Sayonara is a 1957 Technicolor film starring Marlon Brando in Technirama. The picture tells the story of an American Air Force flier who was an ace fighter pilot during the Korean War (1950-1953).

Sayonara won four Academy Awards, including acting honors for co-star Red Buttons.

The film's screenplay was adapted by Paul Osborn from the 1954 novel of the same name by James Michener (1907-1997), and was produced by William Goetz and directed by Joshua Logan. Unlike most 1950s romantic dramas, Sayonara deals squarely with racism and prejudice. The supporting cast also features Patricia Owens, James Garner, Martha Scott, Ricardo Montalbán, and Miiko Taka.
