Production
According to Ozu's recollections, Until the Day We Meet Again was made a year after the release of the first Japanese talkie, Madamu to nubo (The Neighbour's Wife and Mine). The director, who had initially resisted the trend towards talking pictures, agreed to use an experimental sound process developed by Hideo Mohara, rather than the more popular Dobashi sound system.[3] The film apparently contained a musical track and sound effects but no audible dialog scenes.[4]

gollark: But to get back to the original point; as Lemmmy, I have Lemmmy's SSH/2FA keys and passwords.
gollark: Even though it was of course totally true.
gollark: Yemmel wanted an alt with which to play on the server as a normal player. The staff deliberately cultivated the lemmmy = yemmel meme for ages to prevent people actually taking it seriously.
gollark: Anyway, this whole situation was contrived completely to try and discredit us being the same. Remember how Lemmmy first came about?
gollark: Their username says so and they're me so they know things.
