The Pillow Book (DVD)

An arresting Japanese model seeks to indulge her fantasy of having calligraphy inked on her body, a whim based partly on her father's habit of painting poetry on her face when she was a girl and partly on readings from the 10th-century erotica tome The Pillow Book. But the tables are turned when she meets a bisexual English translator who wants to be her canvas instead. An assault on the senses in the best Greenaway tradition, featuring frames-within-frames, elaborate costuming and production design, painterly shot composition, and utterly frank scenes of nudity and violence.DVD Features:Region 1 EncodingInteractive MenusTheatrical TrailerScene Selections Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
