very good john wayne he was great so was kirt douglas loved the naval fighting scenes. great special effects for its time a must see for all war buffs and wayne buffs
John Wayne leads the United States Navy into a monumental struggle against the Japanese. Kirk Douglas is the anti-hero who stirs up a fuss. The ships are models and the battles are conducted in a bathtub.
Captain Rockwell Torrey and Commander Paul Eddington are part of the Navy's effort to recuperate from, and retaliate for, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Torrey is romantically involved with nurse Maggie Haynes, and also tries to restore his relationship with his estranged son, Jeremiah, a young Naval officer.
Oh noes, a World War II movie... this really gets in the way of my trying to pretend it never happened... Stupid humanity. -_-'
GREAT PIC.. The un friendship between kirk and johns character helped the movie... AND the actress..I can see her face..BUt cannot remember her name..PATricia was fist name I believe... Johns love in the movie..
Aside from being almost too schmaltzy to be enjoyable, not a bad movie. One of the 1,147 war movies that uses the same battle footage with different angles to make it look new. The model boats in this movie look like toys.
This is the story of how the attack on Pearl Harbor and the aftermath after is seen throught hte eyes of Otto Perminger of "Stalag 17" fame. There allittle in it for every one, though.
Not one of my personal favorites of John Wayne's WWII movies but I did like Kirk Douglas character in this movie. A ton of stars and soon to be stars directed by the great Otto Preminger.
Preminger's WWII drama lays some great characters and tense moments but holds dated effects, even in 65.
