Storyline
Major Lloyd Gruver, a Korean War flying ace reassigned to Japan, staunchly supports the military's opposition to marriages between American troops and Japanese women. But that's before Gruver experiences a love that challenges his own deeply set prejudices... and plunges him into conflict with the U.S. Air Force and Japan's own cultural taboos.—alfiehitchie

Short Review
A post-war exercise in re-humanizing the Japanese that can be conversely criticized for its questionable depiction of timid doll-like housewives.
