A quick way to annoy Koreeda and many of his admirers is to compare him to Yasujiro Ozu, another director who represented Japanese cinema overseas. Koreeda has gently protested he does not have Ozu in mind when he makes his films; he prefers citing directors like Mikio Naruse or indeed Britain’s own Ken Loach. Nonetheless, his film After the Storm brings up such obvious Ozu comparisons that Koreeda must surely be resigned to critics making them… although, according to Sight & Sound, he sighs when Ozu’s name comes up. - alltheanime.com

от себя добавлю: он может говорить что хочет, но невозможно представить, что он не видел Tokyo Story.

легче поверить, что автор Three Billboards не видел In the Heat of the Night.
