Tomorrow There Will Be Fine Weather

Tomorrow There Will Be Fine Weather 1948 Directed by Hiroshi Shimizu 明日は日本晴れ

Lost for 70 years until 2022, Shimizu’s second postwar film recalls Mr. Thank You as he frames the narrative in a familiar setting, tracking an autumnal bus ride from a hot spring town through a mountain pass. When the jaunty bus unceremoniously breaks down, a bittersweet sadness overcomes the passengers as unexpected reunions take place, but nothing can be what it was before the war.
