Yasujirō Ozu worked almost exclusively within the shomin-geki (“common people drama”) tradition, telling gentle stories of multigenerational families during the great cultural shifts of postwar Japan. His low-angle framing and light touch were prominent from the beginning of his career, but the films he made in the last five years of his life have a distinctive melancholy beauty.
