For me, a dream come true. Mizoguchi is the greatest Japanese director, according to Kurosawa, Ozu, and practically all the critics. And here -- pow! -- four movies impossible to find anywhere else. It's called the "Fallen Women" series. Like most Eclipse boxes, a must-buy.

OSAKA ELEGY
SISTERS OF THE GION
STREET OF SHAME
WOMEN OF THE NIGHT

On preorder from Amazon it's $40 plus change. I'm really psyched about this because I just bought two Mizoguchi boxes from the British "Masters of Cinema" series and there are no overlaps.

Good, good movies with a feminist slant.
Life is just a bowl of cherries, it's too mysterious, don't take it serious...

Thanks for the heads up Paul....I'll take a look see at these.
It's like Rodney King used to say, "Can't we all get a bong."
