This film destroyed me. It feels even worse knowing that Setsuko Hara passed away just recently. I love this feeling of destruction and anguish that I get from Late Spring because it shows how greatly Ozu cared about and loved his characters and their stories. I love this and I love Ozu.

You said it perfectly Isaac. I don't know if you know this but Setsuko guarded her privacy very carefully. Nevertheless, I was making plans to go see her with a Japanese friend when she died. .. Heartbreaking for me.

It destroyed me also. I saw it after seeing "Tokyo Story" and I didn't think I'd see another film like that one. "Late Spring" is my favourite Ozu movie. What an artist. I too love Yasuijirō Ozu

I love this film so much because it’s like a beautiful tragedy. In the beginning, Noriko is very smiley all the time (even through tough conversations) and we get the idea that she doesn’t think about hard subjects and only cares for her father’s well-being all the time. Then, it gets planted in her head that she should “fly from the nest” and get married. Suddenly, she seems upset and it makes us upset too. She doesn’t want to leave her father behind, but she knows that it is time to think about herself for the first time. Then at the end Shukichi returns home alone for the first time and feels the pain. This is familial loss.

I have seen it three times. The odd thing is that while watching the emotions never feel powerful, yet when I later think of the film it strikes me quite powerfully.

Reid Sheftall I don't disagree with you Reid it's at my number two in my all time favourite movies. And it could move up to number one in the future it's just behind in the mood for love for me but not by much and it could move up to my number one in the future. I do think it's better than Tokyo story. Early summer is also an incredible film and I prefer it over Tokyo story. Tokyo story is in my top 10.

Will you think I am a cop out if I say Tokyo Story and Late Spring are in a tie.. When I saw TS, I left it running over and over in my room for a week. But i could only watch Late Spring once... Maybe that means Late Spring hit me harder... OK.. I give in Late Spring is #1, Tokyo Story is #2... I want to see the others. Where can I get them?

It's always a toss-up for me. Late Spring or Ohayo? I can never make a decision. Love how tender Late Spring is but I love the light-hearted joy of Ohayo. They display both sides of his incredible talent and make the perfect double feature.

I just watched a video talking about the film's many veiled references to the presence of the West in Japan. Nietzsche is of course an iconic figure representing certain key values associated w the West - look how Dostoevsky uses him - this observation you make might potentially make the film even more devastating - why? because the father is reading Zarathustra at the same time that he's sacrificing his daughter's and his own individual happiness for the sake (to a large extent) of tradition - it underlines his own deeply divided feelings about this, which he's been repressing, and which we see finally emerge fully in the film's final moments w the apple - your point about the book makes me wonder how conscious the father was about agreeing w his daughter - that they should just trust their own happiness in their arrangement instead of bowing to the social codes - looked at this way, the presence of the book is a tiny wry detail that may nevertheless serve to deepen the tragedy of the film
