Good Morning (1959): Movie Review from the Ray Taylor Show

Show topic:

Step into the charming world of Yasujirō Ozu's 1959 Japanese comedy, 'Good Morning' (お早よう, Ohayō), as Ray Taylor offers an insightful review of this classic film. A loose remake of Ozu's own 1932 silent film 'I Was Born, But...,' and his second color film, 'Good Morning' delightfully depicts life in suburban Tokyo through a blend of humor and societal observation. The film's narrative revolves around the Hayashi family and the local women's club, entwining a humorous subplot about misplaced monthly dues with the story of young boys enamored with their neighbor’s television. Ray Taylor delves into Ozu's masterful storytelling and the film's commentary on communication, modernization, and the generational gap in post-war Japan. Discover the charm and subtlety of Ozu's work in this episode, which sheds light on why 'Good Morning' remains a celebrated piece in the world of cinema.
