When considering what to write in a review after having seen Memoirs of a Geisha it is difficult not to think that this movie is very much what Titanic could have been. The film is as beautiful as the characters are graceful and the story, while revolving around a very specific time period in a very specific locale and within a specific culture, tells a universal story of romance that is both charming and to which one can easily relate.

Wes Anderson’s first film stars Owen Wilson and Luke Wilson as Dignan and Anthony Adams, respectively.   When Dignan is released from a mental hospital where he had been being treated for depression, Anthony Adams joins up with Dignan and the two begin practicing and planning to become criminals of some sort.
