Cabaret Cinema Movie Medicine presents Tokyo Story Introduced by Joel Anderson

Free ticket with $10 minimum purchase at K2 bar or shop.

1953, Japan, Yasujiro Ozu, 136 min. Starring Chishu Ryu and Setsuko Hara.

Introduced by Joel Neville Anderson, programmer of Japan Society’s 2014 JAPAN CUTS film festival.

  • “The Greatest Film of All Time” – British Film Institute
  • “A MASTERPIECE. Minimalist cinema at its finest and most complex.”
    – Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader
  • “ONE OF THE MOST APPROACHABLE AND MOVING OF ALL CINEMA’S MASTERPIECES!
    Ozu’s style – with its so-called ‘pillow shots’ (introductory shots of yet-unhabited rooms), low, static camera position, unhurried pacing and elaborately composed frames – has come to look, in an age of refreshed minimalism, more and more modern. Also, his main interest – how ordinary human emotions are expressed in the context of the changing modern family – has become ever more fundamental, relevant and richly rewarding.”
    – Wally Hammond, Time Out London
