Keith Uhlich Slant Magazine Apart from You is finally all frustrated anticipation. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 7, 2006 Full Review Michael Barrett PopMatters Emotional content achieves a balance of humane restraint and open expression, as underlined by his choices of camera movement and sometimes very expressive editing. In other words, the film packs a punch. May 5, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

william d The story may not be particularly sophisticated, even by early 1930s cinema standards, but it is very well done. Sumiko Mizukubo is a beautiful lady and a decent actress. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member One of Mikio Naruse's earliest works surviving, ï 1/2¢å>とå¥ã,てï 1/2£ is a heartbreaker. The 'business' of Geishas were becoming much less acceptable as a form of work, and the story centers around an aging geisha, her teenage son, and another younger geisha who falls in love with the son. Naruse also seems to have a thing for injury by moving vehicle, whether it be a train, a car, or a bicycle. This one (a little spoiler) doesn't have one, but there is one exceptionally devastating scene towards the end. And the final frame of the film followed by the title is one of the most masterful moments I've seen in any movie. A perfect marriage of final frame and title. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
