Review of My Geisha (1962) by Hunter E — 18 Aug 2014
An excellent movie that is both a touching romance between a married couple and a sympathetic homage to Japanese culture well before that became fashionable. Both MacLaine and Montand give stellar performances.
There is never a false note as the ingenious but straightforward plot moves quickly along and reaches a conclusion that is emotionally satisfying without being obvious. The journey is enhanced by superb location shots and the background story and music of Puccini's opera Madame Butterfly.
