I loved this movie...so sad but so true, even today and here in America...children grow and move on in life, not realizing parents are not gonna be around forever...
You should watch the movie that inspired it. "Make Way for Tomorrow" from 1937. Leo McCarey directs. It's another masterpiece and universal and prescient about how we take our elders for granted.
Valued then as now for its social observation and gentle poignancy, Ozu's "Tokyo Story" emerged in a time when international cinema meant something. Yasujirō Ozu's cinematic methods were different to other Japanese film directors, and European film director's methods. Collectively, this mid 20th century international cinema provided a counter to the gaudy, sentimental work of mainstream 1950s Hollywood.

Maybe the most universal movie ever made.

One of the greatest films ever made without question.

I wish Lindsey was still with us
The greatest director to ever practice the craft.
Tokyo Story is cinema perfection
❤👍
helluva talk
if...
I'm sorry, but I really wish he had said more. He barely makes any direct comments about the film, aside from a little bit of analysis.
They really should have filmed the opening of the video on a brighter day, I feel... London looks as depressing as this Lindsay fellow!
vay
he sounds a bit like Scorsese
