CGiii Comment
Pure hearts, double-suicide and male rape - all the things Japanese soldiers offer for the love of their country.
This is an example of early gay Japanese exploitation - there is no explicit nudity...but, it is a cheap film hoping to attract the pink Yen.
The ending is an unmitigated disaster.
Oblivious to the viewer...the director lets it all fall apart.
No trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Shinohara, a young bodybuilder, joins a para-military sect in northern Japan. His instructor, Takizawa, takes a liking to the new recruit. After an early “special” training session the two develop a lasting and loving relationship. “Beautiful Mystery” was the first gay “adult” film to come out of Japan. Although tame by U.S. standards, it is ground–breaking nonetheless.
