About the Book

This is fully revised and updated edition of the best-selling guide to Japan's most prolific and successful film director. This third pressing of "Agitator" features a new and expanded 16-page colour section, completely updated DVD information, and several brand new reviews of Takashi Miike films that were unavailable for coverage at the time of the book's initial production. There is no sign of any slow-down of interest in this critically-acclaimed book, which has been described as: "An essential purchase for anyone wanting to know where cinema is heading in the 21st century." "Audition", "Dead or Alive", "Ichi the Killer", and "Visitor Q" - These films have amazed, stunned, delighted and shocked audiences the world over, garnering critical acclaim for their Japanese director: Takashi Miike. Now one of the most talked-about filmmakers in the world, Miike's international fan base is constantly growing. Screenings and retrospectives of his work in the UK, USA and Europe are frequent. More and more of his films are released to great success on DVD, while Miike has become a regular and award-winning guest at leading international film festivals. "Agitator - The Cinema of Takashi Miike" is the world's first study of this exciting director's complete work. The book also contains Takashi Miike's own diary on the making of his controversial film "Ichi the Killer", published in English for the first time ever. Plus a career-spanning interview. Ground-breaking, exhaustive and fully endorsed by Takashi Miike himself, "Agitator - The Cinema of Takashi Miike" is the definitive word on the most talked-about filmmaker of the decade.
