No, I consider a movie perfect when it sets out to do something--invoke a certain feeling or emotion, deliver a certain message, argue a specific point--and succeeds on every level. A perfect movie...

That's fair enough. They're birds of a feather, so it's hard for me to separate the two. But when I do, I usually say I prefer the story of Late Spring, and I find Tokyo Story the better film.
