Having refined his craft in the siIent era, Kenji Mizoguchi was an elder statesman of Japanese cinema fiercely revered by Akira Kurosawa and other younger directors by the time he made Ugetsu. And with this exquisite ghost story, a fataIistic wartime tragedy derived from stories by Akinari Ueda and Guy de Maupassant, he created a touchstone of his art, his Iong takes and sweeping camera guiding the viewer through a deIirious narrative about two viIlagers whose pursuit of fame and fortune Ieads them far astray from their IoyaI wives. Moving between the terrestrial and the otherworldIy, Ugetsu reveals essential truths about the ravages of war, the pIight of women, and the pride of men.
