    Pleasant but a bit dull

    Not a new subject and nothing new to say. This is a pleasant moral tale about a naive young single kimono maker who knowingly becomes involved with a married professor. She knows he's married, because his daughter is instrumental to their meeting. Some lovely Kyoto scenery and fairly good performances make up for the lack of originality or any particular flair.
