월요일의 유카
Yuka's mother
요코하마 항구를 배경으로 영원한 ‘작은 악마’ 카가 마리코의 매력을 완벽하게 필름에 담은, 극히 포토제닉한 롤리타 스토리. “남자를 기쁘게 하는 게 여자가 살아가는 보람이잖아요”, “파파는 있지만 누구랑 해도 OK예요”, “몸은 괜찮지만 키스는 안 돼요, 크리스찬이거든요” 등, 윤리와 논리를 뛰어넘은 마리코의 교태와 매력 앞에 남자들은 허망하게 함락된다. 다큐멘터리 터치의 카메라워크와 무성코미디 영화의 슬랩스틱을 연상시키는 추격 액션, 프레임 조작을 많이 이용한 시간 처리 등 시각적인 실험들 또한 가득하다. 이러한 형식적 실험은 누벨바그에 대한 ‘스승’ 나카히라의 회답으로 평가받기도 했다. 시리즈의 사령관 역으로 유명한 나카오 아키라의 젊은 날의 미청년 모습 또한 충격적이다.

Mrs. Inokuma
The picture belongs to the jidai gekki (historic) genre. It is a powerful story of violence and eroticism, picturing a world at once sordid and poetic, with two central themes which intermingle to compound an admirable panel of a critical period in Japanese history: the great famine in the mid 19th Century.

White Beast
The critical establishment was clearly not prepared to accept a woman's prison film featuring former prostitutes recovering from venereal diseases, unwanted pregnancies, and estranged lovers. With its cat fights, hysterical tantrums, film noir lighting, and dramatic music, White Beast is indicative of the new influences of the Hollywood psychological thriller on Naruse. Caged (John Cromwell, 1950) initiated a cycle of women's prison movies in the United States that may or may not have been shown in Japan, but the stylistics of White Beast draw on the same paranoid woman's films and film noir conventions that preceded the American cycle.

화복 후편
Part 2 of a 2-part romance (fist part - Kafuku zempen) based on a story by noted author Kikuchi Kan. In the second half, we discover that Toyomi is pregnant -- and while Shintaro and Yurie are on their extended honeymoon, she bears his child, a girl named Kiyoko. She is supported in adversity by Michiko -- and gets considerable moral support from not only her own mother but also from Shintaro's mother and siblings. Even more surprisingly, Yurie strikes up a friendship of sorts with her. When Yurie learns that the child is Shintaro's, she convinces Toyomi that it would be best to let Shintaro (and her) raise Kiyoko, so Toyomi can get on with making a proper life for herself. Tearfully, Toyomi agrees. Sometime later, Michiko goes to visit Toyomi -- and sees her at work, as a kindergarten teacher.
