"Taki No Shiraito (The Water Magician)" One of the most popular titles from the silent film work of Kenji Mizoguchi, this tale of tragic love realistically depicts the beauty and strength of the women of the Meiji Era. Takako Irie, who plays the main character, the water magician Taki no Shiraito, was one fo the greatest stars of Japanese cinema in that period, and a symbol of glamour and dignified beauty. The presence of co-star Tokihiko Okada enriches the film.
" Tokyo Koshinkyoku (Tokyo March)" This classic melodramatic love tragedy addresses social inequality in feudal Japan, depicted in Kenji Mizoguchi's typical style. The nostalgic scenes of Tokyo in the 1920s are a valuable visual experience, and are set against the background of the title song, "Tokyo March". |
