The Astonishing Work of Tezuka Osamu (Sub)

Editorial Reviews
Product Description
His impact on Manga and Anime is impossible to measure. It was his work that changed the evolutionary path of Japanese animation that today sets it apart from all else. Anime Academy

Known as the god of manga and the father of anime, Tezuka Osamu (1928 1989) has created hundreds of comics, dozens of films, and even some television series (including such internationally beloved shows as ASTRO BOY and KIMBA THE WHITE LION.) His pioneering, unparalleled career is without rival for its extraordinary range of visual styles. Included in this set are some of Osamu s most legendary works, including Pictures at an Exhibition and Legend of the Forest. The former combines 10 individual short vignettes to create stunning visual riffs on classic fine art. But the 30-minute Legend of the Forest is the animator s masterpiece. An epic of forest faeries, sprites, wizards, and animals defending themselves against greedy industrialists bent on destroying nature, the film stylistically traces the evolution of animation from 19th-century etchings, to Disney and Fleischer cartoons, to contemporary anime. The animation in Legend of the Forest is as ravishing and inventive as anything seen in Disney s Fantasia. Kimstim and Kino are proud to release this astonishingly imaginative collection of Osamu s 13 most innovative pieces, many of which are the master s own personal favorites.

Sv: The Astonishing Work of Tezuka Osamu (Sub)

Jag har sett en del av de där filmerna på YouTube och liknande. Rätt roliga grejer. 60-tals-filmerna har väldigt tidstypisk design.

Ethno-postmodernism in an Albert Speer pattern dominates.
