Citations
[English subtitled version]
Yoshitaro Sakamoto: If Japan had won the war, how would things be?
Shuhei Hirayama: I wonder.
Yoshitaro Sakamoto: More whiskey! Bring us the whole bottle. If we'd won, we'd both be in New York now. New York. And not just a pachinko parlor called New York. The real thing!
Shuhei Hirayama: Think so?
Yoshitaro Sakamoto: Absolutely. Because we lost, our kids dance around and shake their rumps to American records. But if we had won, the blue-eyed ones would have chignon hairdos and chew gum while plunking tunes on the shamisen.
Shuhei Hirayama: But I think it's good we lost.
Yoshitaro Sakamoto: You think? Yeah, maybe you're right. The dumb militarists can't bully us anymore.

Générique farfelu
The film title and credits are set against a backdrop of painted fronds.

Generally Yasujirô Ozu films have the credits placed before a backdrop of plain sackcloth.

Let This Movie Gently Win You Over

A sensitive film which observes a widower and his family as they navigate through their days and nights in post-WWII Japan, a place where etiquette and custom are still important and individuality counts for less than it does in the U.S.A. We witness a world where unmarried women are expected to take care of their partner-less fathers and brothers.

This film features excellent use of color, especially the placement of yellows and reds.

"An Autumn Afternoon" grows on you as you slowly, steadily work your way into the lives of Mr. Hirayama and his family; it's as if the camera were a guest gaining the acceptance of the major characters.

Will Mr. Hirayama come upon his own personal autumn afternoon - a state of philosophical clarity where he can discern things soberly and make a wise and compassionate decision?

A must-see for devotees of Japanese cinema, director Ozu, and those who love quiet, gentle films.
