Movie Description
Clint Eastwood's companion piece to FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS is again set during World War II. But in LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA, he looks at the war from the Japanese perspective, using Japanese dialogue. With American forces on their way, General Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe, THE LAST SAMURAI) arrives on the island to find his troops woefully under-trained and hopelessly outmatched. Japanese pop and television star Kazunari Ninomiya plays Saigo, a young soldier who asks, "Am I digging my own grave?" as he creates trenches. With no hope of reinforcements, these men have little hope of leaving the island alive.


Eastwood and director of photography Tom Stern paint their picture in a palette of taupes and grays. The landscape of the volcanic island is desolate, providing a hellish experience for the stationed soldiers but a stark beauty for the audience. With this bleak setting, LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA is a powerful ode to duty in dire circumstances. General Kuribayashi and Saigo provide the emotional center of the film, giving a glimpse into the minds of both seasoned officers and drafted novices. Eastwood doesn't deal in simple heroes and villains; these characters are sympathetic and real, whether their motives are pride, fear, or loyalty to their country. Though only the Academy-Award-nominated Watanabe is a familiar face to American audiences, each of the actors involved displays his experience working in Japanese film, television, and theater. The battle scenes are breathtaking and brutal, but it's the actors who are the core of the film. The picture has the standard tropes found in any modern war film, like verbal abuse by a superior and battle scenes filled with severed limbs. But Eastwood goes beyond the war-movie boilerplate with this impressive film that deserves every accolade it earns.

    Excellent movie. Eastwood did a terrific job making this film. It was slow at times,but really gives you idea of what the Japanese were going through. A must buy for your collection...

    I bought this movie as the companion piece to "Flags of Our Fathers". Seldom do we look at a situation, especially one in war time from the point of view of our adversaries. This movie not only does this, it does it well. We see the young Japanese soldiers deal with the trials of day to day life, they questian the logic of their officers, they dream of home and are patriotic. Their mind set is to die gloriously for the empire but it's not their first choice. They want to live and go home too. We see the officers, condemned to an unwinable battle design a defense to make the defeat a very costly victory for the Americans. They too love their families and believe that for every day they hold, one more day free of bombing is gained for the home islands. From a historical point of view, it is extremely well done and is an evening watching it is an evening well spent. We must remember that our enemies have families and love their countries just as we do. As a teaching point this movie teaches respect for an opponent and the horrors of war.
