Floating Weeds (1959, Yasujiro Ozu)

The first Ozu film I've ever seen. (Thank you, soon-to-be-gone Netflix!)
Very beautiful and carefully shot. And, despite its quiet-ness, also emotionally life-honest (both humorously and tragically).

Message to self: While there may not be any One in your personal life, there is always ART that you can rely on to reflect, or negate, what you're feeling or thinking. 

It's nicer and warmer, of course, to have a real-life person to exchange ideas with... But in lieu of that, the thoughts and images of decades and centuries past also serve to make you feel less alone by reflecting universal thoughts---ideas and emotions that you've had, and that all of these people 1000 years ago or 100 years ago or 50 years ago also had. We're never alone as long as we have the thoughts of our human ancestors with us, to either agree or argue with.
