Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence
Film cycle : Nagisa Oshima
Culture shocks and power struggles intensified in a POW camp, with British and Australian prisoners being held under the strict control of Japanese jailers. Passions runs high and, with Oshima’s subversive camera trained on them, Sakamoto and Bowie insinuate glamour and anti-conformism in the unruly mob.
