Book Chapter
Inventing Television through Film
2022
Overview
The standard narrative of television's appearance in the field of visual media in Japan is one example, operating through oppositions between new and old, small and large, private and public, and live and recorded. With some filmmakers like Hani Susumu, television was constructed in part to help formulate a new “New Wave” cinema. Television was identified as a competitor, the enemy, and movie executives did what they could to prevent the new medium from weakening the film business. The historical narrative of the film industry's aggression toward television should thus be refined to reflect a more complex relation. It is important to point out, however, that while Okada's theory of television tied difference to medium specificity, difference could also transcend media. Okada is just one example of the attraction television posed to New Wave filmmakers.
