My friend cried after watching this movie. I didn't cry because he watched Ozu less and I watched more. The feeling that I want to cry is usually the basic feeling of watching Ozu movies, but if I watch too much, crying is the past...

Setsuko Shenyanhara, this slow and tranquil play is almost her one-man show! This time, Noriko is no longer indifferent and smiling, but has emotional changes, joys and sorrows, so it is more vivid. Or the standard Ozu story, parent-child relationship, interesting Ozu-style humor, conventional expression, low-camera, fixed-camera, head-to-head and so on. After thinking about it after reading it, the theme is not to follow the tradition and describe the scenery of the world, but to bring a more...

"The one we married back then was someone else's daughter." Setsuko Hara is so beautiful! And it is youthful, sunny, healthy, and sturdy beauty. Since Noriko (how is it called Noriko) got married, she has been wiping away her tears until her father sent his relatives home to peel the apple and put it down by himself. Setsuko Hara, the never-married "daughter forever", in the film, the bride's dress is absolutely beautiful, like a person walking down the most exquisite Ukiyo-e. Her best friend...

Marrying a daughter. Setsuko Hara was full of smiles from the moment she appeared on the stage, but gradually she couldn't smile as the marriage was urged, and tears were in her eyes. Then, after the night talk with her father, she smiled again in tears. The biggest emotional catharsis in the whole film only ends there, restraint and forbearance, calm and dilute. In the narrative, irrelevant characters are omitted, and the theme of marriage is marriage, but the groom does not appear. It seems...

[Archive Shochiku Film Festival] So "Autumn Harmony" is a companion piece to this one, and Setsuko Hara's interpretation of her daughter is even better. Li Zhizhong's father is definitely the light of East Asian males. If I have such a father, I can't bear to see him die alone...｜Ps. I laughed so hard when I joked about...

Last week, I revisited several films that Ozu and Hara Setsuko collaborated on. It’s strange to say that his films are all so slow, but I don’t get tired of watching them several times. Setsuko Hara did just the right thing about his unwillingness to leave his lonely old father and unwilling to have a new person to take care of him. The ending is a little O'Henry, the father's love is really...

The story is told slowly with a restrained but melodious long shot, which is light and touching. Ozu's marriage plot, Electra plot, and daughter plot are completely integrated into these 100 minutes. The best Ozu. The best Harako. PS: Why do you shed tears every time you watch the part of "Peeling an Apple"? ....

Watching the movie @Film Forum: Although it is the first time to watch it (ashamed...), I think Ozu is an addictive director! I think Director Hou is right. Late Spring is the kind of movie that everyone understands, but those who watch it deeply will watch it deeply and deeply. Extremely powerful control, extremely resistant to scrutiny, and the heroine's smile is extremely sad. The evaluation is also very good. The low angle of view is so delicious! PS. The heroine's clothes look...

Every place is full of delicacy, whether it is the father and daughter's feelings for each other, or the details of every detail in life, just like grinding tofu, do it carefully and carefully. The simplest, most life-like, stop-motion-scenario textbook, the forerunner of cross-cutting character dialogue. Ozu said, I'm just a tofu...
