Lust, Caution - Story of espionage and seduction in WW2 Shanghai. Ang Lee directed and has a excellent cast of Asian notables. The protagonist sacrificed everything, including her virginity, to get at the Japanese "man in charge". Stream or disc. Some steamy scenery.
John Rabe - This is based on the true account of a German plant manager for Siemens using his factory property as a safe zone for fleeing Chinese as Nanking fell to the Japanese. Even though Rabe was a Nazi party member he proved to be the German Wallenberg. Stream or disc.
