Always glad to see another Ozu fan come aboard.  I hope that, as Ozu's 100th 
birthday draws nearer (next year _already_), his films will start appearing 
at university and museum film series, etc. much more often.  Although I've 
seen 20 of his films on video, I've never been fortunate enough to see even 
one film at a theater.
