socalgranny-30982 Review of The Garden of Evening Mists

The Garden of Evening Mists (2019)

Depravity, midogyny, brutality, and violence

[1/10 · 26 September 2021]

This started out with a woman who had been brutalized by Japanese invaders in WWII finally getting a chance to even the score. But it quickly deteriorated into lengthy flashbacks of rape and torture. Her attraction to a cold, boring, and two faced "gardener" is capped with a horrific scene of masochistic tatooing and sex in a tub of water. It is depressing and the only way to get through it is with fast forward to the end where full Stockhom syndrome is on display. Avoid this one to stsy sane and happy.
