Yoshiwara historical drama film directed by Max Ophüls and starring Pierre Richard-Willm , Sessue Hayakawa and Michiko Tanaka . It is based on a novel of the same title by Maurice Dekobra .[1] Joinville Studios of Pathé in Paris and on location at the Musée Albert-Kahn in Billancourt and in Rochefort-en-Yvelines and Villefranche-sur-Mer . The film's sets were designed by the art directors André Barsacq and Léon Barsacq .
Synopsis [ edit ]
The film is set in the Yoshiwara , the red-light district of Tokyo , in the nineteenth century. It depicts a love triangle between a high-class prostitute, a Russian naval officer and a rickshaw man.[2]
Reception [ edit ]
The film was Ophüls' greatest pre-war French financial success.[3] Yoshiwara proved controversial in Japan where the government objected to the depiction of Japanese brothels and banned it. There was a negative reaction against the two Japanese actors who had starred in the film, and they were labelled as traitors.[4]
