What Tora! Tora! Tora! Is About
The months leading to Pearl Harbor are told from both sides at once: the planning meetings in the Japanese navy and the way warnings went missing inside American intelligence. That is the film's real decision. Instead of a story of betrayal, it shows an institution unable to process its own information; the aircraft reported on a radar screen and waved away is its most striking passage. There are no heroes, only people doing their jobs on both sides. Richard Fleischer directed the American sections, Toshio Masuda and Kinji Fukasaku the Japanese. It won the Academy Award for effects, and the attack was staged with real aircraft. Before watching: the first two hours are almost entirely meetings and paperwork. Come expecting action and it will feel long.
