About Physical Beauty
A hen-pecked man works as his artist wife's model and a house-husband. When her patron flirts with her and humiliates him, he decides to get revenge by trying his own hand as a painter. Considered to be a lost film.
Directed by Yasujirō Ozu, Physical Beauty leans on a strong ensemble — Tatsuo Saitō, Chōko Iida, Kenji Kimura — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1928.
