Review of The Ballad of Narayama (1983) by Art S — 08 Apr 2013
A tragic and thought-provoking examination of poverty-induced euthanasia. And yet, its presentation is almost an advanced kabuki theatre. The colored lighting was very dramatic but the settings felt very staged (as per the aforementioned kabuki style) despite being pretty realistic.
