Please by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. ( November 2015) The film deals with the relationships among four men in a Japanese prisoner of war camp during the — Major Jack Celliers (Bowie), a rebellious British officer with a guilty secret from his youth; Captain Yonoi (Sakamoto), the young camp commandant; Lieutenant Colonel John Lawrence (Conti), another British officer who has lived in and speaks Japanese fluently; and Sergeant Hara (Kitano), who is brutal, yet humane in some ways and with whom Lawrence develops an unlikely friendship.Just as Celliers is troubled by guilt, Yonoi is haunted with shame. Having been posted to previously, he was unable to be in Tokyo with his Army comrades, the 'Shining Young Officers' of Japan's, an attempted 1936 military coup. When it failed, the young army officers were executed. Yonoi regrets not being able to share their patriotic sacrifice.
Jack Celliers had betrayed his younger brother while the two of them were attending boarding school in. Although Celliers confesses this only to Lawrence, Captain Yonoi senses in Celliers a kindred spirit. He wants to replace British Group Captain Hicksley (the ranking Allied officer and prisoner representative) with Celliers as the spokesman for the prisoners.As Celliers is interned in the camp, Yonoi seems to develop a fixation with him, often asking Hara about him, silently visiting him in the night while Celliers is asleep. Celliers, who is known by the nickname of 'Strafer' Jack (a 'strafer' is a 'soldier's soldier'), instigates a number of small rebellious actions, one of which is supplying the men with food after their rations are withhheld two days for their actions during the of a Korean guard, whom Yonoi deemed 'spiritually lazy'.
Yonoi's (personal servant) surmises the mental hold Celliers has on Yonoi and tries to kill him but fails. Celliers manages to escape from his cell and rescues Lawrence, only to be unexpectedly confronted by Yonoi. Yonoi challenges Celliers to single combat, saying, 'If you defeat me, you will be free,' but Celliers refuses, thrusting his prior assailant's into the sand. Yonoi's batman then commits seppuku in atonement after urging Yonoi to kill Celliers before Celliers destroys him.When a radio is discovered in the possession of the POWs after Celliers circumvented the rations suspension Yonoi forces Celliers and Lawrence to accept the blame and puts them into nearby holding cells pending execution. The two men reminisce about their pasts. However, on Christmas Eve, a drunken Sergeant Hara orders Celliers and Lawrence to be brought to him.
Hara then tells them he is 'Father Christmas' and orders their release as another prisoner confessed responsibility for the radio. As the two men leave, Hara calls out in English, 'Merry Christmas, Lawrence!' Although Yonoi is angry that Sergeant Hara released Celliers and Lawrence, he is only mildly reprimanded for exceeding his authority. He is then assigned to oversee (with some of the prisoners) the construction of an airstrip.Hicksley worries that Yonoi wants to replace him as spokesman for the POW's and confronts him, demanding an explanation. Furious at Hicksley's impudence (while at the same time denying Yonoi the information he seeks), the whole camp is paraded on Yonoi's order.
All the prisoners are ordered to form up outside the barracks, including the sick and disabled. When Hicksley refuses to assemble the latter group, an enraged Yonoi prepares to kill him. At this point Celliers breaks and walks up to Yonoi, between him and Hicksley, and kisses him on each cheek. This is an unbearable offence to Yonoi's, and he reaches for his, only to collapse under the conflicting feelings of wanting vindication for the offence suffered in front of his men; and his feelings for Celliers. Celliers is then attacked and beaten by the Japanese soldiers.Captain Yonoi is immediately replaced as commandant and his successor declares, 'I am not as sentimental as Captain Yonoi!'
He has Celliers buried in the sand up to his neck and left to die. Before leaving, Captain Yonoi goes to Celliers at night when no one is around and cuts a lock from his hair, then bows and leaves. Celliers dies shortly afterwards.In 1946, four years later, Lawrence visits Sergeant Hara who is now a prisoner himself of the Allies.
Hara has learned to speak English while in captivity and reveals he is to be executed the following day for war crimes. He states he is not afraid to die, but doesn't understand how his actions were any different from those of any other soldier. Lawrence implicitly agrees, saying that Hara is a 'victim of men who think they are right'. After referencing his own time as a POW, Lawrence says, 'We are all wrong.' He then tells Hara that Yonoi gave him a lock of Celliers' hair and asked him to take it to his village in Japan and place it in a shrine. Hara then reminisces about Celliers and Yonoi. It is revealed that Yonoi too was executed after the war.
Hara asks Lawrence if he remembers the Christmas Eve he had him released, and both are amused. The two then bid one another goodbye; Lawrence, his voice breaking, says, 'There are times when victory is very hard to take.' As he is leaving, Hara calls out: 'Lawrence!!! Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas, Mr. Cast.

as New commandant of the campProduction was cast as Jack Celliers after director saw him in a production of on. He felt that Bowie had 'an inner spirit that is indestructible'. While shooting the movie, Bowie was amazed that Oshima had a two- to three-acre camp built on the remote Polynesian island of, but most of the camp was never shot on film.
He said Oshima 'only shot little bits at the corners. I kind of thought it was a waste, but when I saw the movie, it was just so potent – you could feel the camp there, quite definitely.' Bowie noted how Oshima would give an incredible amount of direction to his Japanese actors ('down to the minutest detail'), but when directing him or fellow Westerner Tom Conti, he would say 'Please do whatever it is you people do.'
Bowie thought his performance in the movie was 'the most credible performance' he had done in a film up to that point in his career.The boarding school sequence was shot on location at, a private high school in Auckland, New Zealand. In a shot of two students playing pool, another boy in the room can be seen wearing a King's blazer. Other scenes were filmed in various locations around Auckland including.Contrary to usual cinematic practice, Oshima shot the film without and shipped the film off the island with no safety prints. 'It was all going out of the camera and down to the post office and being wrapped up in brown paper and sent off to Japan', Bowie stated. Oshima's editor in Japan cut the movie into a rough print within four days of Oshima returning to Japan.
Soundtrack The for Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence was composed. Sakamoto won the 1983 for the film's soundtrack.
Contributed lyrics and vocals on ', a vocal version of the main theme, '.Reception website gives Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence a 79% approval rating and score of 6.2 out of 10 based on 19 reviews.critic wrote a favourable review, saying that David Bowieplays a born leader in Nagisa Oshima's Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, and he plays him like a born film star.
Bowie's screen presence here is mercurial and arresting, and he seems to arrive at this effortlessly, though he manages to do something slyly different in every scene. The demands of his role may sometimes be improbable and elaborate, but Mr. Bowie fills them in a remarkably plain and direct way. Little else in the film is so unaffected or clear.On the film's Japanese actors, Maslin wrote thatthe two main Japanese characters who have brought him to this understanding are Sergeant Hara (Takeshi), a brutal figure who taunts Lawrence while also admiring him, and Captain Yonoi (Ryuichi Sakamoto), the handsome young camp commander, who has a fierce belief in the samurai code. Both of these actors perform at an obvious disadvantage, since their English is awkward and the motives of their characters are imperfectly revealed. However, they are able to convey the complex affinity that exists between captors and prisoners, a point that is made most touchingly in a brief postwar coda. References.

In the context of the movie Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence you can interpret the song as being about a gay romance but I don’t think that this is the only viable.
