JCA Film Series Lineup

The lineup for this semester's JCA Japanese Film Series is now set, and here it is:

Jan. 27th - Wild Zero
Feb. 10th - Densha Otoko (Train Man)
Feb. 24th - Tokyo Sonata
Mar. 10th - Sakuran
Mar. 24th - Hula Girls
Apr. 21st - Kaidan

Screenings begin at 6pm in Manitou Hall Rm. 122. This week's film, Wild Zero, is the kind of simple human-interest story you've heard hundreds of times before: boy meets transgender girl, aliens invade and reanimate zombies, boy fights zombies aided by the leather-jacket clad punk band Guitar Wolf. Yes, we've seen it all before, but if we look closely perhaps we'll find something original in this understated film.

Here's a pdf of the schedule, so download, print out, and tell all your friends.
