Japan's Longest Day |
|---|
| The Fate of a Nation Hung in the Balance! |
|
Toshiro Mifune leads an all-star cast in an powerful film about the last 24 hours of the Japanese Empire. Based on the renowed history “Nihon no Ichiban Nagai Hi” (available in English on Amazon.com), this film is broadcast every year in Japan on the anniversary of the surrender.
On August 15th, 1945, the Japanese people faced utter destruction. Millions of soldiers and civilians were dead, the rest were starving, and their cities had been reduced to piles rubble -- two of them vaporized by atomic bombs. The government was deadlocked; some ministers called for surrender, and others argued that honor demanded a final battle on home soil. To break the impasse, the cabinet took the unprecedented step of asking the Emperor to decide the fate of the nation.
In a single 24 hour period, the fate of 100 million people would be decided.
This is the true story of August 15th, 1945... Japan's Longest Day.

Revenge of a Kabuki Actor |
|---|
| Only a man can portray the perfect woman - and only a perfect woman can wreak the perfect revenge! |
|
Master Director Kon Ichikawa's 1963 classic is
considered by many to be one of the finest films ever made in Japan.
Kasuo Hasegawa stars as Yukinojo, a talented kabuki actor who specializes
in playing female roles (women were not allowed on the stage during the period of
the film). But his success on the stage is but a means to an end; his true goal is
to visit vengeance upon the three ruthless and powerful men who destroyed his family's
business and drove his parents to commit suicide.
Yukinojo's vengeance will be carefully scripted, and skillfully acted. But the
price of admission will be high indeed.
