This is the original Pearl Harbor film. Classic!

Amazing how honest the reporting was then considering it was wartime. Other than a reference to Japanese treachery, it was pretty even-handed. Not like the outright lies and paranoia of the MSM today. What a bad ass that photographer was! Filming as the USS Arizona was being bombed by Japanese Zeros. Got to admire the efficiency and power of the Japanese airforce too. Almost as tragic is the USS Lafayette. No loss of life, but a beautiful ship gone forever. Excellent example of wartime reportage.
