    The war of women, the strange sexual psychology of the Japanese... 90% of a scene is night scenes, and the film has been dragged to four stars by god-like photography.

"Memoirs of a Geisha" is like this. Although it has a beautiful and gorgeous setting, Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li and...

Memoirs of a Geisha quotes

  • Narrator (Old Sayuri): [during the war while young Sayuri is working for the kimono maker] A year without news, except news of death. Rumors of citites evaporating into clouds of smoke. And than another year and another... Nothing. Rice... Work... Rice... Work... Nothing.
