225. Late spring (1949)


Country: Japan
Directed by Yasujiro Ozu

One of the greatest Ozu movies, among these that gave him a reputation of one of the best directors of all time, Late spring is a masterpiece that is really hard to be analysed with words. Once more, while you watch it, you are amazed of its simplicity that is able to incorporate complex social ideological comments, of how touching it is to the point that makes you weep, of how powerfull the direction is with every detail carefully calculated, how captivative is the film as well the face and smile of its leading actress. Who cares for fancy scenes, intense editing, sex and violence, impressive stories: the action here is umbeatable even if seems that nothing special is happening
