A sociopathic student takes revenge on a changing society by seducing wealthy women in Mikio Naruse’s brooding noir.

Windows on Worlds
Naruse paints the predicament of a middle aged woman in post-war Japan with great subtlety and grace. His frame-within-a-frame shots are masterful. Reiko, a young widow bound by tradition and duty, she doesn't quite know how to react when faced with the declaration of love. It's a marvelous acting by Hideko Takamine. The ending is quite melodramatic but all worth it for a long tracking shot of Reiko running in the backdrop of a beautiful northern town. #yearning #mikionaruse #japanesecinema
