Mind filling me in on the director? Is he one of those imperial japan apologist types?
He made a previous movie about Kamikaze pilots called The Eternal Zero that was accused glorifying militarism. He made another movie that was adapted from a novel written by someone who denies the Nanjing massacre.
Weird on that first point because I felt that Godzilla Minus One was a pretty clear rebuke against kamikaze pilots specifically and for cherishing human life generally.
Yeah, maybe he grew as a person (at least on the topic of kamikaze pilots). The movie is pretty anti-kamikaze.
