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.

Crédits fous
The film title and credits are set against a backdrop of painted fronds.

When I first saw this film it struck me as being a very unusual and odd little movie. The camera work was direct and straightforward, as if the director were composing a still life painting. With the passage of time I remembered this film not as a whole but as a series of vignettes, the sailor marching in the bar, the unrequited lovers waiting for a train on the platform, the father staring into his daughter's empty room. I have recently seen An Autumn Afternoon again, and was not disappointed. Each scene has an almost indescribable longing, an ephemeral quality that speaks to the beauty and sadness of everyday life. I love this film, it is a true work of art.
