I am a massive Ozu fan and have seen a lot of his movies. From what you said it seems you came from the Kurosawa world into this one. How did you feel about the low static camera as it compares to the fast paced camera of Kurosawa? It certainly gives a very different feeling to the movie.
I liked it a lot. at first I found it funny because the shots were so in your face but as the movie went on, It started to grow on me and actually helped to make me feel Immerse in the dialog and places the movie took place .
It is interesting that Ozu started his life of making films in the silent film era. And if you watch some old silent era movies, you will see that back in that era cameras were pretty much always static set ups - usually without panning or movement (relative to the actors in the scene). Occasionally in some movies for example a camera might be mounted on a vehicle to portray movement in a chase, for example but that kind of thing seems to be the exception. Ozu continued with this form of camera use right through his career - static cameras (almost always with a 50mm lens apparently) recording set scenes except for very occasional tracking shots. His one innovation was the use of the low "tatami shot" motivated it seems by his repeated technique of filming "talking heads" in a very specific way - which also created the need to put the camera on the level of his seated subjects. He was a master of this kind of shooting and I admire many of his movies that I have seen. But it does seem that he was a creature of extreme habit (even in terms of the stories he told as much as in the filming techniques he used). Or, as he put it - he was a "tofu maker" - he made the same "tofu" every time, his one aim being to perfect it, not innovate or change it.

Just rewatched late autumn today. It's a fantastic movie. Maybe my favourite Ozu film.
Donde la viste?
this was amazing
小津安二郎の作品で最も何も起こらないドラマが遺作となった。公開当時古い日本映画の代表として批判する世代も多かったが今となっては最も普遍的な映画になっている。ラストシーンで茶の間で酔い潰れ「独りぼっちか…」と呟く笠智衆に軍艦マーチが聴こえてきてやがて旋律が子守歌のような優しい斎藤高順のテーマ曲に代わってゆくラスとカットは小津安二郎の自画像でもあり遺作になったのは偶然てはなかった。海外での人気は「東京物語」にも迫るものがある。
東京物語はまだ見ていませんが、これは私がとても気に入っているタイプの映画で、小津安二郎の作品や他の監督ももっと見たいと思っています.
great video!
Pls Watch more Ozu films, i like this video
I REALLY hope you ve watched the "Noriko trilogy" (i.e. Late Spring, Early Summer and Tokyo Story)! If not, HURRYYYYY!!
