	Sayonara, Gangsters - Takahashi Genichiro
		"Sayonara, Gangsters, a thrillingly unhinged perpetual-motion machine full of absurd sex and violence, greased with the awesome confidence of a writer so committed to thumbing his nose at convention that he discovers caverns of wonder deep within said schnozz.
		Sayonara, Gangsters opens with the promise of a hard-boiled dystopia, as summarized in the first sentence, a newspaper headline that proclaims: "One After Another, Like Bowling Pins, U.S.Presidents Are Toppled by GANGSTERS".
		The fascination with literature and what it can do is evident throughout the book, and from poetry-quotes to Sayonara, Gangsters' attempt to buy a collection of Thomas Mann stories (complicated by the fact that: "The writer Thomas Mann had never existed in the first place") there are clever literary references, cleverly used, throughout the text.

	The Jujube Spotlight - Sayonara
		With patient and well-meaning didacticism, "Sayonara" aims to show 1950s America the human face of its former Japanese enemy and spread the word that even the most red-blooded and dutiful Yank should maintain an open mind.
		"Sayonara" clearly intends to exorcise the audience of its own narrow-mindedness by allowing it to accompany Gruver on his journey,* so the success of the film depends a lot upon Brando's performance.
		"Sayonara" is an ambitious film that tries to transport the viewer not only to a faraway place of romance and drama, but to another way of thinking about the world.

		In one beautifully executed scene, Sayonara, Gangsters and an old woman attempt to describe a creature that keeps defiantly changing form in reaction to their analysis.

		The narrator is a poetry teacher named “Sayonara, Gangsters” – he’s named after a gang that’s been knocking off U.S. Presidents one after another in the novel’s facetious near-future.

	Sayonara, Red Buttons - People - Entertainment - theage.com.au
		With his eager manner and rapid-fire wit, Buttons excelled in every phase of show business, from the Borscht Belt of the 1930s to celebrity roasts in the 1990s.
		His greatest achievement came with his "Sayonara" role as Sergeant Joe Kelly, the soldier in the occupation forces in Japan whose romance with a Japanese woman (Myoshi Umeki, who also won an Academy Award) ends in tragedy.
		Josh Logan, who directed the James Michener story that starred Marlon Brando, was at first hesitant to cast a well-known comedian in such a sombre role.

		"Sayonara" is surprisingly effective, both as a romance and as an "issues" movie; it really stands up better than most "issues" movies of its time.
		Although "Sayonara" is a bit on the long side and probably could have used some editing, it's a first-class drama.
		Sayonara stars Marlon Brando as Major Lloyd Gruber, a U.S. Air Force field officer stationed in Japan, who is destined to follow in his father's footsteps and become one of the "joint chiefs" if he plays his cards right.

	Sayonara Bar - Susan Barker
		Sayonara Bar was apparently originally meant to be titled 'Tsunami Bar', but given the events in South East Asia it was apparently thought wiser to change that.
		The straight-laced Mr Sato is dragged much against his will to the Sayonara Bar one evening, but it's definitely not his kind of place.
		Sayonara Bar isn't overly ambitious in the way so many expat novels are.

		Brando is apparently responsible for the courageous ending of the film and I bless him for it.
		I find he was extraordinarily brave way back in 1957 when Sayonara was made.
		Strong, wonderful cast are a delight; James Garner, Patricia Owens and the two Oscar winners, Buttons and Umeki support Brando and Miiko Taki.

	Sayonara, English translation by !Super Cat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Translator's notes: Sayonara is the Japanese word for goodbye that is used only at final partings.
		Further notes: I love Gackt, but I should note that the line sayonara taisetsuna hito (goodbye my love), is one of the most commonly used lines in Japanese songs, especially if you include the variations, sayonara daisukina hito (goodbye my love) and sayonara aishita hito (er, goodbye my love).
		However, the beauty of this song is in the simplicity of the lyrics that follow, and if you're a sucker for the romantic stuff, this song hits like a sucker punch.

		The cinematography, blue-screen work and computer-generated effects are also expertly done, capturing a number of arresting images, from the storm-ridden atmosphere of Jupiter to armadas of spacecraft maneuvering and docking.
		For example, Sayonara Jupiter begins with the accidental discovery of giant runes on Mars that match ancient Nazca carvings in Peru, and point toward a mysterious alien presence on Jupiter.
		Sayonara Jupiter also duplicates Kubrick’s upside down shots of passengers in space, and similarly utilizes imagery of slowly-maneuvering vehicles in the void of space.
