I was surprised enough to find that it took them just shy of a year to get this sequel enough, but this is hardly anything like "Diary of a Mad Black Woman", partly because geishas try to make themselves as white as possible, and largely because this film is actually good melodrama. Seriously though, this film is a fairly different project for Marshall, although, more than that, it is way different from its predecessor. Between the American jazz dancers of "Chicago" and the Italian crooners of "Nine", Rob Marshall paid a visit to Japan, and even there, all he did was see about their dancing industry, so he really is a "gaysha". Trippy how a Chinese woman is playing Japanese, but hey, Zhang Ziyi, that kind of profiling is what you get when you have Americans make a film like this. Rating: PG-13 (Some Sexual Content|Mature Subject Matter) Life is good for Sayuri, but World War II is about to disrupt the peace. After rigorous years of training, Chiyo becomes Sayuri (Ziyi Zhang), a geisha of incredible beauty and influence. There, she is forced into servitude, receiving nothing in return until the house's ruling hierarchy determines if she is of high enough quality to service the clientele - men who visit and pay for conversation, dance and song. In the 1920s, 9-year-old Chiyo (Suzuka Ohgo) gets sold to a geisha house.
