It’s that time of the…decade again. And we’ve got international amateur athletic competition fever! In honor of the return of the Olympic Games to Japan, we’re watching one of the great documentaries on the subject: director Kon Ichikawa’s lyrical vision of the 1964 Tokyo games.

 

If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing David Cronenberg’s The Brood(1979).
