Title: Different WWII film that speaks to the war today
Product review: In my quest to see all of the great old films of WWII made in the 1940's, I bought this one and I'm glad I did!It's very different from the "typical" battle-action films; this one is set mainly in Japan where American Army Air Corps pilots are put on trial for "war crimes."In the course of their imprisonment, they are tortured to confess to crimes they didn't commit.They have no real lawyers.The Geneva Convention is never mentioned.They go bravely and proudly to their deaths by execution.All of it highlights not only the humane treatment we give enemy combatants now at Guantanamo Bay but also the fanatical aim of world domination of today's Islamofacist enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan is exactly like that of the Shinto/Bushido Japanese that we vanquished in WWII.This movie is really a must see that acurately portrays the enemy in wartime as truly evil with none of the moral equivalence that we get from Hollywood and the Media these days.
