Carmen Comes Home at Japan Society

カルメン故郷に帰る (Karumen Kokyo ni Kaeru)

Japan Society’s first Monthly Classics screening of the season kicks off with a restoration of Japan’s first color film. In this breezy musical comedy, exotic dancer Lily Carmen (an irresistible Hideko Takamine) returns to her quiet countryside home from the big city in grand fashion, immediately causing a stir as she frolics and sings among the town’s green fields in colorful, revealing outfits with her equally carefree sidekick Maya (Toshiko Kobayashi). Both a subtle satire on the influence of postwar American culture and a piece of lighthearted female-centric escapism, Carmen Comes Home endures as one of director Keisuke Kinoshita’s most beloved films. Screening in recognition of Shochiku’s 120th anniversary.

1951, 86 min., DCP, color, in Japanese with English subtitles. Directed by Keisuke Kinoshita. With Hideko Takamine, Shuji Sano, Chishu Ryu, Kuniko Igawa, Takeshi Sakamoto, Toshiko Kobayashi.

Time:Friday, September 4, 7 PM
Location:
Japan Society
333 East 47th Street
New York, NY 10017
Tickets: $12/$9 seniors & students/$5 Japan Society members

For more information, come to the Baruch Study Abroad during designated walk-in hours.

Information Session: National and Prestigious Fellowships and Scholarships

Nationally competitive fellowships and scholarships can help you fund your study abroad or internships abroad. For more information, contact Fellowships@baruch.cuny.edu. Baruch students who currently receive Federal Pell Grants may be eligible to apply for the Gilman International Scholarship and similar nationally competitive scholarships. Many study abroad sponsors themselves offer limited financial aid for qualified students. Through a generous gift from the C.V. Starr Foundation, Baruch students who study away for a semester may apply for a Starr Study Abroad Fellowship. Early planning is the key. With certain restrictions, students may use their federal and New York State financial aid to study abroad.We encourage you to look at the section How Do I Finance My Study Abroad? that will provide you with more details about these important matters.
