Review :
INTERESTING, FOR ONE-TIME RENTAL ONLY
Interesting documentary. Female narrator speaks throughout, in English with British accent. There are no written subtitles, for hearing impaired. The documentary gives an overall view of the way of life, history, business, traditions, rules, etc. At one point, it focuses back and forth on a certain maiko and her maiko life and regular-girl life. There are interviews with certain male teahouse clients, that are on the elite list allowed in to the teahouses. There is traditional Japanese background music throughout the documentary. The current life of a geisha/maiko now and many years ago, are also discussed. There were parts here and there that seemed to drag on, or weren't interesting. As for my own taste, if they interviewed more geiko/geisha and more maiko, it would have been more interesting. Also, if they showed the geiko/maiko life, from sunrise to sundown (following one certain girl, for example), it would have given a more personal idea of what it's like to be in the...
"Geisha: Twilight of the flowers"
I enjoyed the movie very much. It was a good story line, integrating the cultural mystery, preciseness, beauty and of geisha. I will watch it again. Very beautiful!

A Fantastic Documentary!
I have read Mine Iwasaki's auto-biography as well as Arthur Golden's "Memoirs of a Garish" which is also said to be about Ms. Iwasaki's experiences. This documentary is also quite good and a fairly decent glimpse into the forbidden world of a modern day Geisha and just exactly how intense an ancient art form it truly is. I have lived in Japan and had spent a considerable amount of time in Kyoto, specifically Gion, in order to get a more in depth glimpse into that fascinating world. This documentary successfully does just that. I do wish it went a bit deeper and more detailed, but that is just a personal wish and in no way a slight to the quality of production or content of this film. Highly recommended and very interestingand fun to watch. (I also highly recommend Ms. Iwasaki's books, as well!)

Review :
Moving film with heart
It's hard to review this without giving the story away too much. It is a story about love and relationships: not just romantic relationships but between parents and children. It has its light romantic side in among that.
However it also has deeper messages for Indian traditionalists. I gather that traditionally many Indian women do not remarry when they are widowed but are condemned to live a perpetual bereavment with their in-laws.
The movie challenges traditional values and looks to a higher wisdom and greater heart as relevant principles when this happens. So it is also a compassionate movie. It is also about putting ones own ego aside for the sake of others happiness and coming from love instead.
Amitabh Bachchan plays a man of great wisdom, heart and integrity and anchors the movie. It is a moving performance. The other actors similarly do a solid job. A lot is asked of Rani Mukerjee and she rises to it with a breadth of acting and response.
Her 2 love...
Baabul
Baabul Dvd has sound issues, you can't hear the dialogs well from the middle, picture quality is good and sub tiles are Ok.

Well-acted movie portraying different facets of love
"Baabul" stars iconic Bollywood film star Amitabh Bachchan as a progressive father-in-law who displays true love and understanding towards his widowed daughter-in-law {Rani Mukherjee] after his son [Salman Khan] is killed in a car crash. Despite societal conventions that typically dictate a widow is to spend the rest of her natural life in mourning for her dead husband, a society that disdains the idea of remarriage [yes, even in contemporary society], this father-in-law tries to get his daughter-in-law a new lease on life by encouraging her to love again , in the form of John Abraham, her old friend who has loved her for years.

The part that did annoy me [and hence only 4 instead of 5 stars] was the way the movie portrayed men making important decisions, irrespective of what the women thought or desired - the mother-in-law in the movie [played by Hema Malini] is against her daughter-in-law's remarrying, and Rani Mukherjee who plays the role of the daughter-in-law is hardly...
