An upcoming film based on Masahisa Fukase’s life

Freakscene · Mar 16, 2025

Could be interesting, but I fear that it might just be drama. Although his life was dramatic, no doubt.

One thing - I have seen the prints from the original Karasu exhibition, and they were nowhere near as big as the print at 0:45.

Looks well worth the effort to see on a big screen.

THANK YOU!!

Thanks for sharing. I did not know the 'retrospective' book. Just ordered it. Cheers, OtL

I am fascinated by Fukase's photos. Thus far I've only known him through the "Ravens" book--a great book, for sure. Based on this thread, I've broken a promise to myself to not buy any other photo books. Ordered two of Fukase's.

The video about Fukase was interesting. However, the narrator's black gloves and his waving his hands around while speaking was distracting to say the least. Another reason why I avoid videos most of the time.

I managed to see this, it was tremendously disappointing, if nicely shot. I certainly wouldn’t go out of your way to find it. Saying why would be a total spoiler, so I’ll just leave it at that.

So see it streamable one night instead of in the theater?

I believe this is more enjoyable to watch:

I certainly believe that this video is more informative.

I'm curious where you saw it?

A sneak preview screening. I had to travel to see it.

It was live on MUBI for streaming rental briefly, but no longer appears to be. Mark Gill is trying to secure a distribution deal for a world wide release this year.
