gins the film as a baseball-lov
ing American, but whon faced
with his country’s betrayal, he
becomes angry and bitter and is
eventually expatriated to Japan.
Oregonians will recognize
many of tho background
scones. Downtown Portland
serves as Little Tokyo, Portland
Meadows racetrack is the in
ternment staging area, and the
town of Florin is tho movie's
first and final set.
To his credit, Parker does a
remarkable job of setting tho
film. Period pieces are difficult
to do, but Como Soo tho Para
dise convinces tho viewer he or
she is watching 1930s America.
Thu costumes are marvelous,
tho cinematography excellent.
Tho internment camps are
one of die darkest blotches on
American history. The story of
Japanoso-Amorican internees
needs to be told; it’s just too
bad that such a horrible time is
represented by a convoluted
and confusing movie such as
Como Sco Tho Paradise.
