On May 19, 1927, pilot Charles A. "Slim" Lindbergh (James Stewart) tries to rest in a hotel near Roosevelt Field on Long Island, New York. He has been waiting for a week for the rain to stop so he can attempt the first successful nonstop solo transatlantic flight from New York to Paris. While Lindbergh tries to fall asleep, his friend Frank Mahoney (Bartlett Robinson) guards his hotel room door from reporters who have also been waiting for a break in the weather. Unable to sleep, Lindbergh reminisces about his recent days as an airmail pilot flying from St. Louis to Chicago.

Dreadfulness of the light of a hand mirror, a feeling of tension which pulls up a control lever, and the movie kept in my young heart ...


[Nishijin Shinjyu]starring:Yoshie Shimamura

Director:Youichi Takabayashi

I participated in school days as a photography assistant at the ATG work "the Nishijin Shinjyu"(Nishijin=An area famous for the textiles in Kyoto ) (Shinjyu=a lovers' suicide)(Director of Yoichi Takabayashi). (I taked the one scene on this movie.) The place is the Honno-ji hall. The image was the last scene of the sash of a kimono having fallen and going. It is a scene of the bird's-eye view currently printed on the left-hand side of the package photograph. It had a camera (arri 2C)by hand, I rode on the point of a long pillar, and as I crawled on about one hour , I was shooting them. (It was a time of my being still 21 years old)
