The Teahouse of the August Moon

In 1946, earnest U.S. army captain Fisby (Glenn Ford) was dispatched to Okinawa, tasked with schooling the locals about American ideals and industry. However, the residents--as covertly spearheaded by Fisby’s canny interpreter Sakini (Marlon Brando)--have their own notions about how to rebuild, much to the confusion and consternation of Fisby and his fellow officers. Whimsical, poignant adaptation of the hit Broadway play co-stars Eddie Albert, Paul Ford, and Machiko Kyo. 123 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English Dolby Digital mono, French Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, French, Spanish.
