Description   In the 1960s, Japanese filmmakers responded to a stale studio system by looking for fresh ways to tell stories, and Shohei Imamura was one of the leading figures of this new wave. With the three films in this set—Pigs and Battleships, The Insect Woman, and Intentions of Murder—Imamura truly emerged as an auteur, bringing to his national cinema an anthropological eye and a previously unseen taste for the irreverent. Claiming his interests lay in “the relationship of the lower part of the human body and the lower part of the social structure,” Imamura dotted the decade with earthy, juicy, idiosyncratic films featuring persevering, willful heroines. His remains a unique cinematic voice.   Features Set includes Pigs and Battleships, The Insect Woman, and Intentions of Murder New, restored high-definition digital transfers Conversations between Shohei Imamura and critic Tadao Sato about The Insect Woman and Intentions of Murder “Imamura, the Free Thinker,” a 1995 episode of the French television series Cinéma de notre temps Interviews with renowned critic and historian Tony Rayns on all three films New and improved English subtitle translations PLUS: Booklets featuring essays by film critics Audie Bock, Dennis Lim, and James Quandt
