The truth is I adore this movie. But I'm not sure I recommend this movie. It's the story of a young idealistic writer who falls in love with an actress/courtesan, and trying to keep the rich investor of the show from knowing it. It's quite hokey, but embraces this hokiness with all out abandon. It's melodramatic and absurd, and is definitely not for everyone. But the visuals are wonderful. This was a movie really made for the big screen, and loses something when brought down to fit on your television. However, the actors are excellent, and the music is fun. But be warned, it is exceedingly hokey.
