A story of Floating Weeds

I remember that I watched the remake made in the 50's years ago by the same director Yasuijiro Ozu.  I had to watch the earlier version.  What surprised me about this movie was that it was made in 1934 yet it was silent.  Sound films had been in style for a few years.  When I put it in the DVD player I was surprised.  It's about an actor and the son that he hasn't seen in years. (The mother sees his profession as an embarrassment.) His jealous mistress tries to make a plan where a girl seduces the actor's son, only the two end up falling in love.  I liked this love story in the movie.  I'm watching the remake next month.
