Have not been able to catch Memoirs of a Geisha yet. I have been looking for it on cable. Looks like it could be a compelling story.

I read the book, which was right on target from what I learned in Asian History in college of their lives.

My favorite quote from the book, which immediately made me think of horse racing is; "Some people have difficulty telling the difference between something great and something they've simply heard of"
