Sinopsis: Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial el soldado británico Jack Celliers (David Bowie) llega a un campo de prisioneros japonés. El comandante del campo cree firmemente en valores como la disciplina, el honor y la gloria. En su opinión los soldados aliados son cobardes al entregarse en vez de suicidarse. Uno de los prisioneros trata de explicar a sus compañeros la forma de pensar de los japoneses, pero éstos le consideran un traidor. (FILMAFFINITY)
Synopsis: In this captivating, skewed World War II drama from Nagisa Oshima, David Bowie regally embodies Celliers, a British officer interned by the Japanese as a POW. Rock star Ryuichi Sakamoto (who also composed this film’s hypnotic score) plays the camp commander, obsessed with the mysterious blond major, while Tom Conti is the British lieutenant colonel Lawrence, who tries to bridge the emotional and language divides between captor and prisoner. Also featuring actor-director Takeshi Kitano in his first dramatic role, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence is a multilayered, brutal, at times erotic tale of culture clash, and one of Oshima’s greatest successes.
Reviews: Austin Film Society | AllMovie | Rotten Tomatoes | IMDb (external reviews)
While many claim LAWRENCE is one of Oshima's most muted and traditional films, it offers a subtler and more seasoned approach to these themes he toyed with for decades. -- Nick Nobel
