Battle of Roses (Japanese: 薔薇合戦, romanizedBara kassen) is a 1950 Japanese drama film directed by Mikio Naruse. It is based on the pre-war novel Bara kassen by Fumio Niwa.[2][3]

Reception

[edit | edit source]

Naruse biographer Catherine Russell rated Battle of Roses a lesser work by its director, which seemed "to have been hastily put together, with some surprisingly abrupt editing and a rather poor script […] drawing on the sensationalism of the “liberated” woman.[4]

Notes
