This book explores the depictions of Imperial Japan in film and their historical context, including wartime propaganda and postwar censorship. It includes correspondence and critiques from studio personnel, film reviewers, historians, and military figures.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 277 pages
Publication date: 31 May 2024
Publisher: McFarland & Co Inc


Imperial Japan's depictions from totalitarian power to recent productions, including wartime depictions and historical events, are explored in this book. Hollywood's Mr. Moto in the 1930s and wartime propaganda films during World War II increased hatred for the enemy. In the postwar years, the US government encouraged friendship with Japan, leading to censorship of controversial film content. This book includes correspondence between studio personnel and the Production Code office, critiques by film reviewers, historians, and military figures, and behind-the-scenes machinations from both the Japanese and American governments in the censorship of controversial film content.
