Ozu really knows how to make you ache with every frame. I love how he brilliantly cuts to the wife to show her smile at what they both know was an arrangement, and the husband's acknowledgement of that. There's a deep respect of tradition between them, and a recognition that there's is a dying tradition giving way to a more Westernized idea of marriage. That's why a sadness hangs over every frame.
Surely he can't have just told everyone that he never liked his wife, nor she him - right in front of her? There must be more to that. Please tell me there is more to that!!!

佐分利信のスピーチを聞いて思ったこと 今ではこのような格式ある日本語を話せる人はいなくなりました。

1 Year later. Yes theres more to that. Japanese culture is weird in a way that they marry before they love, especially with older couples.
Yeah I definitely do not envy their relationship!!
