I would call this a character portrait of a relationship, but also of two very intriguing characters. Both Watts and Norton do their parts justice. I just learned that Garbo played Kitty in a 30's version. I would be curious to see it.
It was elegant and carefully crafted. A languorous, intimate look at this deeply disturbed relationship set in gorgeous, otherworldly early 20th century China.
Not great, but recommended.
