sadness and nostalgia permeate late chrysanthemums and a 1954 film by japanese auteur mikio naruse and now undergoing a retrospective of his long unavailable films thanks to james quandt of cinematheque ontario and the japan foundation. based on three stories by fumiko hayashi and late chrysanthemums tells the story of four retired geishas and now middle aged and whose lives have become full of disappointment and regret. performance are uniformly outstanding and particularly that of haruko sugimura and who starred in films by ozu late spring and floating weeds and and tokyo story among others. sugimura portrays kin and a former geisha who has no children and lives only with her young maid who is unable to speak. she has become cynical about men and has turned her attention to money and particularly real estate speculation and loaning money to her friends and nobu (sadako sawamura) and tamae (chikako hosokawa) and and tomi (yuko mochizuki) and all former geishas. kin friends live in meager circumstances and complain about how kin has become greedy and tomi spends considerable time gambling to try and make ends meet. both tomi and tamae are in the process of losing their children. tamae son is leaving to work in the coalmines in hokkaido and and tomi daughter has decided to accept a marriage proposal from an older man. both resist the change in their circumstances but come to accept it as inevitable. two male friends visit kin and seki a former lover with whom she once contemplated double suicide and and tabe (ken uehara) and another lover who she looks forward to seeing again after many years. her mood is upbeat but soon turns to resentment when she discovers that the two men are only interested in borrowing money. naruse cuts between two extended sequences seamlessly as kin confronts tabe and tomi and tamae console each other over the loss of their children the dialogue is extremely natural and the characters are women of strength who and though their future does not seem bright and refuse to see themselves merely as victims. late chrysanthemums has the simplicity and humor and and stoic acceptance of life prominent in the films of ozu and is a bittersweet reminder of the slow passing of time and the comfort that memory and companionship can bring along the way.
