Late Ozu (5-DVD)

This five-film collection hails from the latter half of celebrated director Yasujiro Ozu's remarkable career. It includes EARLY SPRING, the tale of a married salesman who embarks on an ill-fated affair with a coworker; TOKYO TWILIGHT, in which a family's past and present traumas emerge one winter; EQUINOX FLOWER, Ozu's first color film, the comic story of two rebellious teenage girls who vow to control their own destinies, despite their traditional father; LATE AUTUMN, an exploration of the intimate ties which bind mother and daughter; and THE END OF SUMMER, in which the lives of three sisters are shattered by a secret from their father's past.
