One of the most well regarded of non-Western film directors,
responsible for acknowledged classics like Tokyo Story (1953), Ozu
Yasujiro worked during a period of immense turbulence for Japan and
its population. This book offers a new interpretation of Ozu's
career, from his earliest work in the 1920s up to his death in
1963, focusing on Ozu's depiction of the everyday life and
experiences of ordinary Japanese people during a time of
depression, war and economic resurgence. Firmly situating him
within the context of the Japanese film industry, Woojeong Joo
examines Ozu's work as a studio director and his relation to sound
cinema, and looks in-depth at his wartime experiences and his
adaptation to postwar Japanese society. Drawing on Japanese
materials not previously examined in western scholarship, this is a
groundbreaking new study of a master of cinema.
