| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study has examined the influence of the early talkie film production company P.C.L. (later the film company Toho) on the Japanese film industry between 1933 and 1938, in terms of modern working conditions and film styles, and has shown how P.C.L. initiated several innovations that helped industrialise and consolidate the Japanese film industry, such as for instance the adoption of a Western style model of production.
The results of which were presented at international conferences and published in academic papers. Furthermore, a publishing contract was signed with Edinburgh University Press for a full-length book on the topic of P.C.L. and the Japanese film industry during the 1930s, due for publication in 2025.

このプロジェクトで行った、映画製作場の視点から映画史を巡る研究は今までに日本ではあまりされておらず、映画研究の中では非常に注目すべき大きな一歩と言える。またアカデミアの世界だけではなく、国際映画祭を通して、幅広く海外の映画界において日本の戦前映画史を広めることができたインパクトがある研究と言える。さらに、1930年代のP.C.L.と日本の映画産業に関する長編研究は、2025年末にエジンバラ大学出版局から出版される予定であり、この種のものとしては初の長編研究となる。
