Good Morning (1959) (Blu-ray + DVD)

Transferred from best available film elements to High Definition

A bright Tokyo suburb, buzzing with gossip and intrigue, is the backdrop to world renowned Japanese director's Yasujirô Ozu's outstanding comedy, Good Morning. Disillusioned with the seemingly meaningless chatter of the adult world, two brothers take a vow of silence when their parents refuse to buy them a television set. With its dexterously woven plot, built on mishaps and misunderstandings, Good Morning pokes fun at the silliness of everyday adult communication whilst gently acknowledging its fundamental necessity. Available on Blu-ray for the first time.

Also contains full length feature I Was Born, But..., Ozu's superb early comedy, as an extra.
