Something Like an Autobiography : ウィキペディア英語版
Something Like an Autobiography

is the memoir of Japanese film director Akira Kurosawa. It was published as a book in 1981 and the English translation by Audie E. Bock appeared the following year.
==Sources==
In 1980, inspired by the memoir of one of his heroes, Jean Renoir, Kurosawa began to publish in serial form his autobiography, entitled ''Gama no abura'' (An Oily Toad). In English translations, the book's subtitle ''Something Like an Autobiography'' (自伝のようなもの, ''Jiden no you na mono'') is normally used instead. The book deals with the period from the director's birth to his winning the Golden Lion for ''Rashomon'' from the Venice Film Festival in 1951; the period from 1951 through 1980 is not covered. The title of the book is a reference to a legend according to which, if one places a deformed toad in a box full of mirrors, it will become so afraid of its own reflection that it will begin to sweat, and this sweat allegedly had medicinal properties. Kurosawa compared himself to the toad, nervous about having to contemplate, through the process of writing his life story, his own multiple "reflections."
