Typically, these center on parent-child conflicts, which often work themselves out to the benefit of neither. Ozu's <i>Good Morning </i>(1959), a Technicolor re-working of Ozu's silent <i>I Was Born, But ...</i> (1932), abandons some of the more tragic aspects of the genre for a witty and good-hearted look at a different kind of intergenerational problem. <p><a href="default-nf.htm">Go to the review</a></font> </body>
