520    In a Japanese prison camp on Java in 1942, two British 
       officers, John Lawrence and Jack Celliers, encounter camp 
       commander Yonoi and his sergeant Hara. Things had been 
       going pretty well, until charismatic, rebellious Celliers 
       arrived. Yonoi is a devotee of the samurai ideal; neither 
       he nor Hara can understand the stoic way in which the 
       British prisoners accept their situation of defeat. 
       Lawrence speaks Japanese, and ceaselessly tries to mediate
       between the prisoners and their overseers, translating 
       both the words and the values of the two races. Celliers' 
       attitude, however, is more comprehensible to Yonoi. He and
       Celliers arrive at a sort of détente, based on an 
       admiration for the other, but this eventually turns into a
       contest of wills as the camp's carefully nurtured 
       equilibrium is destroyed. 
538    DVD; Region 1, NTSC; Dolby digital surround 2.0 stereo; 
       widescreen presentation, preserving the 1.78:1 aspect 
       ratio of the original theatrical exhibition, enhanced for 
       16:9 televisions.
