For one week only Dendy Cinemas will be commemorating the life and work of Japanese master filmmaker Yasujirô Ozu. Beginning his career during the era of silent films, Yasujirô Ozu is widely regarded as one of the world’s greatest and most influential filmmakers of all time, due to his unique approach to moviemaking, an unmistakable visual style, and the incorporation of timeless themes in his later films such as family and marriage, and especially the relationships between generations.

Moving to sound films in the late 1930s, this is where Ozu cemented the ‘master’ filmmaker title with the release of highly acclaimed films, The Only Son (1936), Late Spring (1949), The Munekata Sisters (1950), and Tokyo Story (1953). With more than 50 directorial credits, Yasujirô Ozu has stamped his claim as one of, if not the most important Japanese filmmakers to have ever lived!
