I’m not a titanic war-movie buff any more (THE SEARCH FOR PRIVATE RYAN cured me) but this is a worthwhile film if you have an interest in WWII. TORA! TORA! TORA! is a documentary-type film. Assume of it as a Stephen Ambrose book recorded live. The film is neither a glorified fifties war-film (IN HARMS Device, BATTLE OF THE CORAL SEA), nor is it a Viet Nam noir-war film (PLATOON, THE DEER HUNTER) . (Neither of which are particularly authentic.)
TORA! TORA! TORA! recreates war from the perspective of news correspondent-participant-observer. The myth is presented from both the Japanese and American viewpoints and it is presented like a History Channel film.
It took the film crew several months to film TORA! TORA! TORA! I was living in Navy housing on Pearl Harbor at the time and a number of our friends and acquaintences found part-time jobs acting in the film. “Valid” military pilots in-between rounds in Viet Nam flew some of the planes (this was 1969) .

Much of the architecture in Honolulu was vintage WWII era or earlier and the rest of the island was relatively unchanged from the 1940s. The terrain looked very grand as it had when my father-in-law passed through on his scheme to Guadalcanel and later Iwo Jima.
I cannot protest you the names of the aircraft (my husband could) but I was told that they frail precise aircraft from the period including the P40s the U.S. flew and the captured Zeros the Japanese flew. We drove up to Schoffield Barracks to stare at the ancient airplanes lined up row on row. During the filming, one of these traditional planes crashed in a sugar cane field and burned up before the pilot could be rescued. The daily flights overhead, the steady crashes, the reenactment of the destruction in the harbor, the daily flights in and out of Hickam as men and material destined for Viet Nam left and wounded and dull arrived–was all very outlandish.
Well, this is an pleasurable film. The unusual PEARL HARBOR relies on all sorts of technology, but if you want to leer how Hawaii really looked in 1941 and how the planes really looked, and how the crews really looked, and salvage some sense of how hideous it was to be in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 this is the film to inspect.
I first saw Tora! Tora! Tora! (Tiger! Tiger! Tiger! in Japanese) in 1974, when I was 20 years dilapidated on Atlanta’s Channel Two. As exclusive as this may sound, I have always liked movies about World War II. My stepfather had served in the Navy during the war and in fact he had joined the service shortly after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, which is the subject of this 2 hour and 25 minute-long Japanese-American 1970 production.

This movie was directed by several directors including Toshio Masuda and Kinji Fukasuka, but the American version (yes, there is a Japanese version) gives the credit to customary director Richard Fleischer. Based on Gordon W. Prange’s “Tora! Tora! Tora!” and Ladislas Farago’s “The Broken Seal”, the film accurately depicts the events on both sides of the Pacific leading up to the attractive attack on the U.S. Pacific Quickly on Sunday, December 7, 1941.

Even though it covers an 18-month period between Admiral Yamamoto’s (Soh Yamamura) initial planning for Operation Hawaii and the attack itself, Tora! Tora! Tora! (the title refers to the code traditional to order the Japanese that the Americans had been caught by surprise) never drags or seems dreary. I learned, for instance, that Japanese Ambassador Nomura was a skilled and apt diplomat who did not know what his country’s military leaders were planning, and that he hoped to avoid war. I was also insecure by how General Walter C. Short (Jason Robards) was so preoccupied by the threat of sabotage from Hawaii’s 125,000 Japanese inhabitants that he foolishly parked all the bombers and fighters in Hickam and Wheeler Fields in well-organized rows, supposedly to fabricate them easier to guard but actually making them sitting ducks.
What amazed me about watching this movie is how clueless Pearl Harbor’s defenders were on that Sunday morning. Though many people judge the first shot of the Pacific War was fired by the Japanese, it was actually fired by the USS Ward on a Japanese midget submarine trying to sneak into the harbor. This happened roughly an hour before the first bomb fell on Battleship Row. I would have conception that the relate of an unknown submarine being fired upon in a restricted dwelling would have alerted the whole speedy. Immoral! American officers in Oahu were so determined that the Japanese would be spotted long before they could inaugurate a strike that Captain James Earle (Richard Anderson) asks for confirmation before he tells his superiors. This does not accomplish Adm. Husband E. Kimmel (Martin Balsam) very gay and I plan he was very indignant that the Ward’s initial record did not approach him in time.
The movie makes sure to the audience that history often hinges on puny but indispensable details. Who would have conception that the fate of two big nations would be decided by a diplomat’s dumb typing bustle, or that a describe of a big radar blip off to the north of Oahu would be received with the phrase, “Well, don’t pain about it.”? It sounds like unpleasant fiction but everything in this movie is based on historical fact.
Tora! Tora! Tora! has improbable battle scenes. Most of the aerial scenes were shot using either vintage planes or realistic replicas (because there are no flying Zero fighters, T-28 Texans were modified to inspect like the famed Japanese planes) . The Navy actually allowed 20th Century-Fox to film in and around Pearl Harbor and rented a World War II era carrier that was to be decommissioned to benefit as a stand in for the Japanese carrier. Clever editing, well-behaved exiguous effects and carefully built live action sets give the illusion that one is actually reliving the Day of Infamy.
