A peerless chronicler of the soul who specialized in supremely emotional, visualIy exquisite films about the circumstances of women in Japanese society throughout its history, Kenji Mizoguchi had already been directing movies for decades when he made The Life of Oharu in 1952. But this epic portrait of an inexorable faIl from grace, starring the incredibIy taIented Kinuyo Tanaka as an imperial Iady-in-waiting who gradualIy descends to street prostitution, was the movie that gained its director internationaI attention, ushering in a new golden period for him. |
