Our Feature Presentation curates an assortment of pages scanned from over 70 vintage Japanese cinema pamphlets, known as 映画パンフレット (Eiga panfuretto) ranging from 1950-2000.

Sold during a film’s run, these pamphlets typically included interviews with the cast and director, production notes, behind-the-scenes details and film stills. During the boom of Japanese cinema and imported Hollywood films in the 1950s, such programs became standard for most major releases and collectible items among cinephiles.

Ranging from Bresson to Fulci, The Evil Dead to The Virgin Suicides, each page highlights the unique and vibrant design of these pamphlets, showcasing rare film stills and production imagery.
