THE SCHOOL OF OZU: HOU HSIAO-HSIEN - PART TWO

I’ve watched a lot of Ozu films recently and I’m about to make my own films depicting contemporary Taiwan - Hou Hsiao Hsien, TALKING WITH OZU

Early Summer / Good Men, Good Women


Below is a companion/sequel to last year's post on the visual similarities between the work of Yasujiro Ozu & Hou Hisao Hsien (click here to see part one). Like the first entry, these comparisons are a combination of intentional homages (Cafe Lumiere, Good Men Good Women) and unintentional/coincidental homages (it is speculated that Hou did not discover the work of Ozu until midway in to his filmmaking)..
