Manage episode 330762907 series 3022966
EPISODE #344-- We return to Japan or, more specifically, today we return to the sub-genre of white guys going to Japan in John Frankenheimer's THE CHALLENGE from 1982, staring Scott Glenn and Toshiro Mifune.
We also talk about THE EMPEROR'S NAKED ARMY MARCHES ON (1987), a very different film about post-war Japan.
