Tokyo Story
Yasujirô Ozu
Tokyo Story is a Yasujirô Ozu masterpiece whose rewarding complexity has lost none of its power more than half a century on.
This first feature by an accomplished director of commercials and rock videos finds him very much at home in a long-form study of catastrophic family fall-out.
Inspired by a tragedy in his own life, he has written two juicy roles for the two young principals, Ruby (Bridgerton) Barker and Lily Rose Aslandogdu, from whom he extracts convincing and moving performances. Dedicated ‘to all families’.
