Summary:
"Yasujiro Ozu's
Tokyo
Story
follows an aging couple, Tomi and Shukichi, as they journey from their rural village to visit their two married children in bustling, postwar
Tokyo
. Their reception, however, is disappointing: too busy to entertain them, their children send them off to the hot springs. After Tomi falls ill, she and Shukuchi return home; the children, grief-stricken, hasten to be with her. From a simple tale unfolds one of the greatest of all Japanese Films. Starring Ozu regulars Chishu Ryu and Setsuko Hara, the film reprises one of the director's favorite themes - that of generational conflict - in a way that is quintessentially Japanese, and yet universal in its appeal."--Container.
