limited) experience with his work, a bit about his background and dive into his first two features: 1983’s KANDAGAWA PERVERT WARS and 1985’s BUMPKIN SOUP (aka THE EXCITEMENT OF THE DO-RE-MI-FA GIRL). Both films have a unique mix of eroticism and surrealism, and are a world away from the films we most closely associated with Kurosawa. Enjoy!
Michael is joined by award winning filmmaker Derek Pfister of Chair on Stair Films to discuss the Sydney Pollack film “Bobby Deerfield”.
