Gisaburō Sugii (杉井ギサブロー) (né le 20 août 1940 à Numazu, préfecture de Shizuoka, Japon) est un animateur et réalisateur d’anime japonais, qui a principalement travaillé au sein des studios Mushi Production et Group TAC. Ses œuvres les plus connues sont Train de nuit dans la Voie lactée et Le Dit du Genji.

Biography

Gisaburo Sugii est embauché à 18 ans par le Toei Dōga (devenu Tōei animation depuis) en tant qu’animateur, et il y fera la connaissance d’Osamu Tezuka. Il effectue ses premiers travaux sur Le Serpent blanc, le premier film d’animation en couleur du Japon. Puis, Tezuka ayant fondé son propre studio – Mushi Production – en 1962, il le rejoint et travaillera sur la plupart des projets de la compagnie en tant que directeur de l’animation ou réalisateur ; par exemple, Astro le petit robot, Goku no Daibōken ou encore La Belladone de la tristesse. Il fonde néanmoins le studio Group TAC dès 1968 avec Atsumi Tashiro et réalise son premier film en 1974 : Jack et le Haricot magique. Il y connaîtra ses plus grands succès, grâce notamment à ses adaptations de manga (Touch, Nine) et surtout à deux adaptations d’œuvres littéraires japonaises : Train de nuit dans la Voie lactée et Le Dit du Genji. Le premier lui rapportera d’ailleurs le prix Noburō Ōfuji.

Although the film's story is rooted in the familiar fairy tale of the same name, this version does add a few new characters and plot twists. The tale starts out in the manner that most of us are accustomed to—Jack resides with his mother in a small house out in the country. Being very poor, they eventually find themselves forced to sell their cow, which has stopped giving milk. Jack runs into a mysterious man on the way into town and trades the cow for a handful of "magic" beans. Jack's mother is not very thrilled with him and ends up throwing the beans out the window.

Jeanne and Jean are happy newlyweds in a rural village. Their idyll is promptly shattered when Jeanne, on her wedding night, is raped in a ritual deflowering by the local baron and his lackeys. She returns to Jean terrified and in pain, and he calms her, saying, "Let us forget everything in the past". She begins to see visions of a phallic-headed spirit encouraging her to take revenge on the baron; meanwhile, the couple's fortunes rise even as famine strikes the village and the baron raises taxes to fund his war effort. Jean is made tax collector, and the baron cuts off his hand as punishment when he cannot extract enough money from the village. After another visit from the spirit, Jeanne takes out a large loan from an usurer and sets herself up in the same trade, eventually parlaying it into becoming the true power in the village.
