a strikingly feminist take on feudal japan, and a very sad tale of a woman who is suffocated by it. mizoguchi provides a film much more concerned with human drama than something (say) kurosawa might offer. the editing seems a little rushed; one reviewer mentioned that it's quite episodic and i'd agree with that. by the end it has drained you with its depressing story.
