---From Japan House---
Join film producer Yamada Kenji for a lunchtime talk as he discusses the making of Oscar-winning Godzilla Minus One, ahead of a screening at Japan House London later that day.
Yamada shares insight into how the iconic monster was brought to life behind the scenes, how he recreated post-war Tokyo and his involvement in the Academy Awards campaign. He will also discuss his role in other films and series including the critically acclaimed MONSTER and The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House for Netflix, both directed by Koreeda Hirokazu.
Long-time anime dilettante and general lover of cinema. Obsessive re-watcher of 'stuff'. Has issues with dubs. Will go off on tangents about other things that no one else cares about but is sadly passionate about. (Also, parentheses come as standard.) Looks curiously like Jo Shishido, hamster cheeks and all.
