I Was Born, But… (Yasujiro Ozu, 1932, Japan)

A still image of two boys in chairs from the film "I Was Born, But..."

 The parents world vs. the boys’ world in mise-en-scene and framing. Can the rebellious boys be reconciled to their parents’ trammeled way of life? How is this question expressed through the visual design of these scenes?”
