A story of floating weeds
"Floating weeds, drifting down the leisurely river of our lives."
A film by Yasujiro Ozu.
The 1934 version, silent and black and white, under the rain. Beautiful photography. No camera movement. Come un silenzio doppo il pranzo.
The 1959 remake: color and spoken, in the summer heat by the sea. Extraordinary, the silences, the cuts, the photos.
