Tokyo Story (東京物語 Tōkyō Monogatari) is a 1953 Japanese film directed by Yasujirō Ozu. It tells the story of an aging couple who travel to Tokyo to visit their grown children. The film contrasts the behavior of their biological children, who are too busy to pay them much attention, and their daughter-in-law, who treats them with kindness. It is often regarded as Ozu's masterpiece, and has twice appeared in Sight & Sound magazine's 'Top Ten' list of the greatest films ever made.

  • really beautiful film

  • This film is on the shortest list of greatest films and Ozu is on the shortest list of greatest directors.

  • Domo arigato very good film, enjoyed it  even though it was sad

  • オリジナルのフィルムは消失しているそうで、フィルムを文化遺­産として残す発想のない時代の作品が、鑑賞に堪えうるフィルムが­残っていたのは幸運だと思います。「東京物語」を国宝にしたいで­す、古くならない映画で人類共通のテーマを取り上げている何回見­ても飽きない映画です。

  • 良かった。私も62歳で、主人公の心がわかるような気がします。­

  • To anybody who doesn't speak Japanese, click the little CC button next to the 360p button. took me a little while to figure out :P

  • thanks for uploading

    such a beautiful and sad film
