In Reply to: Ozu's "Early Summer:" a masterpiece. posted by tinear on November 3, 2005 at 13:59:39:
and 15 years later I'm still here ( ! )While the quiet pace of Ozu's immediate Post-war world is harder to find, and I wasn't here in 1950 to compare then-with-now, there's still a level of charm that isn't hard to find
If I can paraphrase a Woody Allen line; "Just because you were born in the USA doesn't mean you grew up in a Norman Rockwell painting"
And the same with Ozu; the kids in his films don't pull each others hair at the dinner table and have fistfights over who's turn it is to do the dishes (not on camera, anyway!)Not to belittle Ozu's films in the least, they remain timeless and wonderful
