Tuumba Press; Berkeley, 2003
Literary Nonfiction. Cinema Studies. Second, Revised Edition. Very good paperbound wraps; Offered here in Spring 2005, this new edition has new text added based on the new availability of Yasujiro Ozu\'s extand works. \"I felt inspired to improve the description of The Only Son and deepen my thoughts about Ozu in general,\" write Nathaniel Dorsky in the new preface. He has been making and exhibiting films within the avant-garde tradition since 1964.For film to have a devotional quality both absolute and relative time must be active and present not only present but functioning simultaneously and invigorating one another. Transformative film rests in the present and respects the delicate details of its own unfolding. \"
