Any list of Japan’s greatest screenplay writers would feature Shinobu Hashimoto near or at the top. This memoir, focusing on his collaborations with Akira Kurosawa, a gifted scenarist in his own right, offers an indispensable insider account and invaluable insights into the unique process that is writing for the screen. Now in paperback, Compound Cinematics also stands as a moving reckoning of sorts.

The vast majority of Kurosawa’s oeuvre was filmed from screenplays that the director co-wrote with a stable of stellar scenarists. Among these was the author, who caught the filmmaker’s attention with a script that eventually turned into Rashomon, and who went on to play an integral part in developing and writing two of the grandmaster’s crowning jewels—Ikiru and Seven Samurai—and other cineaste favorites.

The late Shinobu Hashimoto (1918-2018) penned numerous films of note for other directors as well, including Harakiri for Masaki Kobayashi, Mount Hakkoda for Shiro Moritani, and Village of the Eight Tombs for Yoshitaro Nomura.

Shinobu Hashimoto is an award-winning screen-writer and film producer, best known across the globe for his collaborations with Akira Kurosawa. Born in 1918, in southern Japan, Hashimoto was only a middle-school graduate before he began to enter the world of film. His debut work was an immediate critical success in the form of the screenplay for Roshamon.

Through the years he went on to work on the following movies among his more than 50 films:

Roshamon
Ikuru -To Live-
The Seven Samurai
Throne of Blood
The Hidden Fortress
Paul Newman's The Outrage
