Note that this movie has a great deal in common with director Ozu's masterpiece, "Late Spring", from 11 years earlier, except that instead of a father and a daughter, it is a mother and daughter. And a wonderful additional connection is that the incredible actress Setsuko Hara, who played the daughter in the earlier movie, plays the mother in this movie, even though she is only 11 years older! Also note that Yasujiro Ozu was a legendary Japanese writer and director from 1920s to the 1960s. He is likely the second best regarded Japanese director after Akira Kurosawa, and many of his films are considered classics, and his masterpiece is "Tokyo Story" from 1953, although he made movies from 1927 to 1962.
