A retrospective of non-kaiju films by noted Godzilla director Ishiro Honda will be held April 6 through June 7 in Tokyo.
Time Out Tokyo reports:
Best known for his kaiju movies and as director of the original Godzilla, the late Ishiro Honda also had an eye for less grandiose projects like quiet dramas and romantic comedies. Asagaya's Laputa theatre is now showing nine rare Honda films, including the melodrama People of Tokyo, Goodbye (1956) and marriage comedy Song for a Bride (1958) – check out the full nine-week program on the official website (Japanese only).This sounds like something worth going to Japan to see.
