An Australian movie, The Railway Man tells the true story of a traumatised train-obsessed former British soldier's modern-day encounter with a Japanese Kempeitai interpreter who formed part of the team that tortured him after his capture in Japan-occupied Singapore during World War II, and while the realtime story minus flashbacks is temporally slight, the build up to it is gruelling and engrossing and when redemption of a sort comes, is very emotional.
★★★☆☆
