A stately film adaption of Natsume Soseki’s novel of the same name. A love triangle between Daisuke, a young dilettante unable to find a place for himself in the new society of late-Meiji Japan, his opportunistic banker friend, and the banker’s unhappy wife who had earlier been the hero’s girlfriend. A visually arresting depiction of Tokyo at the turn of the century.
