I managed to slog through 6/10ths of PEARL HARBOR, the 2002 remake on DVD. Mostly watered down and at the same time exaggerated Hollywood spin. I WAS intrigued however by the info-mmercial style perspective of historical background. I mean let’s face it: The audience for this entertainment is by now 3 generations removed. Wow. The cast and crew only know about W.W.II from previous film iterations and watching Ernest Borgnine , Cliff Robertson, Vic Morrow, Charlton Heston… It seemed to emphasize that the movie’s storyline has been told and re-told to the point of becoming legend and fantasy.
