And with this exquisite ghost story, a fatalistic wartime tragedy based on stories by Akinari Ueda and Guy de Maupassant, he created a cornerstone of his art, where his long takes and sweeping camera guide the viewer through a delirious tale of two villagers whose pursuit of fame and fortune leads them far away from their loyal wives. Ugetsu moves between the earthly and the otherworldly, revealing essential truths about the ravages of war, the plight of women, and the pride of men.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUgetsu was restored by The Film Foundation and Kadokawa Corporation at Cineric Laboratories in New York.
