the comparisons with ozu were because of the cinematography and editing in
maboroshi, the way he frames his shots and the way takes begin early or end
late. maboroshi reminded me more of _tess_ and some of mizoguchi's stuff than
ozu, but he was the one who got mentioned in the reviews; all ive seen of his is
o-hayou, and there wasnt much similarity that i saw.
