Plot / Synopsis
“The shomin-geki are films about the life of the common people, particularly the lower middle-class.... One of the first directors to specialize in the genre was Shimazu.... One of his best films was the 1934 Our Neighbor, Miss Yae, the story of a young girl who falls in love with the boy next door. Her elder sister, unhappily married, also falls in love with the same boy and eventually leaves her husband.... Technically the film was a triumph, and in it Shimazu was at his most slice-of-life-like. The plot had its climaxes, but these were never over-emphasized. Everything moved along on a single level. The lack of action was carefully calculated by the director to give the effect of eavesdropping on life itself.†.AMG
“From the seemingly effortless opening tracking shot through a middle-class neighborhood that terminates to a shot of two young men practicing baseball pitches in the backyard of their suburban home (and accidentally breaking the window of a neighbor's home), Yasujiro Shimazu illustrates his remarkable agility with the medium in the sublime shomin-geki (home drama), Our Neighbor Miss Yae. Ostensibly chronicling the story of a budding affection for the girl next door, Yaeko (Yumeko Aizome), the film is also a complexly (but gracefully) choreographed portrait of contemporary 1930s Japan, as the two households broach an array of traditional and modern social realities from divorce and extramarital affairs, to a young woman's sexual forthrightness, independence, and virginity. Shimazu's elegant command of narrative and camera is bolstered by the equally strong, natural performances of the actors (most notably, the great character actress, Chouko Iida), resulting in a remarkably fluid and delightfully satisfying slice-of-life portrait of prewar Japan.â€
