Review of Late Spring (1949) by Genaro N — 18 Jul 2007
Simplicity, elegance, unity, harmony austerity, this are characteristics of the Zen Tradition but also to the films of Yasujiro Ozu. One of the most consistent works in the history of cinema and one of the most rigorous works in terms of style.
Simplicity and elegance where every thing in his compositions was meticulous placed to achieve a pictorial cinema. A cinema where you can put alone the image an it will be very beautiful to look, the movie is so subordinated to form, to symetry, balance and visual harmony that every frame that you see in a Ozu film is something beautifull.
