**Screenwriters**: Akira Fushimi, Geibei Ibushiya, Yasujirō Ozu One of Ozu’s most popular films, *I Was Born, But . . .* is a blithe portrait of the financial and psychological toils of one family, as told from the rascally point of view of a couple of stubborn little boys. For two brothers, the daily struggles of bullies and mean teachers is nothing next to the mortification they feel when they realize their good-natured father’s low-rung social status. Reworked decades later as Ozu’s Technicolor comedy *Good Morning*, it’s a poignant evocation of the tumult of childhood, as well as a showcase for Ozu’s expertly timed comedy editing. **Movie Den** is a community initiative generously supported by **Golden Globe Foundation.****** All tickets come with a free small popcorn.
