After reading Memoirs of a Geisha, its suitability for adaptation is as follows:
Quality: 9/10
Golden's writing style and story-telling is very easy to follow and should hopefully manifest itself into the screen version.
Tense: 6/10
Inappropriate. Jumps tense a lot and recounts random stories in people's lives. Structure will have to be re-arranged totally.
Detail: 7/10
It's very detailed. Will be hard capturing all of the detail in a motion picture.
Overall Suitability: 7.5/10
Not an easy job but if anyone can do it, it's Marshall. Another showy picture to direct, he will thrive on this. He has his work cut out though.
