SFBG—Taro Goto Interview With Kiyoshi Kurosawa

Taro Goto, Assistant Director of the upcoming San Francisco International Asian-American Film Festival, was kind enough to help me out with translation services recently when I interviewed Kumakiri Kazuyoshi (Green Mind, Metal Bats) for this year's San Francisco IndieFEST. Now Taro's turned around to show me how an interview should be conducted by engaging my fave rave Kiyoshi Kurosawa in a discussion about Clint Eastwood, his Oscar-nominated Flags of Our Fathers and Sands of Iwo Jima, and the problematic Japanese concept of gyokusai.
