Yasujiro Ozu documentary

Talking with Ozu (1993), a tribute to Yasujiro Ozu featuring Lindsay Anderson, Claire Denis, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Aki Kaurismäki, Stanley Kwan, Paul Schrader and Wim Wenders.

The elderly man peeling the apple is in my opinion the greatest image in film. Nothing I have seen surpasses it.

This might be the only place we can find footage of Ozu working behind the scenes and one of the only instances of him being filmed. For me that feels revolutionary

[@Richardwestwood-dp5wr]

By far he is my favorite director and the best of all times, RIP Great Master ❤

[@ShaneRob93]

In just over 1 year from now this documentary, commemorating Ozu's death 30 years prior, will itself be 30 years old.

Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping, into the future...

[@amaury5982]

Ozu's films have an universal message. Long life to Ozu!

[@HelbergProductions]

The Kaurismäki bit is brilliant. Thanks for the upload.

[@Casper0123]

Aki Kaurismaki being funny as hell like always!

[@mckavitt]

A beautiful document of seven hearts all beating for the same filmmaker & man, Yazujiro Ozu.

Tokio Story is the best movie of all times

[@Bro-in3zq]

Tokyo Twilight is the second

[@mckavitt13]

I have watched Tokyo Story only about 50 times. And Early Summer only about 15. But may love them equally, now I think about it.

[@Tararu3500]

Wonderful, thank you. Ozu forever...........

[@ignacioestebanmunozramirez6927]

Thank for THIS. I love Ozu, and in my country almost nobody kwon about him.

[@mckavitt13]

Lo siento. In France he is v well known. 👏👏👏🙋🏻‍♀️

[@liltick102]

Ty for uploading this

[@GaitaPonto]

We all own a lot to Ozu.

[@ocean457]

He was born in 1903/12/12 and passed in 1963/12/12 the day he tuned 60's old. How come these numbers can coincide so blatantly in such a mystic way like this? What kind of synchronicity or message is that??

[@fernandostaudt9422]

Thank you for this video!

[@Takeuchix9]

[@robertokubo2465]

A story so human and so filled with emotion. Thanks for posting. I loved it!

[@sarahbarnum]

thanks

[@papageno1849]

Beautiful documentary! Just a note: not the whole world can understand the english so easly, so make subtitles for english directors could be a better choice

[@lachambreverte]

Thank you for your message. It's not perfect, but if you click on the "Settings" button at the bottom right, then click on "Subtitles/CC" and select "English (auto-generated)" you will see KZbin's automated English subtitles. Of course, this will only work for the English-language sections; for the other languages spoken, you would need to select the proper English subtitles.

¡Gracias por fumar, señor Kaurismaki: denota inteligencia, carácter, y libertad!

[@ramikatz690]

great film

[@juliamargaretcameron]

This looks great. Thanks for posting. Would there be the possibility of being provided with English subtitles ?

[@lachambreverte]

English subtitles are available by clicking on "CC" (denoting subtitles/closed captions) at the bottom right of the frame.

[@juliamargaretcameron]

@@lachambreverte Most kind of you to reply. Thanks very much. I was unaware of this feature. Your info might be helpful to others, as well in order to better enjoy this fine documentary.

[@personalsigh]

I'm not sure Ozu would've appreciated the direction of this film, too many pans and zooms and superfluous establishing shots

[@helloalanframe]

I don’t think he would have expected everyone to be like him.

[@barrymoore4470]

@@helloalanframe I agree, and he clearly appreciated films that were very different from his own. He never intended to form a school or rigid style of "proper" filmmaking, except perhaps for his own directorial efforts.
