One of Ozu's most lively dramas, with surprisingly many eating scenes, plump and healthy women nourished by a comfortable life, can be described as a beautiful expression of fireworks in the world. The choice of marriage, the fate of the parents, and the embarrassment of the heroine are also compared to many viewers. Thinking about our life, there are always a few embarrassing things that are not so uncomfortable but deep enough. Ordinary life is like the neat and cramped composition of Ozu,...

Probably the funniest one I've ever seen in Ozu. A family of three generations and seven lives in the same house, relatives from afar come to visit their parents, a large group of children come to play at home on weekends, daughters and friends are divided into married and unmarried camps and bicker with each other, and the neighborhood is harmonious and happy. It's just that no matter how good friends are, they will gradually become estranged, and no matter how big the family will be, it will...

It's another Kamakura film, the characters and "Late Spring" are very lace, and it's also a matter for the older daughter of the professor's family to find a partner, but the heroine of this film said that "it's not that I can't get married, but that I don't want to marry yet", which is better than "Late Spring". The character of Late Spring is worried about his father, so don't marry a lot stronger. The 900 yen cake is expensive, and it really shouldn't be eaten by children. The photography is...

In fact, I don't like this one. The first half seems to be too complicated, with relatives, girl's talk, and education for the next generation. The plot twists in the second half are slightly abrupt, and it ends with the enduring Ozu-style forbearance. But some of these women have a very good view of...

"I always say I only make tofu because I'm a tofu maker. One person can't make too many kinds of films. Even though my films all seem to be the same, I always try to express in each film Something new. I'm like a painter, always painting the same...

I'm a little surprised by the number of moving shots in it, most of them are transitions, but the last shot is really brilliant: the wheat field has the meaning of absorbing all the joys and sorrows, and the moving shots emphasize the passage of time. Together, it is an excellent expression of "life continues". I think of the panning mirror after the protagonist of "Love in the Wind and Dust" cried. The part where the father sat in a daze in front of the railway tracks the next day after...

Although it is still the theme of marrying a woman, more attention has been paid to the social and economic problems behind marriage and family disintegration. After Noriko got married, she could no longer subsidize her family, so she met her sister-in-law to compete to save money; the rise of a metropolis like Tokyo and the concentration of employment opportunities—Noriko’s friend said that I always thought you should live in a bungalow in Tokyo and speak English, but the doctor Only in the...

Kasa Chi-chan became black-haired and shaved, from Setsuko Hara's father to the eldest brother, but there was no sense of disobedience at all! Unlike the late spring, daughters have more of their own ideas to go against their parents and marry the person they like. Although I always felt that the change was blunt later, I liked Ozu's delicate description of daily life and the interaction between family members. Just saw some commenters recently saying that no one lives like this in Japan Ozu's...

The subject of marrying a daughter is really not to my taste, and Setsuko Hara is not my favorite, but Tokyo Story is my favorite. The emotion of this film is incomprehensible. But the life under the lens of Ozu is really delicate. When I look at it in the future, I think it is a colorful Ozu, those Japanese-style houses. Speaking of another characteristic of Ozu, I don't like it when the task speaks to the camera. But Ozu always touches my heart slowly and casually,...

2014.12.12. Revisit. 4.5. The difference between men and women, the alienation of girlfriends after marriage, and the troubles of boys. The fierce Kasa Chizu, Noriko who did not marry because of her parents but because of the "new woman", "It's better to say what's on your mind" Haruko Sugimura learned that her son was leaving and Noriko said I would So dazzling! Dad sat by the railway and watched the clouds. Birds and cars in Tokyo. No matter what film I watch, there are laughs and tears.
