 "ONLY THE BRAVE" is the first motion picture about the 100th/442nd as seen
through the eyes of the men who lived it.  Written and directed by
award-winning playwright Lane Nishikawa, the story was based on the actual
experiences of his three Nisei uncles who served in the 100th/442nd - as
well as other veterans who shared their memories with him over the years.

The film captures the personal tragedies and sacrifices of the soldiers -
played by Jason Scott Lee, Mark Dacascos, Yuji Okumoto, Greg Watanabe and
Ken Narasaki - during the final days of their rescue of the Texas "Lost
Battalion" (represented by Jeff Fahey and Guy Ecker). 

Nishikawa also stars as the platoon leader, who is haunted by the death of
his father (Pat Noriyuki Morita) and the hardships on the wives and
girlfriends left behind (Tamlyn Tomita and Emily Liu). 

 After the film there will be a Q&A with the director and cast! So come
check it out, again it's this Thursday 7:30pm @ UNLH 1000
