A SUMMER OF AKIRA KUROSAWA IN THE KOBAYASHI HALL
This summer we will be featuring two of Akira Kurosawa’s late period masterpieces, Kagemusha and Ran, as our Movie Night features.
Kagemusha – the Masterwork that Restored the Master’s Reputation
Set in the late 16th century, Kagemusha centres on the Takeda clan, one of three warlord clans battling for control of Japan
at the end of the feudal period. When Lord Shingen (Tatsuya Nakadai), head of the Takeda clan, is mortally wounded in
battle and near death, he orders that his death be kept secret and that his “kagemusha”--or “shadow warrior”--take his place
for a period of three years to prevent clan disruption and enemy takeover. The identical double is a petty thief (also played
by Nakadai) spared from execution due to his uncanny resemblance to Lord Shingen--but his true identity cannot prevent
the tides of fate from rising over the Takeda clan in a climactic scene of battlefield devastation. Through stunning visuals
and meticulous attention to every physical and stylistic detail, this 1980 Kurosawa masterpiece restored the great director’s
status as Japan’s greatest filmmaker.
Date:
Thursday June 30, 2005
Time: 7:00pm
Admission: $5 for JCCC members, $7 for non-members
Ran – Kurosawa’s Final Masterpiece
As critic Roger Ebert observed in his original review of Ran, this epic tragedy might have been attempted by a younger
director, but only the Japanese master Akira Kurosawa, who made the film at age 75, could bring the requisite experience
and maturity to this stunning interpretation of Shakespeare’s King Lear. It’s a film for the ages--one of the few genuine screen
masterpieces--and arguably serves as an artistic summation of the great director’s career. In this version of the Shakespeare
tragedy, the king is a 16th century warlord (Tatsuya Nakadai as Lord Hidetora) who decides to retire and divide his kingdom
evenly among his three sons. When one son defiantly objects out of loyalty to his father and warns of inevitable sibling
rivalry, he is banished and the kingdom is awarded to his compliant siblings. The loyal son’s fears are valid: a duplicitous
power struggle ensues and the aging warlord witnesses a maelstrom of horrifying death and destruction. Although the film
is slow to establish its story, it’s clear that Kurosawa, who planned and painstakingly designed the production for 10 years
before filming began, was charting a meticulous and tightly formalized dramatic strategy. As familial tensions rise and betrayal sends Lord
Hidetora into the throes of escalating madness, Ran (the title is the Japanese character for “chaos” or “rebellion”) reaches a fevered pitch
through epic battles and a fortress assault that is simply one of the most amazing sequences on film.
Date: Thursday July 28, 2005
Time: 7:00pm
Admission: $5 for JCCC members, $7 for non-members

PRESERVATION AND CATALOGUING OF
YOUR FAMILY’S ARTEFACTS AND HISTORY
Dear Members of the JC Community,
Over the last several years, the Japanese Canadian Legacy
Project (“JCLP”), an initiative of the Japanese Canadian Cultural
Centre (“JCCC”) and its Heritage Committee, has been developing
a digital archive in partnership with Seattle-based Densho, the
Japanese American Legacy Project (www.densho.org). This
digital archive will record for future generations, the lives of senior
Japanese Canadians and their experiences before, during and after
World War II. Video interviews are an exciting focus of this project,
however primary documents from the early years of Japanese
Canadian history will also be collected and catalogued.
Our experiences with archiving photographs have impressed
upon us the importance of these artefacts in reconstructing the
story of Japanese Canadians. We have also realized that it is often
a challenge to preserve these documents and while, for the time
being, the JCLP is not in a position to collect and store this material
itself, we wish to initiate a community wide project to collect and
catalogue your own family’s records and photos into a family
archive, before they are lost or destroyed. We expect to partner
with an appropriate institution that will help us preserve, store and
display these artefacts.
We would like to ask each family to make all efforts to compile
and preserve any mementos or documents of life before and during
internment that they or their family may have in their possession.
These may take the form of clothing and household items from the
camps or photographs, films, letters, as well as printed materials
such as paper clippings or government issued documents. The
only way that this facet of our history can be preserved is with the
help of community members. Collected documents can be shared
with family members which will be an important and enjoyable
opportunity for the issei and nisei to educate younger family
members. At a later date, there may be opportunity to include these
artefacts in displays at the JCCC and in the digital archive being
developed by the JCLP.
Here are some steps that your family should take:
1. Collect material from storage and review them with your family.
Identify and record the dates, places and names of people who are
in photographs and films. The name of the photographer, if known,
should be included.
2. Other non-documentary items of historical significance (clothing,
household items) that help illustrate the JC experience in Canada,
should be photographed and documented (for example, what is it,
who owns it, why is it significant?)
3.Collected articles should be kept in a clean, dry environment that
is not in direct lighting and is away from high temperatures. Copies
of important documents should be made for safekeeping and stored
at a different location from the originals. There are many varieties of
digital scanners available for home personal computers. Although it
is important to preserve original documents, these scanners make
it easy produce digital copies.
4. A master list of your family’s artefacts and records should be
kept and shared with family members identifying the items and
indicating where they are stored for safekeeping, together with
written instructions that such artefacts and records may be loaned
to the JCCC for educational and historical purposes (including
exhibition) and/or for inclusion in the JCPL’s digital archive.
For further information on preserving documents, we recommend
these following web links:

Should you have any questions or should you be interested
in further information regarding the JCLP, please contact Toshiko
Yamashita, JCCC Heritage Coordinator, at 416-441-2345 ext.227
or heritage@jccc.on.ca. We hope that creating a family tree and a
family archive will be an enjoyable and educational experience for
you and your family.
Sincerely,
Japanese Canadian Legacy Project

FAREWELL ALICE
A respected and well-liked member of the JCCC family will be
leaving us in June of this year. Alice Zhao, our Data Administrator,
will be moving to Los Angeles as a result of her husband’s work
transfer this summer. Alice has been with the JCCC since 1998 and
her contribution has been invaluable.
Her work ethic, attention to detail and flexibility are beyond
compare. What we will miss even more than her fine work, however,
is her calm, pleasant and charming personality. No matter what
the crisis, Alice could be counted on to deal with it in a calm and
professional manner. Alice was more than a co-worker - she has
been a friend and a member of the JCCC family. We will miss her;
we wish her all the best south of the border and we look forward to
her return to Toronto in the years to come.
Thank you Alice. Arigato, soshite otsukare sama. Mata

HAIKU CORNER

NEW WORKS FROM MARK YUNGBLUT
DECORATE THE JCCC
For the past few months, Mark Yungblut displayed his astounding
kiri-e work in the multi-purpose corridor. For the next 6 weeks we
will be exhibiting a selection of his sketches. The following is Mark’s
description of the work:
While writing an essay about Japanese history in my last year
of high school I came across a picture of Himeji Castle in one of the
books I was reading. For some reason the picture struck me, and I
kept looking at it again and again because it was so pleasing to me.
At the time, I had taken a few art courses and knew that I had some
talent and thought why not try and draw it. I had no idea it would
turn out as well as it did, and it was from that drawing that I drew
the motivation to do more works. My interest in drawing, as well as
in Japan grew from that point on, culminating in the opportunity to
visit Japan a few times, which gave me the subject matter for the
drawings on the wall.
In terms of the media used, all of the drawings are done in pencil
and, where there is colour, pencil crayon. I like to use a lot of detail
and I have found that pencil is the best way to do this. I’ve also
found that it’s the cleanest, and easiest medium to control which
also helps in creating detail. In addition to using pencils, an eraser
and a paper stomp (used to make the shading more smooth), I also
use a ruler alot in order to make sure that all of the walls and roofs
are in proportion to one another when drawing buildings, as well as
making straight lines. I apply the same method of measurement to
other drawings, ensuring that every facial feature, body part, etc. is
in its proper position. At first this involved a lot of trial and error, and
luck, but I’ve become a lot better at it over time, which is reflected in
the more recent drawings. I hope that you enjoy this display.
