"An Autumn Afternoon"
1962
Directed by Yasujiro Ozu

This profoundly simple and moving film examines changing familial relationships in an increasingly Americanized postwar Tokyo. With his unmistakable and inimitable style, Ozu has created a serenely beautiful film which tells the timeless, moving tale of a father giving up his only daughter in marriage. Both humorous and heartbreaking, An Autumn Afternoon was Ozu's 53rd and last film. Japanese with English subtitles. 112 minutes.
