Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Great movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A Japanese pow camp is the setting for a great movie featuring David Bowie, Tom Conte and Ruichi Sakamoto. It was not your typical pow films with brutal 1 dimensional camp guards, they are more human and the lies a not typical movies cliches either
