La storia dell'ultimo crisantemo

Mizoguchi does not exactly traffic in light comedy. A male Kabuki actor, pampered as the adopted son of his famous father, realizes his acclaim is unearned. Spurned, he runs off with a woman from his household to make his own name in Osaka. It's a melodrama that is indeed very long.
