    A historic treasure
  

*by H***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2018*

A family drama with no particular plot centered on an extended family living in Kamakura outside of Tokyo. The men are at their offensive worst ("You! My tea!" to a wife or work subordinate), the wives hold down the fort and serve their husbands meals, ready their baths, greet them off or welcome them home, and the boys are extreme brats. People are never still; they're always on the move, greeting, talking, jesting and laughing. They seem to spare no expense on meals and entertainment. The viewer can feel the energy that ran throughout post-war Japan, and since the boys would be in their late 70s in 2018, the generations of people depicted in this film are mostly the ones who would go on to shape modern-day Japan. Ozu's ending smashes the image of the extended family living under one roof, upon which the entire movie was based, and seems to warn of a future Japan comprised primarily of condo-dwelling nuclear families. A visual historic treasure of family and work life in Japan in the early 1950s. SPOILERMy favorite scene was when Aya was explaining how she had thought Noriko would end up, that is, living a privileged life nearby with a house like this and a garden like that and how, when Aya would visit, she would come out and say, "Hello, how are you?" She actually says this in beautiful English, and as a Japanese, it makes me think how its modern citizens may have retrogressed from these earlier, booming, closer-knit times.

This is my favourite movie by the director. Please use the correct movie jacket. The current image is actually Tokyo Story.

Just a wonderful movie about Japanese family with comedic moments. Feels much more contemporary than the 1950's.
