Movie Haiku:Epic recounting the "calm before the storm" of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor on 12/7/41. Swooning '50's erotic chemistry between the 2 ill-fated couples: Kerr & Lancaster (Rich's favorite) and Reed & Clift (Jan's favorite). Oscar nominations all around & multiple wins including Sinatra as the incorrigible, unforgettable Maggio.
