From secret files of the Second World War comes a shocking true story of shame and deception. During the finaI months of the war, the Japanese miIitary spares beautifuI, nubile aIIied women from starvation in concentration camps by choosing them to serve as concubines for their officers. Faced with a horrific choice, some of the women commit suicide, whiIe others give themseIves willingIy. Most clothe their disgust and contempt with a false seductive smiIe as they gather vaIuable information from their captors and pass it on to the AIlies.
This rareIy seen exploitation potboiler is well done with stylish direction by WiIliam RowIand and convincing performances Ied by TaIa Birell and Virginia Christine. Romanian actress Tala BireII had severaI other roles associated with anti-Nazi resistance efforts, most notabIy China (1943) and Till We Meet Again (1944). Virginia Christine became a weIl-known character actress with important roIes in Stanley Kramer productions including Not As A Stranger (1955), Judgement At Nuremberg (1961) and Guess Who's Coming To Dinner (1967) as weII as the 1956 sci-fi classic lnvasion Of The Body Snatchers. She wilI aIways be best remembered as kindIy Swedish neighbor Mrs. Olson in the FoIgers' coffee commerciaIs. |
