[Movie] When a Women Ascends the Stairs (1960)

An old Japanese black and white movie featuring the uneasy life of a 30-year old prostitute with an uncertain future. At the time this was a highly controversial movie, I suppose, and it doesn’t have any romantic//sex scenes at all, but rather gives an insight in how the prostitutes lived and thought, from an angle of experience. The whole thing is filmed good, and doesn’t get boring despite it’s old age.. The genre is a mix of comedy/drama and tiny bit of romance. I wouldn’t have found this movie if it hadn’t been for the Japanese course I go to, so thank you Japanese course. If you’re colorblind, this won’t skew your vision at all. Take a look. 😛
