Discuss family and marriage relationships in an era where people's ideas are gradually modernized. The heroine's inner world is too good, the kind of concern and reluctance to her father, the rejection, hesitation and ultimately helpless acceptance when faced with the traditional imposition of her marriage, and her changing attitude towards modern relationships between men and women , Ozu expresses through different scenes, lighting and small objects in the scene, each heroine's lens conveys the ripples of her inner world. (When Noriko was dissatisfied with her aunt's arrangement, the aunt's face was a close-up during the conversation, while the back-hitting Noriko was a mid-range perspective of the two, showing Noriko's rejection of her aunt's arrangement and her sense of distance from marriage . And when Noriko talks to her father, the front and back are close-ups of the faces of the two people, showing the father-daughter relationship that the two have been relying on for many years.) What is more interesting is that Noriko, who rejects traditional marriage arrangements, also has She has a traditional view on marriage, love and family, but her attitude has changed a little in the end. On the other hand, Noriko's arranged future husband is absent in the whole film, and it is doubtful whether Noriko will be happy because of this. And although his father also hoped that Noriko would marry out, so that he could remarry in the second half of his life, but at the end, when he returned home alone, he was extremely lonely. Ozu threw the question of marriage and family to the audience, but I think the answer is open, just like the mutual dependence between Noriko and her father, it has become an inextricable relationship under social stereotypes or new traditions, because it It's so real.
