About Menace of the Rising Sun
Horror over the Pacific in the form of Japanese perfidy is the theme of this special two reel. The amazing story of the Jap double-cross from the naval conference in 1921-22 to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the present war in the Pacific.
Directed by Allan F. Kitchel Jr., Menace of the Rising Sun leans on a strong ensemble — Graham McNamee — 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 documentary titles of 1942.
