Giving a touch of Asian-flavored "magic realism" to a premise that almost sounds like adult cinema, Japanese filmmaker Shohei Imamura ("The Eel") tells the story of an unemployed, unhappily married man who sets off in search of a stolen gold Buddha statue. What he finds, though, is even rarer: a woman whose body exudes a rush of water whenever she's nervous or excited...particularly in the throes of passion. Misa Shimizu, Koji Yakusho star. 119 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English; featurette. In Japanese with English subtitles.
