    Trivia: One of the technical advisers on the film was Minoru Genda. He's not credited because the studio was afraid of veteran protests if it came out that the planner of the attack was working on the film. When the planes took off at dawn from a stand-in carrier off the coast of California, he's reported to have jumped up and down with excitement, shouting, "That's just what it looked like!"

      Too bad there wasnt a vet there to knock him on his ass as wz jumping w excitement.
      Pretty fn inappropriate to even b that way, film set or not.
      He should have been weeping with remorse, not jumping gleefully.

    Thanks for uploading the full scene where the B-17s come in. The fact that they even omitted the B-17s coming in when I saw the 2001 "Pearl Harbor" movie was just one of so many historical inaccuracies when compared with "Tora! Tora! Tora!".

    As others have pointed out, the B-17 landing on one wheel was real due to a gear failure. That footage was filmed by a cameraman who was rushed out to the runway and placed in a hole near it, with an assistant holding onto his belt, ready to yank him down into the hole if the B-17 headed their way. The scene of the plane approaching and the wheel kissing the runway, though, was done later by a very brave and skilled pilot to provide a lead-in shot to the actual crash landing. You can see the difference in film quality between the two.
    Another "lucky" accident occurred when the USS Nevada (a set on a barge) was supposed to pass in front of the camera as explosions went off. The explosions actually started by accident before the set was in front of the camera, while stuntmen were in the wrong positions to be safe. So by the time it appeared on screen, those stuntmen really were running and jumping to save their lives. The director and film crew were worried they'd wasted a very expensive setup, but the studio execs congratulated them on a very exciting sequence once they saw the footage.
    I still have a copy of American Cinematographer with a bunch of articles about the filming.

    A film so damn accurate that even though the B-17s are the focus of this scene in the directors cut they have a radio operator in the ATC tower trying to help panicked dauntless pilots who where patrolling the ocean out to the carriers and had to stop at hiccum to refuel. And that was pretty much the only thing added to the attack for the directors cut because other than Dorie Miller acting as a medic that was the only thing missing from that film

    A quick note for those who don't know ... during the filming of the B-17s one of them had a REAL in flight emergency, the bird with the stuck landing gear. The production company filmed the landing and incorporated it into this movie and into Midway. No one in his right mind would have suggested deliberately crash-landing a Fort, but this was one of those unplanned things you take advantage of.

      Robert, twentieth century fox actually did suggest it. They actually wanted a landing with all the gear up, but the owners, an outfit called Aviation Specialties in Mesa, Arizona wouldn’t do it. Too much damage to a working airplane. 12 propellers, four engines, all increasingly rare, and pretty extensive structural damage. You’re right, though, it was a real in flight emergency. Hmm, how did you know that? Do we know one another?

      @@markboyles8019 I don't think we know each other Mark. I don't recall exactly where I heard about the in-flight emergency, but I strongly suspect it was while I was stationed on Oahu 1976 - 80. I spent a full year on Pearl, working in the basement of the Shipyard HQ building, actually in what used to be the offices where Commander Rochefort and his 'Spooks' did their code breaking and traffic analysis that paid off quite well in June of '42.
      While I was there many of the aircraft hangers were still standing on Ford Island, many unchanged from 'that day' right down to bullet holes still in walls and windows and unrepaired pock marks in the apron concrete. This was when I found out about the USS Utah memorial on the far side of Ford from the Arizona.
      Wife and I were both active duty Navy and got to see a lot of history that most tourists don't get to. One day before we get too old we would like to get back to Oahu for one more visit.

    The officer, a lieutenant, who received the telephone call from the person manning the radar about large formations of aircraft northeast of Hawaii simply said they were probably B17 and didnot bother to report the reported sighting to his superior so that appropriate validation would have been made and the results communicated to the Fleet Admiral and the Commander in Chief of the Army in Hawaii. Had this been done, the Americans could have spoiled the Japanese sneak attack and save most of the 2,400 lives lost and minimized the injured not to mention the naval ships lost.

      Completely not ready. Intelligence networks didn't talk to each other. Military was behind in just about every category of aircraft, weapons, vehicles, and tactics save for a few notable exceptions (heavy machineguns, heavy bombers, trucks as examples). Not enough of the stuff we did have that was adequate. No, the Japanese saw their opportunity and they took it. They got very lucky...and unlucky. Because the American carriers weren't in port (unlucky). On the other hand, they also managed to achieve complete surprise against an enemy that had they had their act together should have been able to spot them coming (lucky). The local American commander in Hawaii was more worried about Japanese saboteurs than a Japanese attack, which is why many Army fighters were lined up perfectly to be bombed (very lucky). Everything you see in "Tora, Tora, Tora!" is factual or based on actual events. Never put down to conspiracy what can be easily explained by stupidity.
