One of Japan’s most successful scriptwriters of modern times, Nozawa’s work is loved and respected by both public and industry alike. Venice Film Festival Silver Lion winner and well-known living Japanese director Kitano (Beat) Takeshi chose a Nozawa script for his directorial debut - Sono Otoko Kyobo ni Tsuki (Violent Cop). Released from Argentina to Finland and Indonesia to the States, the multi-award winning Violent Cop went on to be acclaimed as a landmark of Japanese and world cinema. Countless Nozawa scripts have become repeat-screening TV drama series, attracting top casts, consistently breaking ratings records, and going on to be remade internationally. |
