Tokyo Bordello (Yoshiwara Enjo)
Posted by the editors on Tuesday, 8 February 2011
Tokyo Bordello (Yoshiwara Enjo), 1987, (DVD), directed by Hideo Gosha with Yuki Natori, Sayoko Ninomiya and others, Scenario Kazuo Kasahara. The somber story of a young girl sold into prostitution by her destitute father, and her life in the Yoshiwara “pleasure” district of early 1900s Tokyo as a geisha. Rather well done, if superficial. Nevertheless, there are a number of scenes of striking beauty and pain. (PR)
