Hell in the Pacific 04/17 Blu-ray (Rental)

In 1944, a lone American pilot (Lee Marvin) washes ashore upon a deserted Pacific atoll-make that almost deserted, as he finds himself sharing it with a Japanese naval officer (Toshiro Mifune) consigned to the same fate. The enemy combatants find their instinctive, to-the-death gamesmanship giving way to the mutual realization that they'll need each other for survival and escape, in John Boorman's gripping, minimalist WWII drama. 103 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; featurettes; alternate ending.
