My rating: 5/10

One man's long, arduous road to recovery after stepping on a pin.

Shukujo Wa Nani O Wasureta Ka (What Did The Lady Forget?, 1937)

"That's something you don't understand yet, Setsuko. It so happens that some men treat their wives badly, but that's not a good thing. Wives should be respected."

Film: Tokyo Story (1953) Language: Japanese Subtitles: English

Director: Yasujirō Ozu Producer: Takeshi Yamamoto Writer: Kōgo Noda Screenplay: Kōgo Noda, Yasujirō Ozu Cast: Chishū Ryū, Chieko Higashiyama, Setsuko Hara Music: Kojun Saitō Production Design: Tatsuo Hamada Costume: Taizô Saitô Cinematography: Yūharu Atsuta Editor: Yoshiyasu Hamamura Production: Shôchiku Eiga Distributor: Shôchiku Eiga

Description: Tokyo Story is a 1953 Japanese drama film directed by Yasujirō Ozu. It tells the story of an aging couple who travel to Tokyo to visit their grown children. The film contrasts the behavior of their children, who are too busy to pay them much attention, and their widowed daughter-in-law, who treats them with kindness. Released in Japan in 1953, it did not immediately gain international recognition and was considered "too Japanese" to be marketable by Japanese film exporters. It was screened in London in 1957 and won the inaugural Sutherland Trophy the following year, and received praise from US film critics after a 1972 screening in New York City. Tokyo Story is widely regarded as Ozu's masterpiece and is often cited as one of the greatest films ever made. In 2012, it was voted the best film of all time in a poll of film directors by Sight & Sound magazine. Tokyo Story was inspired by the 1937 American film Make Way for Tomorrow, directed by Leo McCarey.
