Tokyo Story

“Tokyo Story. Absolutely beautiful. Ozu. I watched this sort of around the time my mom passed away and it's a really affecting and subtle and sad film about not appreciating your parents. I can't recommend that enough.”

“I've been presented with the option of just picking something randomly off the shelf, probably I'm not going to know what the movie is and here we go. Okay well already I want to see this, it's Ozu's Tokyo Story but look at this cover. There you go. Bye for now.”

“Tokyo Story. The Most Beautiful movie ever made. Keeping with my love of Godzilla movies, Japanese movies about family, always my favorite. Son of Godzilla also. I'm very much looking forward to watching that one again.”

“And then I think the finest film of all time, and if you hadn't seen it, you should see Tokyo Story. This is one that just sort of found its way directly into my soul and it's to me an important, important movie.”

“Tokyo Story, one of my favorites.”

“Tokyo Story, this is the most heartbreaking. And you know, if you're somebody that is obsessed with World War II and then wants to see what happened afterwards and what was life like and how do people get over such a devastating jolt and the beginning of a completely different world when youth and modernism are just kicking out all the old ways and the older people. And the daughter-in-law character who is the one nice person amongst all the children is just amazing.”

“So we move on. Tokyo Story, if you have not watched it, watch it. I watched it when I was very young and didn't understand it and then the older I get the more I do understand it and the more I love it. Just a dream, one of the greatest movies ever made. I also want to say that in film school our film history class was at 9:00 a. M. On a Monday morning... So I'm still playing catch-up from all of those films that I unfortunately slept through.”

“Tokyo Story, classic. I just worked with a director, Kogonada, through the film After Yang, and he loves Ozu.”

“Ozu, Tokyo Story.”
