It\u2019s Alicia\u2019s pick\u2026 \u2018Tokyo Story,\u2019 the 1953 film by Yasujir\u014d Ozu, which filmmaker and critic, Lindsay Anderson, after seeing it in London in 1957 wrote a review for Sight & Sound magazine likened it to the Zen state of experiencing the world in the same way as before, but feeling as if you\u2019re 2 inches off the ground.

The film has appeared several times on Sight & Sound magazine\u2019s decennial polls of the \u201cgreatest films\u201d most recently at #3 on the critics poll and #1 on the directors poll.

Also, with the horrific events recently in Atlanta and the overall rise in bigotry and violence toward our friends in AAPI communities, we suggest supporting groups Stop AAPI Hate. And for those who want to learn how they can assist people facing hatred and violence in person, we suggest looking into bystander intervention training with groups like Hollaback!
