The man who understood women

Where Akira Kurosawa filmed action and emotion through Hollywood filters and the great Yasujiro Ozu rained humanism on everything he touched, Mizoguchi -- the third of classic Japanese cinema's "big three" -- used historic epochs and neighborhood locales as settings for his eternal subject: the agony and ecstasy of womanhood.

Mostly agony, though.
