I have a question for my Japan-interested friends: I will likely teach "Japanese Politics and Society Through Film" again in the summer. What movies should I show? @AllisonAlexy @David_Leheny @NathanielMSmith @mclaughlin_levi
Here is the syllabus from the last time I taught it: http://personal.tcu.edu/michaelstrausz/teaching/film/summer2015.pdf I have shown movies including: Burmese Harp, Departures, Campaign, various Kore-eda movies, koko yakyu, the learning machine, etc. I will likely show the original Japanese Godzilla this time.
