SUMMARY:Tokaido Megalopolis: the megacity region that swallowed Japan
DESCRIPTION:Mega-urbanization poses huge challenges today in Asia.  The Tokaido Megalopolis from Tokyo to Osaka was the first case of this urban scale in Asia\, and many of the issues faced by today’s emerging mega-city regions were identified in Tokaido 50 years ago\, but at a very different moment in world history\, and with different interpretations of major challenges and possible policy responses. This talk reviews and draws lessons from the Japanese experience of urbanization. \n\nAndré Sorensen is Professor and Chair of the Department of Human Geography\, University of Toronto Scarborough. His monograph ‘The Making of Urban Japan: Cities and Planning from Edo to the 21st Century’ (Routledge 2002) won the book prize of the International Planning History Society in 2004. His paper ‘Taking Path Dependence Seriously’ (2015) published in Planning Perspectives\, won the Association of European Schools of Planning Best Paper Award in 2016. His current research examines institutions\, urban space\, and temporal processes in urbanization and urban governance from a comparative historical institutional perspective\, with a focus on urban land and property development\, infrastructure management\, and the creation of increasingly differentiated property rights in urban settings.

SUMMARY:Fall Films: A Tale of Samurai Cooking
DESCRIPTION:A Tale of Samurai Cooking 武士の献立\n\nBringing back this popular film for two screening days! ENJOY! \n@JFT\, Free Admission\, RSVP required \nMonday November 13\, 6:30 PM \nThursday November 23\, 6:30 PM \n \nDirected by Yûzô Asahara \n2013\, 122 minutes\, PG \nStarring Aya Ueto\, Kengo Kôra\, Kimiko Yo \nHistorical comedy/drama \nHaru has an excellent sense of taste and great talent as a chef\, but her “spirited character” was too much for her first husband\, who divorced her after only one year of marriage. When a famous samurai chef from Kaga observes Haru’s culinary abilities\, he has a brilliant idea. The Funaki family\, who have served the Lord of Kaga for generations\, are known as “kitchen samurai” for their innovative dishes. However\, the heir to the family business\, Yasunobu\, shows little aptitude for or interest in cuisine. In order to save the Funaki family name and their reputation as kitchen samurai\, Haru agrees to marry Yasunobu and teach him the art of cooking. But will he be a willing student of this independent and opinionated new sensei? \nKAGA CUISINE \nThis story was inspired by a real-life family in Kaga that survived countless historical upheavals with its cuisine. Kaga Cuisine is famous for wide variety of luxurious dishes served on colorful lacquer ware and Kutani porcelain\, ranging from ordinary home cooking to Chinese-influenced haute cuisine rivalling even that of Kyoto. \n© 2013 “A Tale of Samurai Cooking” Film Partners

SUMMARY:Fall Films: Mitsuko Delivers
DESCRIPTION:Mitsuko Delivers ハラがコレなんで\n\n@JFT\, Free Admission\, RSVP required \nMonday November 20\, 6:30 PM \n  \nDirected by Yuya Ishii \n2011\, 109 minutes \nCast: Riisa Naka\, Aoi Nakamura\, Ryo Ishibashi\, Miyoko Inagawa \nComedy/drama \nA heartwarming comedy about a gutsy pregnant woman who gives her all to help others. It is the third feature-length work from 80s-born director Ishii Yuya\, who came to prominence with his film Sawako Decides\, and presents a vibrant depiction of idiosyncratic working class people. Mitsuko (Naka Riisa) is an optimist who strives to stay true to her concept of “cool\,” and also happens to be nine months pregnant. With neither a husband\, a home\, nor money\, she seeks refuge at the row house where she lived as child\, only to discover that the landlord Kiyo (Inagawa Miyoko) has become bedridden\, and that her childhood friend Yoichi (Nakamura Aoi) is struggling to keep his father’s unpopular eatery afloat. \n© 2011 “Mitsuko Delivers” Film Partners

SUMMARY:Bring Your Own Bento Lunchtime Films > Japanese Manners
DESCRIPTION:An Introduction to Japanese Manners \nBring Your Own Bento Lunchtime Films\nNovember 22\, 12:00 PM (Doors Open)\, film starts 12:15 PM \n\nCost: Free \n\n NHK International\, Documentary in English (20 min. x 2)\nInside and Outside　\nIn Japanese society\, there is a social world of implicit shared understanding\, and an outer social world that lacks this element. For example\, a person who fails to blend in to a community will be treated as an outsider\, but once recognised as an insider\, very strong relational bonds are formed. This short film explains the basics about what to do when you move in to a new place and how to greet your new neighbours. \n\nJapanese Vagueness\nIn many conversational situations\, Japanese people have a tendency to accommodate others by not clearly stating their own opinions. They use modest expressions like “It’s a very poor thing\, but please accept this” when presenting a gift. This second short film shows the distinction between surface expressions and actual feelings in the workplace\, where directness is often avoided for the sake of relationships. \nDon’t forget to bring your lunch (bento)!
