When this set was announced back in April, I started an absurdly ambitious series to tie into it. Cinema Ozu has turned out to be more personally rewarding and enjoyable than any film studies class I took in college (with the possible exception of Chinese Cinema and Culture). To me, what these long-sought-after releases represent to the aspiring filmmaker or film historian is considerable: a look inside two of the most affecting films in one of the greatest filmographies in all of cinema.
