Ugetsu

Saturday, July 5, 2008

I didn't plan it this way, but I've given the cinema of Japan some special attention during my K2K. I've really tapped into a reservoir of film that I had no idea I'd enjoy so much. Even a movie like Ugetsu, which is probably too melodramatic for my tastes, actually, um, wasn't too melodramatic for my tastes. It worked for me. I suppose I didn't have as strong of an emotional reaction as this was aiming for, but I had to admire the beauty of its images.
