I really really really liked this film, more so than Tale of Two Sisters, because it played out so beautifully, like a properly strung violin. I think what made me like this film most was Eihi Shiina's character. When the movie first starts, you are introduced to this lovely, soft spoken girl that, on the outside, seems like a delicate dove who wouldn't be able to even hurt a fly, but half way through the film you are introduced to this dark side of her that you would have never thought existed. I really liked how the director chose to have her wear white throughout the film, considering white symbolizes virginity, purity, and healing: everything that she isn't. Highly recommended, go out now and see this treasure! 8.5/10
