It may not feature any Goblin Kings but this film is certainly just as memorable.
The Big Picture While Jim Henson’s Labyrinth probably features what has come to be known as David Bowie’s most iconic role , fans of the film might be disappointed to know that it was far from the legend’s greatest appearance on the big screen with 1983’s Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence featuring his best performance in a starring role.
Why Is David Bowie’s 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence' Performance His Best? What makes Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence the best David Bowie performance isn’t his musical ability but his magnetic on-screen presence. Bowie doesn’t sing a word throughout the film and even remarks that he wishes he could sing at one point but rather, expertly controls his demeanor to convey an essay’s worth of words with a series of cold and calculated stares.
‘Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence’ Calls for Tolerance of All Kinds The most pivotal theme of Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence is without a doubt the importance of tolerance, particularly in the face of war. With the Japanese and the British doing battle with one another , it must be appreciated just how alien one another’s cultures must have seemed to them, devoid of the context or information that the globalization of something like the Internet could provide.
