Memoirs of a Geisha

"Once upon a time, the shadow of the spectacle"

Every step I have taken, since I was that child on the bridge, has been to bring myself closer to you.

Sayori misty eyes

pure and sad, clear and peaceful

timid coquettish

"eyes like rain"

The rain is lingering and gentle

Like the tone of this film - restrained

Demonstrate the mysterious oriental culture from the perspective of Hollywood

The fluttering fallen leaves among the green pavilions of Jinghu Lake

The bond between Sayori and Chairman at a glance

Looking back, smiling, the flowing blue silk, the flying snow, the red lips, the graceful figure, she was breathing, what a beautiful scene, and finally became a geisha in the eyes of everyone.

Hatsomo, dressed in a black and white kimono like splashing ink, disappeared into the detoured streets and alleys reverberating with mist. I especially remember that she once loved someone; the most beautiful and famous geisha in Japan, Ma Miu, but she knew that the fate of a geisha can only be in this way.

Movie peeks into Japan's prosperity and grace

Shows the ups and downs of a geisha's life

Little Chiyo is so young and pure when she runs in the thousand torii gates

Thinking of visiting Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto in 2018⛩️

When I wrote the film review, I felt that it was a bit similar to the background of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"

I really like the setting of the love line. The Chairman is very mature and stable
