Sophie and the Rising Sun

I don't understand the low reviews. A classical tale of love in times of war set in the 1930-40s in the South set against a background of courageous people as well bigoted, prejudiced individuals. The lead couple features a handsome, proper and mellow Takashi Yamaguchi who represents a Japanese American flawlessly. He does come across as way more American though. Beautiful dialogues. Great chemistry, captivating romance scenes. Strong performances from the entire cast, all unique in their very own way. Now if it didn't end on a good note, I'd have been very sad. Overall a very solid beautiful classic love-war movie with a unique historical and character setting and an interracial international point of view.
