The Japanese are besieging Nanking and it is up to an American rogue to try and save an unlikely band of Chinese Catholic school girls and high-priced whores from the horror of their invaders. This film has a large budget in all respects but unfortunately it suffers from being a bit Hollywood. Don't get me wrong, it's a powerful glimpse of the nightmare that the Chinese went through under the boot of the Japs but its a bit insulting having to make the "hero" of the story an American. Check out the trailer below and see what you think.
A good film for a theatre of war often overlooked by the West,
Brian
The real heroes of the movie!
