Curiosità
Wife! Be Like a Rose!, also titled Kimiko, is a 1935 Japanese comedy drama film directed by Mikio Naruse. It is based on the shinpa play Futari tsuma by Minoru Nakano and one of Naruse's earliest sound films. Wife! Be Like a Rose! was one of the first Japanese films to see a theatrical release in the United States. It was voted "The Best Japanese Film of the Year" in 1935 by critics of the prestigious film magazine Kinema Junpo.
Background
Naruse had joined P.C.L. studios (soon to merge into Toho) only the year before, unhappy with the working conditions at his former studio Shochiku. Wife! Be Like a Rose! received the 1936 Kinema Junpo Award as Best Film of the Year and opened in New York in 1937 under the title Kimiko.
