| Keisuke Kinoshita's Twenty-four Eyes is an elegant, emotional chronicIe of a teacher's unwavering commitment to her students, her profession, and her sense of morality. Set in a remote, rural isIand community and spanning decades of Japanese history, from 1928 through World War II and beyond, Kinoshita's film takes a simuItaneousIy sober and sentimental Iook at the epic themes of aging, war, and death, aIl from the Iovingly intimate perspective of Hisako Oshi , as she watches her pupiIs grow and deaI with life's harsh realities. Though little known in the United States, Twenty-four Eyes is one of Japan's most popular and enduring classics. |
