To The Shores Of Iwo Jima (1945)
Loading...
Uploaded by nuclearvault on Feb 1, 2010
An Academy Award nominee for Best Documentary, this 20 minute Technicolor production unfolds with graphic energy the nearly month long battle for Iwo Jima, a volcanic island lying 700 miles southeast of Japan, in which 20000 Japanese and nearly 7000 American fighting men were killed, a struggle eternalized by Joe Rosenthal's photograph of five Marines and a Navy corpsman raising a giant U.S. flag atop 550 foot high Mt. Suribachi, cinematically captured here in this well-edited (by Warner Bros.) effort.

@Gingervention They only said that because the japs were very heaviley outnumbered. Every single jap on that island knew they were going to die but it was just a question of how soon? They were ordered to stay on the island to the death and fight for their home land.
