Cast: Chishu Ryu, Setsuko Hara, Haruko Sugimura, Jun Usami, Yumaji Tsukiokaj, Masao Mishima.Summary: One of the most powerful of Yasujiro Ozu's family portraits, Late Spring (Bamshun) tells the story of a widowed father who feels compelled to marry off his beloved only daughter. Eminent Ozu players Chishy Ryu and Setsuko Hara command this poignant tale of love and loss in postwar Japan, which remains as potent today as ever - almost alone justifying Ozu's inclusion in the pantheon of cinema's greatest directors. (Janus Films)Summary: The story of a widower and his daughter who through devotion to him is getting past a marriageable age. The father pretends to marry a young wife so his daughter will feel less obligated to stay with him. She marries and he prepares to live the remainder of his life alone.
