This was the third film version of Junichiro Tanizaki's novel that might be described as an eccentric Pygmalion. A middle-aged businessman takes in an orphan girl with intentions of raising her to be a proper lady who might eventually become his wife. But it is the girl who gains control. She takes advantage of her sugar-daddy's doting to get whatever she wants, coquettishly playing on his less than honorable intentions. After years of being cuckolded, the poor fool is still her slave. (Source: MyDramaList) ~~ Adapted from the novel "Chijin no Ai" (痴人の愛) by Tanizaki Junichiro (谷崎潤一郎). Edit Translation
