Tokyo Story
Tokyo monogatari Japon 1953 | Yasujiro Ozu | vostEN | 136’ | digital | Cast : Setsuko Hara, Chishu Ryu, Kyoko Kagawa
> 4K restoration from Shochiku Studio
The elderly Shukishi and his wife, Tomi, take the long journey from their small seaside village to visit their adult children in Tokyo. Their elder son, a doctor, and their daughter, a hairdresser, don't have much time to spend with their aged parents, and so it falls to Noriko, the widow of their younger son who was killed in the war, to keep her in-laws company.
« In this exquisite merging of specific and universal, infinite and infinitesimal, Tokyo Story perhaps most clearly illuminates that Ozu is not the most Japanese of filmmakers, but the most human. » (Slant Magazine)
« Tokyo Story – routinely hailed as one of the best films ever made – can never be forgotten once seen, and Setsuko Hara's exquisite performance is surely a vital part of what makes this film Ozu’s masterpiece. Hara’s desperately polite smile, her dignity and the quiver of heartbreak in her voice are absolutely captivating. I defy anyone to watch this film and not feel simply overwhelmed with a kind of love for Hara – however absurd that may sound. » (Guardian)
