About Tora! Tora! Tora!
In the summer of 1941, the United States and Japan seem on the brink of war after constant embargos and failed diplomacy come to no end. "Tora! Tora! Tora!", named after the code words used by the lead Japanese pilot to indicate they had surprised the Americans, covers the days leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor, which plunged America into the Second World War.
Directed by Toshio Masuda, Kinji Fukasaku, Richard Fleischer, Tora! Tora! Tora! leans on a strong ensemble — Martin Balsam, So Yamamura, Jason Robards — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about war titles of 1970.
