Were there moments while I was watching this film that I became distracted way too many for my taste but after the movie was finished I actually sat back and thought about it I'm not Asian and I know that Asian people like so many other people approach things differently based on their culture this was not a movie to excite or entice it was not to show the comfort women or the incredibly cruel Japanese army Or the downtrodden Malaysians or even the upcoming communists or for that matter the colonizing BRITs it was basically a love story a strange one but a love story and when I was pondering that I thought how that could apply to anyone anywhere that has faced adversity and who has come out of it one way or another so I was very touched by it and I'm very glad that it was made and I was able to view it.
