#InSearchOfOzu, #TheCriterionChannel 2018, #DirectedBy #DanielRaimi, is an interesting, gentle look at #objects the #director #YasujiroOzu used in, and to create, his #films, done in a way that imbues the #inanimate with an #essence, a sense of #spirit, that let them #act as representations of the #artist and shows, literally, how they helped #Ozu express his ideas on #film.
#Documentaries like this #teach me how little I really know or understand about making #movies.

Late Spring by Yasujirô Ozu
"One of the most powerful of Yasujiro Ozu’s family portraits, Late Spring (Banshun) tells the story of a widowed father who feels compelled to marry off his beloved only daughter. Eminent Ozu players Chishu Ryu and Setsuko Hara command this poignant tale of love and loss in postwar Japan, which remains as potent today as ever—and a strong justification for its maker’s inclusion in the pantheon of cinema’s greatest directors." Criterion Collection
@davidaugust Can't think of a feature film that is a single static shot, but I'd recommend looking at the work of #YasujiroOzu (if you haven't already). The later films especially are a series of carefully composed static scenes at low angles. Similarly, #JacquesTati. #RoyAndersson's style is very inspired by Tati, with super-wide static long shots. I've seen #SongsFromTheSecondFloor/Sånger från andra våningen, and I think it might interest you.

Yasujiro Ozu: Floating Weeds (1959) - Ending
"The gorgeous ending to Yasujiro Ozu's Floating Weeds (1959). The down and out Komajuro Arashi meets his mistress Sumiko (played masterfully by Ganjiro Nakamura and Machiko Kyo respectively) in a train station."
