Review of Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983) by Eric J — 17 Dec 2011
What a surpising film. The score, although dated was thought-provoking and fitting of the overall tone. The Interment Camp subject matter is handled a little lighter than in most films about that topic, and Ryuichi Sakamoto is FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC as the sexually confused antagonist (antihero?) Takeshi too runs away as another excellent antihero.
Iconic.
