Movie plot:

The autumn of life is rich in color. Although it is not as colorful as summer, it is better than it has connotations and presents a variety of tastes. And the mixture of various flavors seems to be the biggest feeling that Ozu's films bring to me. This film is Ozu's penultimate film. The...

I fell in love with the pictures of Ozu's films more and more, like moving pictures. Ozu's pictures are either still lifes, or a few moving points are placed in the still lifes. Even if there are two people, Ozu will try to make the movements of the two people consistent, and try to make the...

Li Zhizhong only played the role of a small farmer in this film, and he appeared at the end, just washing his handkerchief by the river, and a few short lines of dialogue. Never in a hurry. Qiuzi (played by the original Setsuko) is a widowed woman living with a child. Although there are relatives...

Ozu's very late works. At this time, Ozu's style has become more and more perfect. Although this film is not the most famous among Ozu's works, the artistic achievements of this film have reached the peak of Ozu... These consistent skills are still respecting and restoring life in this film. Life...

I have also watched a few of Ozu's films, but because his themes are similar and his style is unified, he will forget them if he doesn't record them, so let's take a few notes. In contrast, "Relenting" (Zhang Ailing's code, what is left is love, but it is not necessary to keep it): the father died,...

I watched this Ozu color film quietly at 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, which is perfect and exquisite! "Autumn of the Xiaobayakawa Family" is much more engaging than "Autumn Harmony". Emotional expression is contained but not revealed to the point, and even death is so calm and calm. The...
