AN AUTUMN AFTERNOON (Yasujirō Ozu, 1962, 35mm, 113 mins)New print! In “one of Ozu’s purest, most elemental works” (Dave Kehr), a widowed businessman realizes the need to let his devoted daughter build a life of her own, even if that means leaving him behind. Filled with gentle humor, unspoken affection, and Ozu’s signature low-angle compositions, the film transforms ordinary meals, conversations, and rituals into a luminous meditation on family, aging, and change. Delicate, dignified, and devastating, Ozu’s swansong offers one of cinema’s most graceful farewells. In Japanese with English subtitles. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive, made with funding from the Yale Council on East Asian Studies and the Cinema Veritas program, with thanks to Shochiku Co., Ltd.
