If you loved Japan's Longest Day, try Kamikaze (Okinawa Zero)
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Kihachi Okamoto, and they sit in History / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Japan's Longest Day, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Kamikaze (Okinawa Zero) is
You command a defense line in Okinawa as US forces approach. But Tokyo sends bizarre directives and withholds key support. The island becomes a cage. Okamoto's widescreen compositions reveal the awful distances between strategy and consequence. A brutal accounting.
