It was my pleasure to sit down with those theaters' respective programmers, Alexander Fee and Edo Choi, for a discussion of Naruse's necessity in both theatrical and celluloid contexts, titles of particularly special note, and––most importantly––the best places to eat in each institut...2025-05-1244 min
