Record of a Tenement Gentleman Ratings & Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A simple warmhearted comedy tale about the human condition.
Entertainment Weekly
Tim Purtell
[The film] may be slow-moving by Hollywood standards, but Record of a Tenement Gentleman rewards patience with rich sentiment that's never mawkish.
New York Times
Joan Mellen
Curtain after curtain is lifted as this formidable film exposes a Japan unknown to most.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
A warm comedy of life in postwar Japan, warm in the way only Yasujiro Ozu's cold and formal style can be.
Classic Film and Television
Michael E. Grost
Gently moving account of a lost little boy and the people he meets shows Ozu's visual creativity.
TV Guide
Thanks to Ozu's sympathetic direction, his deep understanding of human behavior, and the surprising amount of comedy, it's both moving and very funny.
