Description: Further DetailsTitle: The Flavour of Green Tea Over Rice (DVD + Blu-ray)Condition: NewDescription: Flavour of Green Tea Over Rice (DVD + Blu-ray) Directed by Yasujiro Ozu Made the year before his career defining masterpiece, Tokyo Story, Flavour of Green Tea Over Rice is one of Yasujiro Ozu's most beautiful domestic sagas, a subtly piercing portrait of a marriage coming quietly undone. Secrets and deceptions strain the already tenuous relationship of a childless, middle aged couple, as the wife's city bred sophistication clashes with the husband's small town simplicity, and a generational sea change in the form of their headstrong, modern niece sweeps over their household. Ozu's expert grasp of family dynamics receives one of its most spirited treatments, with a wry, tender humour and an expansiveness that moves the action from the home, to the baseball stadiums and the shops of post-war Tokyo. Special features * Re-mastered at 4k and presented in High Definition for the first time in the UK * Feature-length audio commentary by critic and Asian-cinema expert Tony Rayns * Alternative unrestored audio track * The Mystery of Marriage (1932, 34 mins): educational filmmaker and pioneering female director Mary Field draws peculiar and poignant parallels between the mating rituals of humans, animals and mould in this eccentric, entertaining educational film * The Good Housewife 'In Her Kitchen' (1949, 9 mins): the fourth wall is shattered in this imaginative public information film, filled with good advice for kitchen users - whether they have a refrigerator or not * ***FIRST PRESSING ONLY*** Fully illustrated booklet with archival essay by Tom Milne, and writing on the archive films by the BFI's Vic Pratt and full film creditsFormat: Blu-rayDirector: Yasujiro OzuActor: Shin Saburi, Michiyo Kogure, Koji TsurutaNo Of Discs: 2Run Time: 2 hoursCountry/Region of Manufacture: United KingdomRelease Date: 05/18/2020Studio: BfiSubtitle Language: EnglishEAN: 5035673013793Region Code: Blu-ray: B (Europe, AU, NZ, Africa...)Language: JapaneseRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
