Heibei has his father blackmail Sadako’s family into an arranged marriage between himself and Sadako, and when she refuses, he rapes her.

A Love Story (Not Really)
When you have the pairing of Tatsuya Nakadai and Hideko Takamine, you have magic. This absorbing drama spans 29 years of a relationship between Heibei (Nakadai) and Sadako (Takamine) in which they more or less despise each other. The relationship was built on a lie from the beginning as Heibei, returning home from war a semi-cripple (he needs a cane) tells Sadako that her boyfriend Takashi (Keiji Sada), who was still at war, was probably killed. Obviously, he wants Sadako for himself. He rapes her and a pregnancy happens. Takashi comes back not wounded and finds out and vows they will flee together, but this never happens. So, in five distinct chapters, you see this couple’s marriage as what it really is: Filled with resentment, regret and overall enmity. There is not one chuckle in this film (in other words, its not over the top like “The War Of The Roses”). However, its so well acted by all three principal actors and it does not have a dull moment. Its about so many things. Mr. Kinoshita wrote and directed, doing a great job. Again, not a fun film, but for a fan of Nakadai, Takamine or even Mr. Sada, it is fairly essential viewing. I recommend it.

Decent, but lacking
Stellar cast (sugar), stellar cinematography (spice) and stellar story (everything nice). These were the ingredients to make the perfect little movie. But Keisuke Kinoshita accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction: wtf soundtrack level 9000. And thus you have the birth of Immortal Love, a movie I had high hopes for (especially with that Nakadai-Takamine duet) but only failed short– much blame due to the out of place flamenco/Mexican regional score which just had to play throughout the majority of this film and it was absolutely distracting and added this cringe-worthy sentimental feeling to lots of potentially enjoyable scenes.

This is my second Kinoshita film, and it had reminded me a lot of She Was Like A Wild Chrysanthemum mainly for the masterful shots of Japanese landscapes, and only now do I realize he’s the same director. I loved the first film, but I found this to be too dragging out. At least it’s pretty to look at, and plot-wise it’s not that complicated once the film gets going and you get used to the character’s names. Boyfriend and cripple guy come back from war. Cripple guy rapes girlfriend have baby, forced to get married. Bastard child grows up problematic for the family, second child is a some totalitarianist and gets in trouble with government, third daughter marries boyfriend’s son and cripple guy is like “seriously…” That’s roughly it, I’ll leave it up to you to get the names. Much of it is heavy family tension, and the constant bickering between the married couple can kinda seem unbuyable, but all somehow concludes in a relieving last minute sigh centred on forgiveness. My favourite scene would maybe be one of the attempted suicide scenes, one with rapids and the other in a volcano- don’t know how either of those were shot. I also don’t know the significance of the title “Immortal Love”? A film with nothing but unstable relationships? Seriously…
