Cinema that speaks to the soul.

Trevor Johnston, Time Out

I'm not the world's biggest Ozu fan, but this late work is one of his finest.

Fred Camper, Chicago Reader

The struggles between the generations pre-date the clashes of the late nineteen-sixties. However, Ozu's extraordinary sensitivity makes them deeply dramatic, all the more so because these gentle, reflective persons seem to have led unruffled lives.

Nora Sayre, New York Times
