Portrait of Madame Yuki (雪夫人絵図 Yuki fujin ezu?) aka A Picture of Madame Yuki, is a 1950 black and white Japanese film directed by Kenji Mizoguchi.



“...of all the kinds of decay in this world, decadent purity is the most malignant.” 
― Yukio Mishima, Confessions of a Mask

“What I wanted was to die among strangers, untroubled, beneath a cloudless sky. And yet my desire differed from the sentiments of that ancient Greek who wanted to die under the brilliant sun. What I wanted was some natural, spontaneous suicide. I wanted a death like that of a fox, not yet well versed in cunning, that walks carelessly along a mountain path and is shot by a hunter because of its own stupidity…” 
― Yukio Mishima, Confessions of a Mask

“For a long time I had not approached the forbidden fruit called happiness, but it was now tempting me with a melancholy persistence. I felt as though Sonoko were an abyss above which I stood poised.” 
― Yukio Mishima, Confessions of a Mask
