// RETROSPECTIVE 2010 //
Shin–Toho
 |
The retrospective will be dedicated to one of the most celebrated Japanese production companies, ShinToho. Specialised in genre movies, producing noir crime thrillers, so crucial to the syntax of popular Japanese cinema, ShinToho will be put under the microscope in Udine, thanks to 15 titles never before seen outside of Japan, produced in the 50s and 60s. |
// FOCUS //
Patrick Lung Kong
 |
A focus on the cinema of Patrick Lung Kong, an auteur who is politically non-aligned. A key figure and forefather in the ex-British colony of the New Wave of the 1980s, he has become an compulsory reference point for directors and actors of the new generation. A Better Tomorrow, the urban noir masterpiece by John Woo (Golden Lion for Lifetime's Achievement at the upcoming Venice Film Festival), is the remake of his hyper-realistic picture from 1967, Story Of The Discharged Prisoner. |
