      Who says daughters are not as good as men

      The old idea of ​​favoring sons over daughters has to be brought out and criticized again, because Ozu used Zhou Jizhi to express a wrong view in his movie "Late Spring". The film, which is one of Ozu's widely acclaimed works, is about a common topic - the marriage of a daughter.

      Noriko is 27 years old. She is young and beautiful, has a beautiful face, loves to laugh, and has a warm smile. She lives with her father and is not yet married. Therefore, the title of "Late Spring" not only...

      The temper of life

      Even in the films of many famous European and American directors, there are passages that pay tribute to Ozu. It is very subjective. I don't think a mature middle-aged person can refuse the quietness and timelessness of Ozu's films. Life is so trivial, so helpless and so derailed, but there is still some hope, sometimes it is a very faint warmth, sometimes it is a huge loss, sometimes it is an irresistible passage of life, so that the viewer can only spit out one sentence, that's...

      The Taste of Late Spring and Autumn SauryReview

      Late spring is like a root-seeking formula, with a simple and transparent beauty, and Hou Hsiao-hsien also said that the movie likes late spring the most, because it is very transparent. The taste of saury is like the Newton-Raphson iteration method, which gives a more complex solution of family relationships, but it is not as beautiful as an accurate solution. At that time, I went to the French League to see 35 glasses of rum, paying tribute to Ozu's works, so I made up for Ozu's taste of...

      See how I feel in late spring

      I feel that there are many helpless things in life. People can’t always live for themselves. The influence of others on your life is too great. The public opinion of others is enough to determine your life. I think in this movie, I saw a father and daughter who were able to live happily together, but because of worldly vision and values, the daughter reluctantly married a man who didn't know if she could give her happiness, a man she might not love. man. When his daughter got married, the...

      Late spring is the warm wind in April, the scattered petals, the girl's flying skirt corners, and the dancing long hair. Late spring is also the love and worry of the old father. After finally marrying his daughter out, the room instantly became empty. The happy and lost old father silently hung up his clothes and peeled an apple. Wedding, funeral, marriage, a shot, a story....

      On the surface, it seems that the father uses white lies to balance the emotional entanglement between "keeping" and "marrying" in his daughter's heart. In fact, it is a kind of freedom ethic about happiness: that is, an individual's ethical choice depends to a large extent on pre-existing ethics, which is The core of Confucian ethical...

      The look and feel is not as good as Tokyo Story, perhaps I am not as invested as the previous one. It seems that the composition is not as "full" as Tokyo Story. Ozu pursues the realm of "sorrow of things". This film reveals a feeling of helplessness, which makes his father's words "happiness is to wait" seem insincere. Ozu said that he wanted to be bright and not gloomy, but the trend of the character's own destiny made him a little...

      Shôichi Hattori: You sure?

      Noriko Somiya: As the saying goes, when I slice pickled radish, it comes out all strung together.

      Shôichi Hattori: That's a matter of the relative interaction between you and the knife. There's no logical connection between pickled radish and jealousy, now is there?

      Shukichi Somiya: Of course she ate. Food was scarce for so long.

      Shôichi Hattori: At my wedding, I was too filled with gratitude to eat a single rice ball.

    • Masa Taguchi: How can you know how she feels deep inside?
