I did go see this movie over the Holidays and I have to say I am impressed. I received the book as a Christmas gift from my father and had yet to even start it when I saw the movie. I'm glad I did. The movie was very enlightening into the world of Geishas, which many have branded as mere painted whores. It also gives some insight into a post war Japan struggling to regain it's identity.
I have since started the book, and it is very descriptive, very beautiful and contains a lot more indepth detail. Words of advice: WATCH MOVIE FIRST, READ BOOK LATER!!!!
