I'm bad with getting the facts straight, but I think this was a fictionalized story written by an American man?
Yah..but I think it is historical fiction, or I thought it was. I thought the author acurately described the life style of a Geisha.
i can agree with that.
yeah...i saw an interview with the two stars: michelle yeoh and what's-her-name. they were saying how surprised they were to meet the author after having been impressed with the screenplay
I thought he was Japanese and someone translated it for him.... Did anyone see the movie?? I really want to see it, but I've heard that they play up the child prostitution aspect of it more than in the book... any thoughts?
