خاطرات یک گیشا ، فیلم زیباییست...داستان زندگی یک دختربچه که با خواهرش فروخته می شوند تا یک " گیشا" تربیت شوند...گیشا یک فاحشه نیست. بلکه با رقصیدن ، اجرای نمایش ، درواقع فروشنده زیبایی و هنر زنانه خود است :
Remember, Chiyo, geisha are not courtesans. And we are not wives. We sell our skills, not our bodies. We create another secret world, a place only of beauty. The very word "geisha" means artist and to be a geisha is to be judged as a moving work of art.
و فیلم زندگی گیشایی را نشان میدهد که از کودکی عاشق مردی میشود تا زندگیش دیگر بی محتوا نباشد..بلکه با نقش داشتن در زندگی دیگری ، معنی بگیرد..مردی که محبتی کوچک به او کرده بود..وقتی کودکی درمانده و گریان بود ، برای او بستنی خرید و در مقابل از او خواست تنها برایش لبخند بزند..:

Chairman: It is too pretty a day to be so unhappy. Did you fall down? Why so shy? Nothing to be ashamed of, we all stumble from time to time. Do you see that enchanting lady in green? Once when she was just a myiko, she fell clean off her wooden shoes. [laughs]

Geisha in Green: [laughs] It's true I did.

Chairman: And now look at her, so elegant...

Geisha in Green: Mr. Chairman, shouldn't we hurry? We will miss the beginning.

Chairman: We see the spring dances every year, we can spare a moment. What's your name? Don't be afraid to look at me. Do you like sweet plum or cherry?

Chiyo: You mean...to eat?

Chairman: I like sweet plum myself. Come. None of us find as much kindness in this life, as we should. My children wait for these every spring. [hands her the ice and spoon.]

Chiyo: [looks at geisha by the tree, smears some of the cherry ice on her lips.] Now I'm a geisha too.

Chairman: [laughs] And so you are. How did you come by such surprising eyes?

Chiyo: My mother gave them to me.

Chairman: Generous of her, wasn't it?

Chiyo: As you have been to me.

Chairman: Smile for me, won't you? [Chiyo smiles for him.]

Chairman: There now, that is your gift to me. [hands Chiyo his handkerchief with the change inside.]

Chairman: This will buy your supper. Now promise me one thing, next time you take a tumble...no frowns. [Chiyo nods]

Chairman: That's better. [leaves with geisha]

یکی از ساده ترین و زیبا ترین دیالوگهای فیلم ...

او صورتش را رنگ می کند که آنرا پنهان کند...اما زندگی یک گیشا برای احساسات نیست،برای دوست داشتن هم نیست.گیشا هنرمند دنیای شناور است.می رقصد..میخواند...تورا سرگرم میکند..هرچه بخواهی..باقی سایه است..باقی رمز و راز است...

She paints her face to hide her face. Her eyes are deep water. It is not for Geisha to want. It is not for geisha to feel. Geisha is an artist of the floating world. She dances, she sings. She entertains you, whatever you want. The rest is shadows, the rest is secret.

و در این میان مرد مورد علاقه او نیز اشتباهی بزرگ میکند...:

What could I do? I owe Nobu my life. And so when I saw that he had a chance at happiness with you, I stood silent, but...But I cannot any longer. I hope...it is not too late. Don't be afraid to look at me, Chiyo
