Plot:	Includes the following three Ozu flix on 3 discs: "I Was Born, But...", "Passing Fancy", and "Tokyo Chorus".
Overview:	In the late twenties and early thirties, Yasujiro Ozu was working steadily for Shochiku studios, honing his craft on dozens of silent films in various genres, from romantic melodramas to college comedies to gangster pictures—and, of course, movies about families. In these three droll domestic films—Tokyo Chorus, I Was Born, But . . . , and Passing Fancy, presented here with all-new scores by renowned silent-film composer Donald Sosin—Ozu movingly and humorously depicts middle-class struggles and the resentments between children and parents, establishing the emotional and aesthetic delicacy with which he would transform the landscape of cinema. Includes the following three Ozu flix on 3 discs: "I Was Born, But...", "Passing Fancy", and "Tokyo Chorus".
