Possibly one of the largest Wiki articles for a movie I've seen. I was surprised that there was only one page of discussion for Late Spring on the IMDb board.
Doubtful you are a much of a movie wiz since you can't take the time to read the meticulously researched article about Ozu's films provided by Wikipedia -- in English.
...and...it's free...
Ozu is one of the greatest cinema geniuses of all time. I'm always very grateful for any information available about the period of time he lived and worked in Japan, his methods, his actors, the sociopolitical atmosphere of Japan in the 50's etc
Late Spring is one of the most beautiful movies ever. Take a deep breath and watch it in a very quiet, very dark room with no distraction and no alcohol. It's a masterpiece.
