Yasujiro Ozu (1903-1963) was one of directors that lead the Japanese film industry's output following [[World War II]]. Along with [[Akira Kurosawa]] and [[Kenji Mizoguchi]], Ozu's films analyze the conflict between the system of democracy imposed on Japan by the West immediately after the war and the lingering pre-war feudalism. While his peers used medieval Japan as the backdrop for the majority of their films, Ozu set his scope upon the modern era. His post-WWII films are known for examining the same subject, the domestic affairs of the bourgeois family; the movies he filmed before the war study the social struggles of Japan's lower-class denizens.▼
