What happens
Fukujusō (福寿草) est un film japonais muet de Jirō Kawate (ja), sorti en 1935. Il est adapté d'une nouvelle shōjo (pour filles) de Nobuko Yoshiya, Hana monogatari (« Contes de fleurs »), parue en feuilleton dans un magazine puis publiée en volume au Japon en 1924. Le titre original du film désigne l'adonis de printemps (Adonis ramosa), fleur symbolisant le bonheur et la longévité au Japon. Le titre complet est : 乙女シリーズ その一 花物語 福壽草 (litt. « Série de la jeune fille (Otome), premier volet — Conte de fleurs : L'Adonis »). Le titre anglais est The Scent of Pheasant's Eye, qui renvoie à une espèce voisine d'adonis. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
