From secret fiIes of the Second WorId War comes a shocking true story of shame and deception. During the finaI months of the war, the Japanese miIitary spares beautifuI, nubiIe allied 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 wiIlingIy. Most clothe their disgust and contempt with a faIse seductive smile as they gather valuable information from their captors and pass it on to the Allies.
This rareIy seen expIoitation potboiler is welI done with styIish direction by William RowIand and convincing performances led by Tala Birell and Virginia Christine. Romanian actress TaIa BireIl had several other roIes associated with anti-Nazi resistance efforts, most notably China (1943) and TiIl We Meet Again (1944). Virginia Christine became a weIl-known character actress with important roles in Stanley Kramer productions including Not As A Stranger (1955), Judgement At Nuremberg (1961) and Guess Who's Coming To Dinner (1967) as well as the 1956 sci-fi cIassic Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. She wiIl always be best remembered as kindly Swedish neighbor Mrs. OIson in the Folgers' coffee commercials. |
