Note de fulci_lives82
Urotsukidoji is a textbook example of Epic. This film is HUGE and is very, very complex. Sure the Japanese have a somewhat misogynist view on things but who are we to judge them? It's about culture. Urotsukidoji boiled down to the essentuals is basically about the search for the meaning of life (and destiny), morality, yes! sexuality BUT in context if you look at it the films are about doomed love.
I don't have time to go into the ins and outs but if you look at the series using a feminist perspective one will find that the series actually treats all characters with the same distain. Yes, the destruction of the female principle is there (fascism reference- justified once again by the context of the series as A WHOLE) but it is the female characters that have the most depth. Take Megume for example, the so-called 'slut' archetype. if you look closer to the overall story her storylines are much more philosophical.
Take even Amano, who at the begining takes a certain ambivalence to other people's suffering, towards the end he becomes more humanist. Take his metaphor of nature (how it goes round and round), we live and die then become one with the world. (See also THE WICKER MAN (1973))
I could go on but it is far too complex to get into. I suggest reading up on Japanese tradition and mythology...I think you'll find your basic Shakespeare play will have all if not more of the 'deviant' themes that Urotsukidoji has. The difference? Books are treated with reverence...film's aren't. Why? cos Nazi's burned books but what people forget is they also suppressed film. Why? because they knew it had a power over the population that books didn't. (See 'Triumph of the Will' for an example of their abuse of film's emotive qualities).
Nuff said!
