  • This is a videoessay I did for my thesis.
    The first part is from Tokyo-Ga, a documentary by Wim Wenders. This extract is the perfect definition of what a pillow shot at it's core is.
    The other 3 main parts of the video are: Ozu's early work (B&W), Ozu's late work, other directors' more recent work.

    Yet to watch any of Ozu's films but this is beautiful. I love when films feature still shots like this. The accompanying music is so calm.

    Can you make a list of the films from the last segment, the one where modern films are shown? I felt like Before Sunrise was there

      Yes! It's one of them. I'll update the description with the list.
