A short version of “Kaguya-Hime,” a 1935 film thought to have been lost for which special effects genius Eiji Tsuburaya served as director of photography, turned up in Britain.
It will be shown at the National Film Archive of Japan in Tokyo in September for the film’s first screening in Japan in nearly 90 years.
Tsuburaya (1901-1970) produced many works known for “tokusatsu” special effects, such as “Godzilla” in 1954 and the “Ultraman” superhero TV series that began in 1966.
“The film voraciously incorporates the latest technologies of the time, and it is a work of cinema essential to retrace the roots of Tsuburaya’s creativity,” said Masaki Daibo, chief researcher at the NFAJ.
