I Lived, But... (1983)

I Lived, But... (1983) - Documentary Movies 123 minutes. Ikite wa mita keredo – Ozu Yasujirō den, The Life and Works of Yasujiro Ozu, I Lived, But.... An extremely lovely tribute to Ozu, on the 20th anniversary of his death. It uses a combination of footage from vintage films and new material (both interviews and Ozu-related locations) shot by Ozu's long-time camera-man (who came out of retirement to work on this). Surprisingly (or perhaps not), it focuses less on Ozu's accomplishments as a film-maker than on his impact on the lives of the people he worked with..
