    L'Atalante japanese style

    Repast shows your standard Japanese marriage, hard workiung husband who takes his wifes duties for granted and a wife spending all day on the upkeep of the house on a low budget. A neice visiting from Tokyo causes some friction (by polite Japanese standards) and the wife decides to go off to Tokyo which she misses. Will she stary from her husband, will he cope without her ? Its pretty obvious what will happen but its still done in a simple elegant style to keep you watching. Another of the films as done by Ozu where the directors seem to have been ordered to show the sort of behaviour that is expected of the population. Will try another one but this was far from essential viewing.
