Manage episode 274698104 series 2438750
It's classic week, and Aruba and Chris take on the Master Ozu Yasujiro with one of his less exalted features, Brothers and Sisters of the Toda Family (1941). We discuss its reputation as a National Policy film, its strange place in Ozu's filmography, how it attributed to the development of his signature style, its critical portrayal of class in a family-centric society, and whether or not it is a comedy.
