Guilty of Romance (2011) (DVD) (English Subtitled) (Hong Kong Version)
Welcome to Love’s Inferno
Japanese cinema’s enfant terrible Sono Sion takes audiences on a perverse journey into the darkest corners of Tokyo with Guilty of Romance. Like Love Exposure and Cold Fish before it, Guilty of Romance is inspired by a real-life crime, a murder committed in the love hotel district of Shibuya. From there, Sono concocted an epic exploration of sexuality and depravity surrounding the lives of three women the repressed wife of a famous author, a university professor with a secret life, and the detective assigned to investigate a grisly murder. The result is a twisted and disturbing black comedy-thriller that could only come from the mind of Sono Sion.
A dead body has been found in a run-down building in Shibuya’s love hotel district, and police detective Kazuko (Mizuno Miki) has been assigned to the case. From the clues left behind, the cops begin to suspect the body is that of Izumi (Kagurazaka Megumi), the wife of a respected novelist. Repressed by her husband to be an obedient wife, Izumi tastes freedom for the first time when she decides to take a part-time job and is scouted to star in an adult film. Her sexual liberation is taken to extremes when she meets Mitsuko (Togashi Makoto), a professor of literature who also moonlights as a prostitute at night. Over the course of the investigation, the happily married Kazuko also seems to be hiding a perverse secret life of her own…
