07/26/2014 I saw this film in college (circa 1983) and remember it being amusing and enjoyable with great acting. If I can find it I will watch it again. See more 01/25/2009 Ozu would've been a great comedy director in late-silent Hollywood. Also, things our hero likes: his beard, kendo, Lincoln, American movies, cake, traditional Japanese dress, and good manners. A man after my own heart. See more Read all reviews
