Review of Floating Weeds (1959) by X. T — 03 Jun 2009
Since it's a remake of the 1934 film the tone, plot, and dramatic feel of this is quite unusual compared to Ozu's other late period films. Ozu takes more time to tell the same story and concentrates more on the atmosphere, which greatly benefits from Miyagawa' s beautiful work and the Nino Rota-like score, while the melodrama is more pronounced with sound.
