Ā
Yasijiro Ozu'sĀ hugely influential award-winning masterpiece,Ā Late SpringĀ is a tender meditation on family politics, sacrifice and the status quo. Noiko (Setsuko Hara), and her father, Professor Somiya (Chishu Ryu), live together in perfect harmony but old certainties are put at risk when an interfering aunt raises the question of marriage. Introducing Ozu's popular Noriko character,Ā Late SpringĀ poignantly examines the gradual compromise between modernity and tradition.
Against the backdrop of depression-era Japan, Ozu's first sound filmĀ The Only SonĀ is an affecting drama which observes a single-parent only-child relationship from the mother's perspective. Otsune Nonomiya (Choko Lida) works long hours in a silk factory to fund her son Ryosuke's college education in Tokyo. But when she visits him to see his new life she finds some very startling surprises. Featuring Chishu Ryu as the teacher who convinces Otsune to part with Ryosuke,Ā The Only SonĀ is a powerful tale of sacrifice and hope.
