THE VAMPIRE JESUS WEDNESDAY NIGHT MOVIE! TONIGHT'S FEATURE: TORA! TORA! TORA! (1970)

TORA! TORA! TORA! (Japanese: トラ・トラ・トラ) is a 1970 Japanese-American biographical war drama film that dramatizes the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The film was directed by Richard Fleischer, Toshio Masuda and Kinji Fukasaku. It stars an ensemble cast including Martin Balsam, Joseph Cotten, Sō Yamamura, E. G. Marshall, James Whitmore and Jason Robards.

In August 1939, the United States imposes a trade embargo on a belligerent Japan, severely limiting raw materials. Influential army figures and politicians push through an alliance with Germany and Italy in September 1940 and prepare for war. The newly appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto reluctantly plans a pre-emptive strike on the U.S. Pacific Fleet anchored at Pearl Harbor, believing that Japan's best hope of controlling the Pacific Ocean is annihilating the American fleet when war starts. Air Staff Officer Minoru Genda is chosen to mastermind the operation while his old Naval Academy classmate Mitsuo Fuchida is selected to lead the attack.
