The main reason is because at the time Mishima's widow would not allow certain subjects to come to light. For instance, his politics, his homosexuality, and his suicide. So Shrader had to go through his writings and based the film on those writings. It is one of the best films about a writer. -- Tosh Berman TamTam Books http://www.tamtambooks.com
