Sound of the Mountain (Naruse Mikio, 1954)

For all the toe fungus and abortion it's a very delicate movie, albeit with a raging emotional undercurrent.  Doesn't hit quite as hard as Floating Clouds, but I think that's just because at heart I'll always be a sucker for scope.  Anyhow magnificent, and I like Hara more with every new movie I see her in.
