What is it about one work that would inspire another artist to re-explore his own views in that context? The similarities and differences between Akinaris Ugestu monogatari and Mizoguchis revisitation, Ugetsu, reveal tantalizing clues about their authors and the society in which they were created. Ugetsu monogatari is the product of Tokugawa-era Japan, a time of a restrictive government that censored works and even imprisoned authors if they voiced disagreement with government policy. Ugetsu was filmed in postwar Japan, while the American occupation impressed its own views upon the Japanese film industry. This thesis is an exploration of the factors that may have influenced the plotline and character protrayal in Ugetsu monogatari and Ugetsu. It examines the differences between Akinaris Ugetsu monogatari and Mizoguchis Ugetsu and questions why those differences exist.
