		The architecture of the museum is based on Mishima's western-style residential home.

	DVD of the Week: (9/8/2001): Mishima (Site not responding. Last check: )

		In his youth, Mishima was a shy, cloistered child with a stammer and (if the film is to be believed) the nascent beginnings of his homosexual attractions.

	Mishima Yukio
		Her suicide is much simpler, however; after dragging her kimono through her husband's blood a number of times in her preparations, she stabs herself in the throat with a dagger, there is the closing rock-garden tableau, and the short film is over.
		Much of Mishima might be read this way, as sensational self-dramatization aimed at wealth and notoriety, for he kept himself constantly in public view, writing, directing, and acting in plays and movies, posing for photographic essays on physical culture, or making news through the activities of his small private army.
		It was a state of being which the later Mishima rejected in a way that is very appealing to me, by going back into his own tradition for a nobler identity--by deciding in his middle years to be the hero he knew he was not when he was twenty-three.

	ThingsAsian \| Mishima's Last Words: The Sea of Fertility Part I: Tokyo , Japan : Literature : ThingsAsian
		Aristocratic elegance is contrasted unfavorably in Spring Snow with the resolution of the samurai, which had enjoyed centuries of "immunity to the virus of elegance" and "the virus of introspection."
