Emperor

IMDB
First time viewed: Yes
Current Release: Yes

An alright drama and an interesting historical period to explore, occupied Japan right after WW2. The film is basically a procedural where Matthew Fox is tasked by Tommy Lee Jones to uncover who ordered the attach on Pearl Harbour and if the Emperor needs to be tried for war crimes. It's made difficult by the fact that the Emperor is basically a god to the Japanese and due to ceremony and tradition, barley anyone ever sees him and removing him from the head of government could lead the country into revolt.

I enjoyed the film, if not emotionally just for the story. It's technically well put together too, the period recreation and cinematography is great. Worth a look if you're interested in the period.
