Naughty Boys & Soldiers

Naughty Boys & Soldiers is a 1996 Taiwanese comedy film directed by Kevin Chu and written by Kuo Cheng, set in a 1970s coastal town with a primary school and a military base. While most of the comedy is slapstick zaniness, the film also pokes fun at the many absurdities in Taiwan's White Terror period, such as schools encouraging children to idolize Chiang Kai-shek and regurgitate his anti-Communist rhetoric.
