DESCRIPTION:Dir. Kenji Mizoguchi. 1933\, 96 mins. 16mm print with Benshi so
 undtrack from the Japan Foundation. With Takako Irie\, Tokihiko Okada. A l
 ate silent\, White Threads of the Waterfall is also the earliest of Mizogu
 chi’s extant “women’s pictures.” This adaptation of a shinpa (non-traditio
 nal melodrama) play concerns a circus performer\, Taki\, who goes beyond h
 er means to support the young law-school student whom she loves. After cir
 cumstances force Taki to crime\, she goes before the court and the presidi
 ng judge—none other than her lover\, who must blindly mete out what passes
  for justice. According to film theorist Noël Burch\, in the character of 
 Taki we can see “the prototype of Mizoguchi’s rebellious heroines.” \n\n\n
