Description
The Life of Oharu - BUK-036-DVD-Kinuyo Tanaka
Based on Ihara Saikaku's “The Life of an Amorous Woman,” this film by director Kenji Mizoguchi, who crafted the structure and had Yoshikazu Yoda write the screenplay, had a profound influence on later filmmakers, much like his “Ugetsu Monogatari.” It won the International Award at the 1952 Venice International Film Festival. It depicts the downfall of the young and beautiful Oharu (Kinuyo Tanaka), portraying her life—which teeters on the brink of happiness only to collapse—with an almost abnormal intensity and clarity, a masterpiece uniquely characteristic of Kenji Mizoguchi. In cinema, an actress who always demands to be filmed beautifully must bare her ugly face in this work. It is a work that makes one realize anew the incredible power of actress Kinuyo Tanaka, just as much as director Mizoguchi.
