Love Japanese moviesz- either silent or “talkies”-

Lone wolf and cub series was pretty good

Zatoichi was a good one too about a blind samurai

My Marine dad was on the invasion fleet at sea headed to Japan when the bombs dropped. He then became part of the occupation force. All I know of his time there were two souvenirs he brought home: a Japanese Rising Sun flag and a silk parachute to make Mom’s wedding dress for October 1947. I sure wish he had kept a diary and that I had talked to him about his experiences in Japan. He didn’t bring home any love for Japan and we sure didn’t adopt any Japanese culture in our home.
