Comedy, Family, Drama
A lighthearted take on director Yasujiro Ozu’s perennial theme of the challenges of inter­generational relationships, Good Morning tells the story of two young boys who stop speaking in protest after their parents refuse to buy a television set. Ozu weaves a wealth of subtle gags through a family portrait as rich as those of his dramatic films, mocking the foibles of the adult world through the eyes of his child protagonists. Shot in stunning color and set in a suburb of Tokyo where housewives gossip about the neighbors’ new washing machine and unemployed husbands look for work as door-to-door salesmen, this charming comedy refashions Ozu’s own silent classic I Was Born, But . . . to gently satirize consumerism in postwar Japan.

Every frame of this movie is beautiful, looks like a painting, and the story is simple and funny.

Didn't expect fart jokes in an Ozu, but it's a fun comedy with a backdrop of Western influences on Japan. It's essentially about the importance of communication in families and communities (as Ozu's films often are) but with a spin on it that almost predicts the age of consumerism, technology and all that comes with it.
