Many people compare "Good Morning" with his other "I was born to meet" (I was born, but), the latter has long been included in the world of film history masterpieces, while the evaluation of "Good Morning" is far Far inferior. Because compared with the serious and profound moral themes in "Born to Encounter", "Good Morning" is just a comical sketch of customs. But Ozu's talent as a comedy writer in this work is simply culmination, full of indescribable laughter. This kind of smile has neither ironic sharpness, nor self-deprecating emptiness, nor is it a nonsense noise. It is just the natural relaxation of the cheeks, full of happiness, and eating smile during the movie watching process. So pure, so perfect.
Po is so cute! All thank you were replaced by I love you. And when they shaved their noses.
Sugimura Haruko is really a lovely actress, her collaboration with Ozu is so perfect, and she understands Ozu's comedy so thoroughly. Whether it's the eldest daughter who plays the old man in "Tokyo Story", or the wife of the president in "Good Morning", or the teacher's old girl who missed the chance to get married in "The Taste of Saury", or Kato Shigeru in "Autumn in Kobayakawa's Family" . She doesn't look good, but her face is so comical that people can't help but look at it.
