Late Ozu [5 Discs] [Criterion Collection]

Yasujiro Ozu

Overview

Master filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu directed fifty-three feature films over the course of his long career. Yet it was in the final decade of his life, his "old master" phase, that he entered his artistic prime. Centered more than ever on the modern sensibilities of the younger generation, these delicate family dramas are marked by an exquisite formal elegance and emotional sensitivity about birth and death, love and marriage, and all the accompanying joys and loneliness. Along with such better-known films as Floating Weeds and An Autumn Afternoon, these five works illustrate the worldly wisdom of one of cinema's great artists at the height of his powers. Films in the set: Early Spring (1956) Tokyo Twilight (1957) Equinox Flower (1958) Late Autumn (1960) The End of Summer (1961)
