Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)

Memoirs of a Geisha does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is entirely centered on heterosexual relationships and the challenges faced by women within the traditional geisha system, leading to a classification of N/A for LGBTQ+ portrayal.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film "Memoirs of a Geisha" is an adaptation of the novel by Arthur Golden. All major characters, including Sayuri, Mameha, Hatsumomo, Nobu, and the Chairman, maintain their original genders as established in the source material. There are no instances of characters being portrayed as a different gender than their canonical or historical representation.

The film adapts a novel about Japanese geisha, casting Chinese and Malaysian-Chinese actors in lead roles. While this represents an ethnic/national shift, the broader racial category (East Asian) remains consistent with the source material, thus not meeting the definition of a race swap.
