Research Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the activities of the Osaka Branch, Natural Color Cinematograph Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Tenkatsu Osaka) and the activities of Teikoku Kinema Performing Arts Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Tei Kine) in order to placing Osaka in the Japanese film history and to make a more comprehensive and multi-layered view of the film industry in imperial Japan. I will analyze the activities of Tenkatsu Osaka and Teikine specifically in Osaka and Kyushu, colonial Korea and Taiwan which were important movie distribution bases in West Japan. As a result, I will clarify the relationship between Osaka Film Industry and West Japan as well as the colonial markets, and also reconsider the Imperial Japanese Film Industry from a global perspective.
