Review of Empire of the Sun (1987) by Jacob P — 30 Mar 2011
Beautiful movie well directed by Steven Speilberg and perfectly acted by John Malkovich! I will admit, I really didn't like the beginning but when it gotto the internment camp thats when the film got REALLY good.
It perfectly displays how prison camps can demoralize people in the sense that they fight over food and dead man's possessions, sort of example of 'survival of the fittest' per se. The main thing about this was the music, this is John Williams at his best, I have heard no other score that has moved me to tears so well as the score to this film! Great directing, music, storyline and John Malkovich gets this 5 out of 5 in my book!
