Watching a movie about Pearl Harbor that was one of those films they play on military bases and it had an intermission, how quaint!

I assume you’re talking about Tora Tora Tora, and yeah that’s a gem ngl It was actually an American/Japanese co-production in order to maintain the most historically accurate film they could given the technological constraints of the time

Shits from the 70s and portrays the Japanese side in a historically accurate and somewhat respectful manner

Some of the special effects for the battleships are a bit “bathtub toy” looking, but for the most part the film both looks and sounds great to this day. They flat out used some of the same planes from Pearl Harbor in the film they were that dedicated to getting as close as possible with 1971 tech I wish more historical films would have the approach of two countries working together (unless one is doing genocide denial or other shit ofc) to prevent it from falling into propaganda
