Anecdotes
Audrey Hepburn was offered the role of a Japanese bride opposite Marlon Brando but turned it down. She explained that she "couldn't possibly play an Oriental. No one would believe me; they'd laugh. It's a lovely script, however I know what I can and can't do. And if you did persuade me, you would regret it, because I would be terrible."

Gaffes
Major Gruver, said to be a West Point graduate is shown wearing his class ring on his right hand. Academy graduates always wore their class rings on their left hand, a mark of distinction.

Citations
Major Gruver: [at a traditional tea ceremony: watching, as a Japanese man spends a lot of time carefully making a cup of tea] He makes such a production of everything.
Hana-ogi: The pleasure does not lie in the end itself... it's the pleasurable steps *to* that end.

Beautiful shots of Japan

Beautiful shots of Japan And even though it's shot in 1957, it was filmed in Technirama and Technicolor.. truly amazing how it still looks vibrant today on a modern tv. I'm sure these soldiers faced such obstacles, falling in love with women of a nation we were at war with but today, all these years later it seems absurd they'd be harassed for it and only natural for young men 1,000s of miles from home for years on end. It's based on a James Michener book and even though it's 60+ yrs old, it's obvious they sure knew how to make movies all those yrs ago... I'd rather watch these old movies than 80% of the ridiculous content that's been out out in the past 30 years. Yes, there's a lot more movies put out these days but I'd venture an estimate that the quality movies produced today vs 60 yrs ago... they had us beat without a doubt. Great flick.. enjoy!!
