Storyline:  Chikage Awashima leaves her husband, Koreya Sendai Because he is a high ranking official and a socially important man, this is potential news for the gutter press Reporter Rentaro Mikuni is assigned to the story Sendai refuses to comment, but Mikuni tracks down the ladys sister, Yoko Katsuragi, who is living with her father, Chishu Ryu He is a lapsed Buddist priest, who has given up on faith and man and now lives in a cabin in the snowy mountains Miss Katsuragi leads Mikuni to her sister, but she likewise refuses to say anything printworthy Mikuni returns to the city and confers with his editor, Masayuki Mori He knew Miss Awashima ten years earlier as a friend Actually, he had loved her, but never said anything definite Now, with this situation, he sees an opportunity Meanwhile, Mikuni digs into leads and realizes he loves Miss Katsuragi and wants to marry her, even though she is dying There are times when, looking at some Japanese movies, I am convinced that plot drives character, rather than the other way either that, or the Japanese are so very alien that I cannot understand them at all Perhaps that is because the Japanese audience knows the first part of the story, and doesnt need to recapitulate it They are content to get to the good parts, like grandmother smashing her own teeth so she can commit suicide, or a couple who stay married so they may torment each other The Japanese know what came before, so the tale can begin in medias res, with Hansel and Gretel devouring a gingerbread cottage, or Cinderellas stepsisters cutting off their toes If you dont understand the situation, youre utterly confused, while the intended audience can say Ah Ive seen this before This is the good part and be happy to havent wasted any time on the boring stuff that everyone knows anyway Keisuke Kinoshitas movie is about many things It is about corruption and the line between private and public life, the horrid state of Japanese laws about marriage, the conviction that saving face is more important than what you really do, and about the arousal of love that turns into obsession and makes you do things that look absolutely insane if you came into the movie half an hour late as if the plot were driving the characters instead of the other way around That would be my reaction The Japanese audience of the time would have probably nodded their heads and whispered This is the good part Fortunately, I watched this from the beginning, and nod my head in pleasure at a story that makes its own, weird sense
