Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise), an American military officer hired by the
Emperor of Japan to train the country's first army in the art of modern
warfare. As the government attempts to eradicate the ancient Samurai warrior
class in preparation for more Westernized and trade-friendly policies,
Algren finds himself unexpectedly affected by his encounters with the
Samurai, which places him at the center of a struggle between two eras and
two worlds, with only his own sense of honor to guide him. -- © Warners

Igawa, who previously worked with the star in Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide

caught frolicking with the underwear-clad teenager played by Leelee
Sobieski.

Apple.com, and I think it does a great job of introducing the movie, even if
it's a little vague (as a teaser can be) about why exactly Tom Cruise is
fighting in Japan, etc. One thing the teaser *does* accomplish, I think, is
that it clearly shows the difference between the Samurai warriors and the
black-uniformed soldiers who look like they're from 100 years in the future
(in comparison). That juxtaposition most likely helps make the film seem as
sad as it is probably intended.
