SUMMARY:The Post-War Cinema of Ozu Yasujiro - THE FLAVOUR OF GREEN TEA OVER RICE
DESCRIPTION:Everyday Life in Japan: The Post-War Cinema of Ozu Yasujiro\nCo-presented by The Japan Foundation\, Toronto and The Cinema Studies Institute at the University of Toronto \nInnis Town Hall\, University of Toronto 2 Sussex Ave\, Toronto\, ON M5S 1J5 \nAdmission free\, registration required\, films in Japanese with English subtitles \nNew 4K digital restoration\, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack \n  \n\n \nMarch 8\, 2020 3:00 PM \nThe Flavour of Green Tea over Rice お茶漬の味\nDirected by OZU Yasujiro\, 1952\, 116 min. \nOne of the ineffably lovely domestic sagas made by Yasujiro Ozu at the height of his mastery\, The Flavor of Green Tea over Rice is a sublimely piercing portrait of a marriage coming quietly undone. Secrets and deceptions strain the already tenuous relationship of a childless\, middle-aged couple\, as the wife’s city-bred sophistication bumps up against the husband’s small-town simplicity\, and a generational sea change—in the form of her headstrong\, modern niece—sweeps over their household. The director’s abiding concern with family dynamics receives one of its most spirited treatments\, with a wry\, tender humor and buoyant expansiveness that moves the action from the home into the baseball stadiums\, pachinko parlors\, and ramen shops of postwar Tokyo. \nRETURN TO LIST OF ALL FILMS IN THIS SERIES >  \n  \nCo-Presented by:

In 1959\, Yasujiro Ozu remade his 1934 silent classic A Story of Floating Weeds in color with the celebrated cinematographer Kazuo Miyagawa (Rashomon\, Ugetsu). Setting his later version in a seaside location\, Ozu otherwise preserves the details of his elegantly simple plot wherein an aging actor returns to a small town with his troupe and reunites with his former lover and illegitimate son\, a scenario that enrages his current mistress and results in heartbreak for all. Together\, the films offer a unique glimpse into the evolution of one of cinema’s greatest directors. A Story of Floating Weeds reveals Ozu in the midst of developing his mode of expression; Floating Weeds reveals his distinct style at its pinnacle. In each\, the director captures the joy and sadness in everyday life.   RETURN TO LIST OF ALL FILMS IN THIS SERIES >    Co-Presented by:
