Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Yasujiro Ozu's delicate melodramas (this one dates from his finest period, 1951) avoid any sense of cliche in their restrained, sometimes painfully subtle study of family relationships.

fresh:
No one shrug or sigh or smile is more or less dispensible than another gesture, which explains why minor characters are so important in Ozu films.
