Review

The nineteenth-century-set The Ballad of Narayama (1983) examines the ancient tradition of a Japanese village in which anyone who turns seventy must depart for a mountain in order to die there. Sumiko Sakamoto portrays sixty-nine-year-old Orin, who is bent on finding a wife for her son Tatsuhei (Ken Ogata) before it’s her turn to hit the hills. Fortunately this leads to some sweet body baring on the part of potential spouses, which will have you singing the naked praises of this Ballad.
