	Prisoners of the Sun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prisoners of the Sun (Le Temple du Soleil) is one of a series of classic comic-strip albums, written and illustrated by Belgian writer and illustrator Hergé, featuring young reporter Tintin as a hero.
		Prisoners of the Sun is the fourteenth in the series.
		Prisoners of the Sun was the first Tintin adventure to be published in the newly-created Tintin Magazine in 1946.

	‘Prisoners of the Sun’ (R)
		Stephen Wallace's "Prisoners of the Sun" takes place in the wake of World War II on the tiny island of Ambon on the northern coast of Australia.
		That the Japanese are guilty of the crimes is never in doubt, which is part of what makes "Prisoners of the Sun" a something less than riveting movie drama.
		The film provides the day-to-day details of the trials, the denials by the Japanese officers, and the frustrations of the Australians who, because of the difficulty in finding living witnesses, are stymied in the face of Japanese stonewalling.

	‘Prisoners of the Sun’ (R)
		"Prisoners of the Sun" refers to 1,100 Australian soldiers captured in Southeast Asia by the Japanese during World War II.
		"Sun" starts off as a reasonably diverting courtroom affair, with determined military prosecutor Bryan Brown up against a case that isn't quite as cut and dried as it seems.
		"Sun" eventually concludes the Americans were Machiavellian, the Imperial Army was diabolical, the Australians were duped and the only good "Jap" was a Spielberg-sympathetic Christian who nobly gave himself up.

	Herald Sun: NSW prisoners shuffled: Opposition (archived) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		PRISONERS, including accused murderer Mark Galante, are being shuffled between police cells because of a shortage of prison beds, the New South Wales opposition said today.
		"Prisoners are being driven from Gosford and beyond to Sydney police cells instead of being kept behind razor wire and prison walls," Opposition justice spokesman Andrew Humpherson said in a statement.
		On one evening this week, there were 468 too few prison beds in the NSW system, Mr Humpherson said.

		Although it doesn't matter what the conviction was for, prisoners must also agree to commit to the program for four months, to be drug- and alcohol-free, to go to work, to attend self-help classes, to come home before 10 p.m.

		Based on accounts of Japanese atrocities during their wartime military occupation of Southeast Asia, PRISONERS OF THE SUN is a well-intentioned, intermittently powerful journey backward through a tragic period in history.
		The court case that forms the basis of PRISONERS OF THE SUN concerns the fate of four missing airmen, presumed dead.
		With fascinating, factual material to draw from, PRISONERS OF THE SUN should have been more riveting than it is. As a courtroom drama, the film is engrossing for the most part, but constantly undercuts its own momentum.

		The relative absence of active and/or powerful female figures in The Prisoners of the Sun (1946) has not prevented this album from achieving international popularity, any more than the relative exclusion of significant male figures from the pages of Wonder Woman comics in the 1940's diminished the popularity of those comics.

		Prisoners of the Sun: a supressed text in the Tintiniverse?
		I subscribe firmly to the opinion, unlike those who protest that Tintin is not much of a reporter because he is rarely seen to report, that the books are in fact the result of his on-going journalism.
		We know that these “reports” are available in the Tintiniverse (that version of reality in which the adventures occur), because the books crop up in the stories themselves.

		It is about military trials that were held at the end of WWII on the island of Ambon, in Indonesia, to deal with mass atrocities that the Japanese committed against their prisoners.
		There are some flash backs and a few other scenes with strong imagery and actions in it, but Prisoners of the Sun (originally entitled "Blood Oath" in Australia) is primarily a courtroom drama.
		It not only shows a glimpse of just how degenerate the Imperial Japanese army was towards its prisoners, but it also shows how governments after the war just wanted to forget and move on quickly in their desire for strategic world building.

	Blood Oath (Prisoners of the Sun) (1990)
		His major problems are that he lacks a credible witness to the crimes and the paper trail that might have convicted the perpetrators is missing.
		Matsugae (Sokyu Fujita) is having his own problems since the prisoners don't trust him and mounting a credible defense against such distrust is difficult.
		I thought some of the acting was a touch over-the-top, and the violence of the Aussies against the Japanese prisoners a bit easy (I have no doubt they were much more brutal) but that's the nature of the making of a movie with an M rating.

		Blood Oath, also known as Prisoners of the Sun, was written by Denis Whitburn and Brian A. Williams based on the book Blood Oath (also written by Williams).
		Jimmy is called as a witness, and he begins to recount his stories of the beatings and torture inflicted on the prisoners.
		Along the way we are shown some quite horrific flashbacks of what presumably went on in these POW camps on Ambon, and the atrocities inflicted upon those Australian servicemen who were captured by the Japanese.

		Hergé's Prisoners of the Sun is full of references to ominous signs, from the pennant
		Halmoni and the Picnic offers a contrast between a new generation in a "new country" and an old generation from an "old country." Such a contrast requires adaptation and accommodation between generations and "countries" or worlds.
		Compare the adaptations and accommodations proposed in Halmoni to those indicated in Hergé's Prisoners of the Sun, where an old world (Europe) and another old world (the land of the Incas) framed as the "New World" also require adaptations and accommodations for those who would reconcile their differences.
