In a few hours you’ll see another post related to Sion Sono but to start off the day I thought I’d ease you into him with a new poster for his next film, Guilty of Romance. The film stars Miki Mizuno as Kazuko the police officer, Megumi Kagurazaka as Izumi the housewife, and Makoto Togashi as Mitsuko, a literature professor/hooker.If the synopsis below is a true indication of what we can expect then I think this is going to be one hell of a movie. Definitely a good follow-up to his bloody drama Cold Fish. Check out the poster to the left and be sure to read the synopsis below. Thanks to Twitch for the details and poster.
Synopsis: Set just before the turn of the 21st century, a grisly murder occurs in Maruyama-cho, Shibuya — a love hotel district — a woman was found dead in a derelict apartment in the pouring rain. Whilst the police investigate, the story interweaves with that of Izumi, the wife of a famous romantic novelist whose life seems just a daily repetition without romance. One day, to break away from the loveless monotony, she decides to follow her desires and accepts a job as a naked model faking sex in front of the camera. Soon she meets with a mentor and starts selling her body to strangers, whilst at home she hides behind the facade that she is still the wife she is supposed to be.
