I watched the silent movie A Story of Floating Weeds a while ago. I've seen Floating Weeds years ago and thought it was amazing. This is the superior remake. Machiko Kyo was one of my favorite actresses when I was in my early 20's. She was in classic movies like Gate of Hell and Rashomon. She is great as a villain here. An actor decides to visit his wife after many years and meet his grown-up son. His mistress Machiko is jealous so she gets an actress to play the son's interested lover. Only things don't go as planned. This movie is simply fantastic.
