In the 24th year of the Showa era in 1949, a Japanese black and white film in the same year as the New China, directed by Yasujiro Ozu, is a warm family drama.
The professor's father slowly said to his daughter Noriko, who was dependent on him and did not want to marry: "You are about to start a new life, and it needs you and Mishima to manage it together, which does not include me, this is life and human beings. An order of history. Marriage may not mean happiness at first, and it is a wrong idea to expect sudden happiness. Happiness is something you need to wait for, and you have to create it yourself. Marriage does not mean happiness. Happiness lies in sharing The tempering of the new life, maybe it will come in one or two years, maybe even five or ten years, happiness can only be obtained through hard work, and only then can you call it a real couple."
This kind of truth about marriage and happiness has been told so early, and most of us may not know it until many years later, which is really frustrating with hindsight.
The father said to his daughter who finally got married: "You will definitely be a good wife, you will definitely be happy", tearful.
It feels miserable that a father is willing to be alone with no one to take care of for his daughter's growth and happiness. Did Japan not have such a form of marriage in that era? If it is not a solution to many problems.
Slow-flowing warmth, healing and sadness.
The heroine's bright smile is irresistible.
