Film with Setsuko Hara(1939)

Setsuko Hara filmed in 1946

A Ball at the Anjo House - 1947
Here is the film grand finale (without subs but trust me, you don't need any), feat. (1) the stricking splendor of Setsuko Hara, (2) the best tango scene of the whole history of cinema & (3) a good exemple of that kind of paradoxal father-daughter relationship the great japanese directors liked to film.
A ball at the Anjo House (1947/b&W/88mn./16mm)
Dir. Kozaburo Yoshimura ; scr. Kaneto Shindo ; W/ Osamu Tazikawa, Setsuko Hara
A family of noble lineage is stripped of its fortune and titles during the Allied occupation's drive to democratize Japan in the aftermath of its dfeat in WWII. The Anjo family throws one last party the night before vacating their mansion, and family members, guests, and servants all reflect on the changes they see pervading their homeland (jahmorinz).

Late Spring (1949)
The video is no longer available. That's sad. Because is the movie of Ozu I like the most.
The Noh play scene from Ozu's 1949 masterpiece Late Spring.
This may be one of the single greatest moments in terms of performance in film, and it is expressed with the most subtle gestures and movements and without a single word of dialogue. You see everything in Setsuko Hara's movements and when she drops her head, your heart breaks alongside hers.

Repast (Meshi, 1951) by Mikio Naruse
Here are the opening moments from the 1951 film Repast, directed by the great Mikio Naruse. Repast is another emotionally complex masterwork from one of the most authentic filmmakers in defining the essence of human emotion and behavior. As always, Setsuko Hara provides a powerful performance. All these clips are made to serve not as disrespect, but as tribute of the films and filmmakers. Obviously a clip can not serve justice to the films true beauty. (breathoflifepictures)
