The implied romance basically doesn’t happen I wonder if they just put the scene in so they could put some smooching on the poster. Like, you can work it from context easily enough, and it’s how those soldiers would have talked. I really like how this film just has characters speaking a mixture of mainland English and pidgin and does not give a fuck that it might be hard for the viewers to understand. But you’re not really there for the battle scenes - this is primarily a story about the soldiers and their lives before and during the war the most important scenes are the flashbacks and the ones of the soldiers just hanging out. The battle scenes happen a lot at night, presumably for the same reason. It’s quite stagey, which I take to be a function of its relatively low budget. Lane Nishikawa didn’t write this, but he did direct, produce and star in it. Over on Bad Movie Marathon, we get a little nervous when we find out that a film is written by, directed by and starring the same person. Is he hallucinating, or is he actually somehow having visions? It’s available on UK Amazon, and probably US as well.

Let’s take them in order.Ģ006’s Only the Brave is a little independent film that shifts between the battle to rescue the “Lost Battalion” of the 141st Infantry Regiment and the soldiers’ lives back in Hawaii through a series of flashbacks that begin with the main character, played by Lane Nishikawa, takes a head wound. It’s one of those stories that can’t help but be both inspiring and depressing at the same time.īoth of these films have plots, but they are really just intended to teach you about the 442nd and the Japanese-American experience of the war. I’m not going to go into the long history of the unit, but you can read about it at the link above, then maybe check out the terrifying list of Medal of Honor citations. In this case, the subject is the career of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, made up of Japanese-American soldiers and famously the most decorated unit in the US Army ever. That’s right, this week it’s two, count ’em two, movies, both of them about the same subject.
