Sofia Coppola's latest film, "The Beguiled," will be released nationwide on February 23, 2018, including at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills.

This is the sixth feature film from Sofia Coppola, who continues to reign as an icon for women around the world, not only in the film industry but also in the fashion world. At the 70th Cannes Film Festival in May, this much-talked-about film achieved the remarkable feat of becoming only the second woman in history to win the Best Director award, and the first in 56 years for a female director. This thrilling love-hate drama unfolds when a wounded soldier stumbles into a closed-off girls' school during the Northern and Southern Dynasties era. It's a "new frontier" that completely overturns Sofia Coppola's ultra-popular and cute worldview. While the original novel was previously adapted into a film in 1971, starring Clint Eastwood, this film isn't a remake; it's a fresh take on the original, depicting it from a female perspective. Furthermore, the cast is perhaps the most impressive in the history of Sofia Coppola films. Nicole Kidman plays the school's order-enslaving principal, Elle Fanning plays a devilish student, Kirsten Dunst plays a pure-hearted teacher in love, and Colin Farrell plays a wounded soldier. Seven beautiful women live at a secluded all-girls boarding school in the American South. One day, they encounter a wounded enemy soldier from the north and bring him to their mansion to treat him. As they interact with this handsome man who is both gentlemanly and gentle with the women, they are all captivated by him. However, they are gradually overcome by lust and dangerous jealousy. What decision will they ultimately make - to maintain order or to give in to their desires? An uninvited man appears in the closed garden of women. Watch out for this love-hate drama of pure white saints whose hearts are stirred and their instincts are revealed.
