The 120th Anniversary of Director Yasujiro Ozu!

The year 2023 will mark the 120th anniversary of acclaimed director Yasujiro Ozu, whose most famous work is Tokyo Story (1953). He is also closely associated with the film studio Shochiku, so it should come as no surprise that a special panel exhibition featuring Ozu's film works (posters, awards, etc.) is currently on display on the first floor of the Togeki Building (which is where Shochiku is headquartered) in Tsukiji. The exhibition opened on November 16 and will run through late December. While out and about on Sunday, November 20, I stopped by to look around. Here's what I saw.
