I decided to make a mark here

To remind myself
that no matter how old you are, you can't treat your parents like this...
Another thing: is adulthood really that scary?
The old couple in it can always easily forgive the indifference of their children and become self-sufficient. A comforting answer
, isn't it ? When a certain age is reached, they can ascend to such a state? Then when their children reach such old age, can they also wake up to these neglects
that are too late to remedy...and then regret?
Does it mean that as we get older, each has its own life and continues logically? It's
horrible...
can we not be apart?
Even if it must be a must, can we not be so decisive?
And almost perfect like noriko There are people in unspeakable pain too.
Life threw me a terrifying bomb when I just touched the surface of it.

    The first is to praise the composition, coupled with the low-position photography, the picture is beautiful and full of tension. The second is casting. Setsuko Hara's real face is that kind of gentleness to others, while the eldest daughter is mean and acerbic. The second daughter is ignorant of the world, and the old man and the old lady are also very close to life. When I watched it, I thought of my grandparents. Others said that their sons were doing well, and they were very promising, but when they went to the city where my sons lived, my aunt was basically taking care of them, and the sons were too busy. , suffering from life, I can only accompany them on weekends. After my aunt left, I usually go out to eat. The whole old man was miserable. The last meal he went home was eaten by his second son. The child wants to support but the parent does not wait, I hope that I can use this article to wake up myself and treat my parents kindly.

    Noriko herself seems to have stopped growing after her husband was recruited, and she is still so kind in her heart.

Tokyo Story quotes

  • Kyoko: [after the rest of the family had left] I think they should have stayed a bit longer.

    Noriko: But they're busy.

    Kyoko: They're selfish. Demanding things and leaving like this.

    Noriko: They have their own affairs.

    Kyoko: But you have yours too. They're selfish.

    Noriko: But Kyoko...

    Kyoko: Wanting her clothes right after her death. I felt so sorry for poor mother. Even strangers would have been more considerate!

    Noriko: But look Kyoko. At your age I thought so too. But children do drift away from their parents. A woman has her own life, apart from her parents, when she becomes Shige's age. She meant no harm I'm sure. They have to look after their own lives.

    Kyoko: I wonder: I won't ever be like that. Then what's the point of family?

    Noriko: But children become like that, gradually.

    Kyoko: Then... you, too?

    Noriko: I may become like that in spite of myself.

    Kyoko: Isn't life disappointing?

    Noriko: Yes, it is.

  • Shukichi Hirayama: [talking to Tomi about leaving the hotel early] Anyway, this place is meant for the younger generation.
