・偲ぶ会にて 　先日、映画の東宝スタジオサービスの社長さんから、突然お手紙をいただいた。お手紙とはいっても、特別な内容のものではなく、先ごろ亡くなった高峰秀子さんの「偲ぶ会」があるので、出席しないかというお誘いであった。 　私は自著『俺に似たひと』の中で、高峰秀子に触れ、彼女への偏愛を少しだけ語った。くだんの社長は、私の本を読んでくれていて、高峰ファンの私にお声を掛けていただいたというわけである。当日、私はどんな往年の俳優が集まるのかと、ほとんどミーハー気分で会場へ出かけた。 　会場は、スタジオにステージを拵え、椅子を配したにわか作りの劇場になっており、舞台の正面には小さなスクリーンが配置されていた。思っていたとおり、司葉子や、星百合子、八千草薫、宝田明などスクリーンでしかお目にかかれないスターの顔が揃った。(本文より)内田樹&平川克美の「大人の条件」はこちらから→https://yakan-hiko.com/uchida.html

First published in 1973, this is a study of the force of photographic images, which are continually inserted between experience and reality. When anything can be photographed, and photography has destroyed the boundaries and definitions of art, a viewer can approach a photograph freely, with no expectations of discovering what it means. This collection of six lucid and invigorating essays, with the most famous being "In Plato's Cave", make up a deep exploration of how the image has affected society.

私たちの生活のいたるところで，デザインは息づいている．その囁きに，ちょっと立ち止まって耳を傾けてみよう．そこには，柔らかな感受性から生まれた生活への新しい提案と，未来への可能性が託されている．

最近はシェアハウスに住んでいる人が多くなったので、今日はシェアハウスを舞台にした作品を紹介しますね。 　映画を観ていて、ああ、青春時代が懐かしいな、ちょっとだけでいいからあの時代に戻りたいな、と思うことがあります。フランスのセドリック・クラピッシュが監督と脚本を手掛けた2002年の『スパニッシュ・アパートメント』はまさにそんな思いを強く抱かせてくれる作品です。 　主人公のグザヴィエ（ロマン・デュリス）はパリで暮らす25歳の大学生。卒業を間近に控えた彼の一大関心事は就職。幼い頃は作家に憧れていましたが、今は安定性を重視し、父親の友人である高級官僚の勧めに従って、スペイン語を習い、外交官を目指すことを決意。恋人と別れ、バルセロナの語学学校へ留学します。（本文より） ロバート・ハリス　運命のダイスを転がせ！ はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/robert.html

気鋭の脳科学者が挑む「音楽とは何か？」。知的刺激に満ちた音楽理論書 「音楽の仕組みや存在意義に根本から科学的にアプローチした本書は、多くの演奏家にとっても気づきの多い内容だと思う。音階／音律の成り立ちに関して沢山本を読んだが、本書がもっとも理にかなって分かりやすい。

David Mitchell’s 2014 best seller Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse must really have made people think - because everything’s got worse. We’ve gone from UKIP surge to Brexit shambles, from horsemeat in lasagne to Donald Trump in the White House, from Woolworths going under to all the other shops going under. It’s probably socially irresponsible even to try to cheer up.

「これだよこれ！」 米レジェンダリーピクチャーズ版『ゴジラGODZILLA』（ギャレス・エドワーズ監督）の公開前に関連書籍が多く発売されたが、2014年５月下旬に河出書房新社から刊行された岸川真の小説『赫獣』（かくじゅう）は、そのタイミングを特別意識して書かれたものではない。 だが著者が数年前から温めていたというこの作品は、たとえば私のような、特撮怪獣映画で育ってきた人間にとっては「これだよこれ！」と思わせるに十分なものだった。 そして試写の始まった『ゴジラGODZILLA』を実際に見ることで、その「これだよこれ！」という感覚は、海の向こうの映画製作者たちの＜ゴジラ愛＞のこだわりとも重なっていたことを知り、嬉しくなった。(本文より） 切通理作の「映画の友よ」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/risaku.html

Acclaimed journalist Randall Sullivan follows Russell Poole, a highly decorated LAPD detective who in 1997 was called to investigate a controversial cop-on-cop shooting, eventually to discover that the officer killed was tied to Marion “Suge” Knight’s notorious gangsta rap label, Death Row Records. During his investigation, Poole came to realize that a growing cadre of black officers were allied not only with Death Row, but with the murderous Bloods street gang. And incredibly, Poole began to uncover evidence that at least some of these “gangsta cops” may have been involved in the murders of rap superstars Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur.

On the Frontlines of the Television War is the story of Yasutsune "Tony" Hirashiki's 10 years in Vietnam - beginning when he arrived in 1966 as a young freelancer with a 16mm camera but without a job or the slightest grasp of English and ending in the hectic fall of Saigon in 1975 when he was literally thrown on one of the last flights out. His memoir has all the exciting tales of peril, hardship, and close calls as the best of battle memoirs but it is primarily a story of very real and yet remarkable people: the soldiers, the reporters, and the photographers.

At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.

Splatter Capital shows how a subgenre of cinematic horror has developed a unique perspective on the cycles of capitalism. It argues that the messy brand of horror mobilized in gore or "splatter" films is extremely responsive to the internal contradictions that threaten the future sustainability of capitalist accumulation. And, while responding to the prospect of that end, splatter promotes an extant truth: capitalist accumulation is and always has been a nightmare of systematized bloodshed.

Designers Don’t Read is a love song to graphic design and graphic designers. Austin Howe is a creative director, writer, advocate, and cheerleader for design - but not a designer. He believes in the "wonder and exuberance of someone who gets paid - by clients to do what he loves". Howe places immense value on curiosity and passion to help designers develop a point of view, a strong voice. He explores the creative process and conceptualization, and delves into what to do when inspiration is lacking.

Why is every film or tv programme a sequel or a remake? Why are people so f***ing hung up about swearing? Why do the asterisks in that sentence make it okay? Why do so many people want to stop other people doing things, and how can they be stopped from stopping them? These and many other questions trouble David Mitchell. Join him on a tour of the absurdities of modern life - from Ryanair to Richard III, Downton Abbey to phone etiquette, UKIP to hot dogs made of cats.

長崎を舞台とし、吉永小百合演じる主人公のもとに原爆で死んだ、二宮和也演じ る息子が現れる……という内容であることは、事前告知で知らされていた。 母が、原爆および日本の敗戦３年後になって、それまでどこか諦めきれないでい た息子のことを諦めようと決心したタイミングで、息子の亡霊が現れることも、 劇場で幾度も見た予告編で知っていた。 そして、息子がかつて恋仲だった黒木華演じる女性の幸せを願う気持ちと、彼女 に伴侶となる新恋人が現れることには複雑な思いを持つ葛藤が母子の間で話し合 われることも、内容紹介に書かれていた。 つまりそれは、映画の方向性が、死者の事はいつか諦め、前に進んでいく前段階 としての「敗戦直後」の時間を描いた映画だと、容易に推測できる。（本文より)切通理作の「映画の友よ」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/risaku.html

With intricate harmonies, symphonic structures, and wide-eyed lyrics that explored life's most transcendent joys and deepest sorrows, songs like "In My Room", "God Only Knows", and "Good Vibrations" forever expanded the possibilities of pop songwriting.

¿Qué es y para qué sirve la cultura? Más allá de definiciones simplistas e inveteradas que hacen de ella ora el mero producto intelectual y artístico de la élite, ora la manifestación de la humanidad en sentido antropológico, este iluminador ensayo pone el foco en la dimensión colectiva de los fenómenos culturales, es decir, en la relevancia social que, con independencia de consideraciones personales, nos involucra a todos, pues ¿qué sentido tiene si no nos ayuda a pensar y hacer posible un mundo mejor?
