This film, which was director Kenji Mizoguchi's dream project, was severely under-financed, and the production was forced to use a warehouse instead of a regular sound stage. This warehouse happened to be located near railways, and each time a train passed by, they had to stop shooting, which made the shooting of the film even more difficult with the director's obsessive use of long, continuous, uninterrupted takes. The same warehouse was also used for Josef Von Sternberg's film 'The Saga of Anatahan'.
This is Jacques Rivette's favorite film.
The film is included on Roger Ebert's "Great Movies" list.
This film has a 100% rating based on 15 critic reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.
This film is part of the Criterion Collection, spine #664.
