UGETSU MONOGATARI (1953) - REMASTERED
Mizoguchi's masterpiece.... set against the backdrop of the feudal wars of 16th-century Japan UGETSU is a gorgeous supernatural fable about the folly of men with dreams larger than their abilities and their women who suffer as a result.
Genjuro is a potter who longs for wealth and luxury, while Tobei, a farmer, dreams of the glories of the Samurai to the point of ignoring his wife.
Though a war rages around them, they venture to town to sell their wares. Genjuro becomes bewitched by a beautiful though vengeful ghost, while his wife is murdered by a soldier; meanwhile Tobei becomes a noted warrior, while his wife descends into prostitution after being raped while searching for her husband.
UGETSU is often cited by critics as one of the greatest films ever made, a supernatural 16th-century war story.
