Description

Sometimes cited as one of the greatest films ever made, Yosujiro Ozu's Tokyo Story is a deceptively simple but poignant family drama. Set in post-war Japan, we get to discuss how this film's themes mirror the country's shifting culture, and we also get to talk at length about Ozu's life, his filmmaking style, and why we love his stories.Where to watch Tokyo StoryLindsay Anderson's review of Tokyo Story from 1957Where to watch Sansho the Bailiff (1954)Where to watch Godzilla (1954)
