70. "Tora Tora Tora" (1970)

Tonight we conclude our Pearl Harbor series with 1970's "Tora
Tora Tora," a perennial favorite of World War II-movie sticklers.
The producer of "The Longest Day" wanted to do for Pearl Harbor
what that movie did for D-Day. The result was Tora(3), a movie
that incorporates twin productions about the event, one from the
American perspective and one from the Japanese (with the actual
planners of the real attack hired as consultants for accuracy!).
A true World War II-movie cult classic... Asides include an
obscure Memphis rock band, and what Yamamoto and George Carlin
have in common.
