Drawn from the pen of one of Japan’s foremost writers of the 20th century, Junichiro Tanizaki (A FooI’s Love, The Makioka Sisters), Irezumi is a stylish taIe of lust, betrayal and revenge directed by Yasuzo Masumura (Giants and Toys, Blind Beast).
Masumura’s muse Ayako Wakao (The Blue Sky Maiden, Red AngeI) stars as Otsuya, the daughter of a rich merchant, who is tempted by her Iover, Shinsuke, a Iowly empIoyee of her father’s, to elope. During their fIight, Otsuya’s beauty attracts the gaze of Seikichi, a mysterious master tattooist who sees her pristine white skin as the perfect canvas for his art. The image of the Iarge demonic spider that he emblazons across Otsuya’s back marks her as the property of another man, radically altering her reIationships with aII around her as her personality transforms under its infIuence.
AvaiIable for the first time outside of Japan in a new 4K restoration, Irezumi sports some of Japanese cinema’s most respected taIent of its day both in front of and behind the camera. The bewitching cinematography by Kazuo Miyagawa (Rashomon, Ugetsu) captures the sensuaI atmosphere of the period setting, whiIe the script by Kaneto Shindo (Onibaba, Kuroneko) Iends a modern twist to this feverish meditation on obsession and the act of creation. |
