Taglines:

On November 25, 1970, Japan's greatest author Yukio Mishima commited an act that shocked the literary world...

Quotes:

Isao: By turning one's life into a line of poetry written in a splash of blood.

Yukio Mishima: I come out on the stage determined to make people weep. Instead, they burst out laughing.

Yukio Mishima (Narrator): All my life I have been acutely aware of a contradiction in the very nature of my existence. For forty-five years I struggled to resolve this dilemma by writing plays and novels. The more I wrote, the more I realized mere words were not enough. So I found another form of expression.

[referring to his "frog feet" and Mizoguchi's stuttering]::Mariko: Guys like us are just like beautiful girls. We get sick of always being stared at.

Yukio Mishima (Narrator): My need to transform reality was an urgent necessity, as important as three meals a day or sleep.

Mizoguchi: [stuttering] It was as s-small as this, but grew so big... it filled the world like... tremendous music. That's the p-p-power of beauty's eternity. It poisons us. It blocks out our lives.::Mariko: Please, enough of your pride! Beauty is like a rotten tooth. It rubs against your tongue, hurting, insisting on its importance. Finally you go to a dentist and have it pulled. Then you look at the small bloody tooth in your hand and say, "Is that all it was?" That's the way it is.

Mariko: Only knowledge can turn life's unbearableness into a weapon.

Yukio Mishima (Narrator): I wanted to explode, light the sky for an instant and disappear.

Natsuo: Even the most beautiful body is soon destroyed by age. Where is beauty then? Only art makes human beauty endure. You must devise an artist's scheme to preserve it. You must commit suicide at the height of your beauty.

[Kiyomi cuts Osamu's bare chest. Osamu looks up, surprised]::Kiyomi: It's just a little cut.::Osamu: Why?::Kiyomi: Your skin is so beautiful, I just had to cut it.::Osamu: [smiles] It felt pleasant.
