Film Memoirs of a Geisha (Rob Marshall, 2005)

Last week (Tuesday January 24?), I saw Memoirs of a Geisha at a local theatre. I've not read the book, but I do have an affinity for Japanese culture (I visited Japan in 2005, teach a course on the Japanese film maker Yasujiro Ozu, and have studied Japanese culture in a graduate course). It was a sad story and a well-made film; I'm glad I saw it.
