Early fandom grew around educated urban audiences, who avidly patronized action-packed serials and Universal’s freshly imported films in the 1910s. During the 1920s and 1930s, U.S. cinema continued to attract metropolitan consumers but struggled in the face of Japan’s soaring narrative output. In the years following World War II, movie-goers encountered American films in big cities as well as provincial communities through the Occupationbacked Central Motion Picture Exchange. After the Occupation, U.S. film consumption began to slow down in theaters because of Japanese cinematic competition, but the sites of reception extended into television. The momentum of American cinema revived on the big screen with the rise of the blockbuster, though the years after the 1970s witnessed an intense segmentation of consumer taste. While U.S. cinema culture has become widely available via television, amusement parks, consumer merchandise, and the Internet, the contemporary era has seen renewed challenges mounted by domestic productions and alternative sources of popular entertainment., 本稿は、Hiroshi Kitamura and Keiko Sasagawa, “The Reception of American Cinemain Japan,” Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Literature (literature.oxfordre.com), ed.Paula Rabinowitz (New York: Oxford University Press, 2017) を翻訳、改稿したものである。}, pages = {132--146}, title = {日本におけるアメリカ映画の受容}, volume = {9}, year = {2018} }
