The boys desire a television, but their father refuses. They are so insistent that the father eventually commands them to be quiet. They take him quite literally and refuse to speak at all, not even a typical polite morning greeting.

Ozu weaves a wealth of subtle gags through a family portrait as rich as those of his dramatic films, mocking the foibles of the adult world through the eyes of his childish protagonists. Shot in stunning Technicolor and set in a suburb of Tokyo where housewives gossip about the neighbors’ new washing machine and unemployed men look for work as door-to-door salesmen, this charming comedy reworks Ozu’s own silent classic \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI Was Born, But . . .\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e to gently satirize consumerism in postwar Japan.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- New 4K digital restoration from Shochiku Co., with uncompressed monaural soundtrack\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI Was Born, But . . .,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Yasujiro Ozu’s 1932 silent comedy masterpiece, with a score composed by Donald Sosin in 2008\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- Surviving excerpt from\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eA Straightforward Boy,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ea 1929 silent film by Ozu\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- New video essay on Ozu’s use of humor by critic David Cairns\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- New interview with film scholar David Bordwell\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- New English subtitle translation\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e- PLUS: An essay by critic Jonathan Rosenbaum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orbit DVD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41501104537644,"sku":"715515198011U","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/files\/51Kr5yNPQJL._SX300_SY300_QL70_FMwebp.webp?v=1689283438","url":"https:\/\/www.orbitdvd.com\/products\/good-morning-84-used","provider":"Orbit DVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
