TOMATOMETER
4 stars out of 4 -- Shot strikingly without fuss in black-and-white TohoScope....A melancholy treat...
USA Today
...It's a wonderful film....The whole cast is superb....Naruse's greatest strength lay in his dark vision...
Los Angeles Times
[T]he depictions of human foibles and frailties are exquisitely nuanced...
Sight and Sound
[T]his might be described as a Japanese version of a Douglas Sirk melodrama. Takamine Hideko's stoic central performance is heartbreaking.

Best Japan Film Ever Made
Movie Lover: Kent Kampo from
MADISON, WI US -- April, 16, 2012
An aging bar girl tries to find love and security before it is too late. Through all the lies from men she neglects the real love right under her nose. Hideko Takamine, Japans greatest, all time actress, gives a performance of her life. I believe after watching and collecting Japan/Asia movies for many years, this is the GREATEST JAPANESE FILM EVER MADE!
