Director: Steven Spielberg
Cast: Dan Aykroyd, Ned Beatty, John Belushi, Treat Williams, Nancy Allen, Robert Stack, Christopher Lee, Slim Pickens, Elisha Cook Jr., Warren Oates, Lorraine Gary, Bobby DiCicco, Murray Hamilton, Tim Matheson, Toshiro Mifune
This film takes the events at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, and then goes on to a make-believe story of the Japanese attack on Los Angeles. General Joseph Stilwell (Robert Stack) is in command of the military protecting California's coast, and Sgt. Tree (Dan Aykroyd) is assigned the job of installing a 40mm anti-aircraft gun in homeowner Ward Douglas' (Ned Beatty) backyard. When California is attacked, Hollywood Boulevard lies in ruins, and craziness is experienced by the military and civilians as well. Special effects really help this film.

The Big Red One 1980  PG, 113 min.
Genre: Adventure
Director: Samuel Fuller
Cast: Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine, Bobby DiCicco, Kelly Ward, Siegfried Rauch, Stephane Audran, Maurice Marsac, Perry Lang
This top-notch adventure looks at war through the eyes of the foot soldiers who exist one day at a time in the dangerous war zone. Director Samuel Fuller, a WWII veteran, was disappointed when his film was cut to 113 minutes. In 2003, film historian Richard Schickel added footage to expand the film by 45 minutes to better reflect Fuller's desired product. This version is the one to get.
