A remake of Yasujirō Ozu’s silent comedy, I Was Born, But… (1932), Good Morning is a lighthearted tale of the suburban, school-aged Hayashi brothers who simply must have a television set. When their mother refuses, they take a vow of silence that leads to worse repercussions when the neighbors assume she’s seeking vengeance for an earlier misunderstanding. As fanciful as the rich color photography, shot by late-career Ozu regular collaborator Yuharu Atsuta, are the film’s playful games of telephone sprinkled throughout this sprightly satire of consumer culture and generational divide in postwar Japan.
