Two Second World War Movies Involving Japan
Japan had a significant role in the Second World War and these 2 movies (Tora, Tora tora and Bridge on the River Kawai) are worth a lookThe Bridge on the river Kawai
This 1957 war movie is a classic. It has an eternal tune ‘colonel Bogey’ that has become the marching tune for thousands of soldiers. As the years roll by this movie like old wine has matured with taste. It is an eternal classic and starred the top stars from England like Sir Alec Guinness and Jachk Hawkins. Directed by the legendary David Lean the film recounts the use of allied POW’s by the Japanese to construct a bridge in Siam. The British true to their ethos do what the Japanese ask them before they realize the enormity of what they have done in furthering the war for the Japanese. This movie made nearly 64 years back is one of the all time classics and one cannot be a loser if he or she watches it whatever his age.Content Source: Bukisa - Two Second World War Movies Involving Japan
