I came here to find the “happiness” phrase, but I leave with a bitter taste in the mouth. How awful must be to be forced to marry. And this goes for any culture that treats women as property.

Sounds like you've been conditioned by modern woke ideology and are applying it to another place and time. Have you watched the entire film? This is a beautiful scene. A father telling his daughter about the effort it takes to make a successful marriage. Instead of what we get today: fathers being reduced to moronic jokes. This might be the best marriage advice anyone can give. "Happiness comes only through effort." My mom essentially told me the same thing about her marriage to my dad, and it lasted 51 years until her death.

He said the 2 most truthful things: marriage isn't the means to happiness, (on my view) its something destiny has arranged to mould and test our characters. Secondly, he said to give her filial love now to her husband. Very biblical to cut soul ties.

The daughter, Noriko, had a traumatic slave labor war experience that left her sick and emaciated, so the years back with her father after the war left her clinging to the warmth of her father, who treated her beautifully, regaining her strength and health back in her father's home...

I wish Shukichi, the father, had at least honored Noriko’s feelings, perhaps saying wistfully “I wish we could stay together, too,” before telling her that she and Satake must forge happiness together. For me, it would have made a much more poignant moment. But, perhaps, the fact that he won’t-or can’t-say that underlines the pain of the scene.

It is quite misguiding to judge that gender norm in Japan is exceptionally conservative. At least Ozu himself is arguing us to precisely conceive of the restrictive property of the patriarchic structure, and at the same time, hinting us how the system ramifies a myriad of fragile aspects from individual grievance to the attrition of family values. Moreover, he try to gauge how to existentially struggle under the culture, which is by no means confined to the Japanese society but to the whole humanity. His films always seems Faucauldian, which was earlier than the brilliant theorist himself.

i was told to watch this movie. but i am shocked at how average it is. im sorry but this movie is really typical in asian cinema. i grown up in southeast asia, this kind of films are like normal daily drama. in malay telenovela, malay evening drama, P.Ramlee films, indonesian sinetron, heck even Bollywood also are flooded with this kind of theme. its just an average film for asian cultures, but it may be alien to westerners.
@emptylikebox4 жыл бұрын
It's not the theme of his films that make them special. Ozu has a very distinctive style. You think it's just ordinary because most of those directors that you are pertaining to were influenced by Ozu that's why they have similar style.

@@hadeed-_-5678 it reflects on the culture but it's more of a voluntary sacrifice she makes out of love although in actuality he is sacrificing his desires to keep her around because he knows it is ultimately not fair to her in the long-run. The ability for both to do so is considered a value and also touches on the inevitable/painful acceptance of how all fathers have to depart from their daughter's life at some point.

it won't be a 'good' movie today. critics would nip it in the bud : too naive, too simple, boring.. people today in the west don't value virtue, order, loyalty, commitement and honor. that's why divorces are exploding, women don't want to work for anything, they want to full package, the 6 foot white dude with a jawline a 6 figures income .. it's impulsive, fast, cliché. 90% of men are just invisible for western women.

All today's movies are promoting are perverted Dad jokes, Multiple sexual relationships , divorce, drugs and what not woke stuff combined with some conservative cringe. Not to mention the glorious culture showcaed in Ozu movies along with coming of age drama - all this fits in right proportion rather than dispersed propaganda in Hollywood films.
