    The most unforgettable thing is when A Chun was introduced to a group of men as a negative teaching material under the leadership of an old man. Although A Chun was disappointed, he just picked up the money, smiled calmly, and turned to leave. This back is called two. One word: Resign. A powerful actress like Tanaka Kinyo is enough to support such a full...

    How tragic, separated from loved ones, separated from flesh and blood, abandoned by family, abandoned by flesh and blood... Probably the most tragic part of Mizoguchi's works, he told the suffering of his life in two and a half hours. Tanaka Kinyo is a bit reluctant to play this role.
