Un petit thread pour mes jeunes amies féministes. En 1973, Dim allait rendre aux femmes leur corps de femmes...

The Tokyo IFF is in the same neighbourhood as the Takarazuka Revue, so I'm constantly seeing posters for their all-female production of RRR.

In 1956, #Suntory launched its promo magazine "Yôshu Tengoku" (Western Liquor Paradise - 洋酒天国), possibly the coolest connoisseurs' mag ever. A thread. #洋酒天国 #SuntorySecretClub

'A Killed Stewardess : White or Black?' (殺されたスチュワーデス 白か黒か), Daiei 1959. Today I will talk to you about a famous unsolved Japanese murder case and the fiction it inspired. A thread.

I'll bring back some of my old threads on twitter.

Do you see the pic?

It seems like i can't post images.

平凡 Heibon was a publication that started in 1945 as a literary magazine. From 1948 it shifted its focus more on music and film stars, becoming very popular and read in the 1950s.
This is from 1954: Wakao Ayako, Kyō Machiko, on the cover Yukimura Izumi

夜の女たちWomen of the Night (Mizoguchi Kenji, 1948)
what a grim and extraordinary movie, with excellent performances all around

Bonjour.

I'll mainly post here from now on and will migrate a few of my old twitter threads here.

Hello to you my friends. Yes. Barbacaca is here.
