I checked the Japanese and Chinese previews of the movie. Very interesting. Here's one opinion:
Chinese: It appears to focus in the harshness that she endures to become a geisha. She must use manipulation to influence those around her and try to achieve being the best.
Japanese: This preview seems to focus on the love story. She is a little girl and sees a man that she must be with. She risks it all to be a geisha and eventually sacrifices all to try and be with him.
Am I talking about the same movie? I recomend others to go and check out the two movie previews. I would like to hear others interpretations. I have not seen the movie yet so obviously some of my assumptions from the previews are not completely accurate.
