We’re off to Hollywood Japan this week as Kim and Alice re-discover the 2005 hit movie, Memoirs of a Geisha. We reveal the real-life betrayal at the heart of the story, examine the insidious mix of fact with Western fantasy and clarify that you really can just leave the kimono factory if you want to.
