YUH 50 - Eli Leckinger - Japanese Culture

How many teenagers do you know have taught themself the Japanese language?  Such is the passion our latest guest has for the culture of Japan,  and Japanese cinema in particular.  In this hour Eli introduces us the different eras of the Godzilla legend.  We also take a deep dive into the movies of Japan that do NOT include a 6 story tall reptile,  like the "Returner" starring Miyamoto (Takeshi Kaneshiro), Anne Suzuki and,  last but not least,  the enigmatic Mizoguchi (Goro Kishitani).  Finally,  Eli reveals that he is working on his own book that brings the mythology of feudal Japan to the surface.  It was a pleasure to have Eli Liev Leckinger on the show!
