TOKYO STORY - ALASTAIR PHILLIPS KARTONIERT (TB)

This BFI Film Classics study of Tokyo Monogatari Tokyo Story (1953) reveals the making  meaning
and legacy behind Ozu Yasujiro's masterpiece. Ozu's moving family drama is universally
acknowledged as one of the most significant Japanese films ever made. In its complex portrait
of human motivation and lively sense of social space  it offers a profound and poignant insight
into the generational shifts of post-war Japan. Alastair Phillips provides an in-depth analysis
of the film and its key locations - the city of Tokyo  the town of Onomichi and the coastal
resort of Atami - with a discussion of its representation of Japanese society at a time of
great cultural change. Drawing upon Japanese and English language sources  he situates the film
within various contemporary critical and industrial contexts and examines the multiple
international dimensions of Tokyo Story's long after-life to understand its enormous
contribution to global film culture.
