Early Spring

Japan Yasujiro Ozu

Another masterpiece. From 1956...at the height of his powers.

Here we deal with marital infidelity and disillusionment with life in general. The characters play their roles, suffer their losses and carry on. What else is there? It is our fate. We endure.

All his normal tics are in place. After Tokyo Story this may be his greatest film.
