Dolls
Dolls takes puppeteering because of its motif the kind practiced in Bunraku doll theatre performances -- launching each section of the film with a narrative given by the puppets and their masters, that relates to the action provided by the live characters. Chief among those tales is that the narrative of Matsumoto (Hidetoshi Nishijima) and Sawako (Miho Kanno), a couple whose relationship is all going to be divided apart from the former's parents, that have insisted their kid take part in an arranged marriage to his boss' daughter. He initially agrees, evoking the unstable Sawako to become committed to a hospital. If he leaves his bride at the altar to save Sawako he realizes that she is therefore incapable of caring for himself that she wants to become tied to him with a red rope. Bound, the two drift through Japan, falling others on the way who have similarly overlooked love to get other, more pleasures: money, fame, power.
