Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)

Memoirs of a Geisha (2005) In the 1920s, 9-year-old Chiyo gets sold to a geisha house. 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. After rigorous years of training, Chiyo becomes Sayuri, a geisha of incredible beauty and influence. Life is good for Sayuri, but World War II is about to disrupt the peace. ??Jwelch5742Awards: 32 wins & 47 nominations totalBudget: $85,000,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $162,242,962Soundtrack: Anata No Mono Yo (Written by Takao Saeki and Kouka Sassa)
