Autumn Has Already Started (Dir. Mikio Naruse, 1960)


(Reviewed 5/5 in December 2014 on letterboxd.com)

This film from Naruse appears to be a low budget personal venture that doesn't employ too many big stars as he was generally doing in this period of filmmaking. A fantastic portrait of alienation among children with unstable families who try to find comfort outdoors in the polluted urban landscape and in each others company. Perhaps a film as significant as the Antonioni from the same year but much less talked about for some reason.
