  • Setsuko Hara evokes mystery. She had a strong acting career and made multiple films with celebrated director Yasujiro Ozu. Then, in 1963, she quit acting and retire from public life, drawing comparisons to Greta Garbo. But she left behind a filmography filled with wonderful performances. Come learn why she is considered one of the greatest actresses of her time.

    Youve done a great service to art and cinema, taking the time to focus on this amazing actress. Im just watching the Ozu films again, and newly focused on the fine actors , portraying such subtle characters and drama, that define his work. Suddenly the answer to my questions, magically show up in my YT feed. Kudos to you, Derry Public Library.

    What a co-incidence. I am watching my first Ozu movie, newly discovered [everybody's heard of Kirosawa and others, but not Ozu as much]. Early Summer. I am madly in love with Ms. Hara's character and this amazing film. I had no idea she had that kind of stature, looking forward to your presentation.

    I have watched Tokyo Story many many times and will never get tired of watching it.

      It is a good movie. Many innocent women and children in the world had to go through this pain...

    This was a very well articulated analysis and biography. Thank you for making this. I can't get enough of Setsuko Hara. And you're right, Grave of the Fireflies was a tearjerker. Great example of how great anime can be though. Would be great if you did a documentary like this on Satoshi Kon's films

    Many thanks for this rare but essential documentary. Could you do one for the other great Japanese actress Takamine Hideko (who you briefly mention) star of Naruse's films?

    You guys have done a good job of covering a big name in the Japanese cinema and even world cinema that doesn't have a good in depth documentries like Toshiro Mifune.

    日本のガルボという言い方は賛成できないな。むしろ、ガルボはスクリーンテストを受けているし。
    原節子(Setsuko Hara)は、小津が長生きすれば女優をやっていたと思う。彼女も、そのつもりでいたようだ。
    こういう番組をつくってくれて感謝している。
