A fine and well-crafted female melodrama from one of the masters of Japanese thrillers. Just a tad too talky, and a tad too weepy, but it has a lot to say about the status of Japanese gender politics during a volatile period in the culture.

A very seemingly simple mystery that turned out to be a bit more twisty than expected.
