December 7th, 1941, a day that will live in infamy. Featured on this DVD are five rare WWII films created in the aftermath of the Japanese sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. Foremost among them is "December 7th", a propaganda film directed by Hollywood legend John Ford that won a special Academy Award when it was first released. This controversial movie uses original footage of the attack and recreations, to present a chilling portrait of the attack and the complacency that allowed it to occur.
Also featured are several newsreels about Pearl Harbor and the bombing of the Philippines. Finally, the DVD includes "The Japanese Army and Navy", a training film made to educate American officers and men about their new enemy: Japan.
