For my assigned blog I choose the movie Pearl Harbor. I enjoy watching this movie, and is one of my favorite movies. The movie Pearl Harbor really showed how everyone suffered when the Japanese attacked us in the Harbor in Hawaii. I feel like this movie is important because it showed how we got involved in WW2.
Rafe and Danny were two good friends growing up, and they enjoyed flying planes. All they wanted was to be apart of the military since they were young. Rafe and Everlyn fall in love but Rafe was sented over seas to England to fight in the war. Danny and Everlyn were transferred to Pearl Harbor. Everlyn and Danny start dating and both of them think that Rafe died over seas. Rafe came back unexpectedly and felt betrayed by both of them. Everlyn was a nurse for the army and Danny was a plane fighter. On December 7th, 1941, Japan suprised attack on us with Zero fighters and torpedos. The attack was earlier in the morning and many of men were still asleep when this happened. Thousands of men were trapped in the bottoms of the ships and couldn't get out. Rafe and Danny were the only men who were able to fly planes and attack back on the Japanese at Pearl Harbor. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, President FDR declares war on Japan. Both Danny, Rafe, and other skilled pilots were assigned to the dangerous mission. The men bombed the capital of Japan which is Tokoyo. After the men bomb Tokoyo, the are running out of gas and have to land in the middle of a field in Japan. Danny saves Rafe's life by shooting at the Japanese soliders. Danny dies from being wounded badly, and acts like a shield for Rafe and saves his life.
I personally think that this movie really shows what happened to us down in the Harbors of Hawaii when the Japanese attacked us.
