　　From the Iraq war to the Spartan war, all the classic wars have been told countless times by movies that have only been born for more than a hundred years for thousands of years, but the Pearl Harbor incident, the fuse of the Pacific War, is rarely involved. But only a few are classics. On April 21st, the spy war blockbuster "Dongfeng Rain" directed by China director Liu Yunlong will be released soon. The film tells the audience for the first time about the fierce dark war that took place in Shanghai, the spy war center of the Far East.

　　Focus: spy war. Compared with the Pearl Harbor incident itself, the spy wars before and after it are actually more mysterious, and many details of the incident are still inconclusive. At that time, in Shanghai, the spy war center of the Far East, intelligence personnel from many countries also intercepted the information of the sneak attack. What will they do with this most important information in history? Dongfeng Rain will tell the audience in detail this unknown history for the first time in the history of film.

　　Highlight: the plot. As the first person in China’s spy war drama, Liu Yunlong spared no expense in spending hundreds of millions of yuan to truly restore the surging spy war situation in Shanghai during World War II. Screenwriter Yang Jian spent a lot of energy and read countless historical materials, and created a ups and downs script for the film on the basis of historical facts. In the film, spies from all countries and parties are fighting each other, and the situation is changing rapidly. Until the last minute, no one can guess the result of the matter.

Pearl Harbor, 2001

　　Key point: emotion. "Pearl Harbor" is the most popular Pearl Harbor film. Besides its more direct title, the film is indeed much better than the previous two films in quality. The film puts the love triangle of several soldiers in the background of the Pacific War, and tells the cruelty of the war from the emotional side. Putting feelings on such a high level, this film has to be called a classic.

　　Highlight: the scene. Michael bay’s special effects never let the audience down. Six years before Transformers, his ambition for the grand scene of the film had already begun to take shape. The budget of up to 200 million dollars could hardly fill the bottomless pit of the special effects of the film. Pearl Harbor reached its peak in props, actors and technology. Grand scenes and magnificent feelings, typical Hollywood.

　　Focus: history. The film was co-produced by the United States and Japan. It is unprecedented for the two sides of the war to come together to make a film, and the director is also one from each side. At that time, the purpose of preparing the film was to present that period of history. The film told every event before and after the war in detail, which was a good choice for the audience trying to understand the history at that time.

　　Highlight: true. Focus on history, and the thing to be done is truth. Tiger! Tiger! "has a very high historical value, and has achieved an extremely objective degree in point of view. It’s hard to find any obvious loopholes except a few goof shots found by fans. Even the props used in the film are all copied in true proportion, and many of them are collected in museums.

　　Focus: American troops. The film tells the story of the American Pacific garrison on the eve of Pearl Harbor time. In the film, the trumpeter Bull saw the extremely chaotic side of the army. He tried his best to adapt the facts, but in the end he could do nothing in front of the dark forces and died tragically in a sneak attack. The Pearl Harbor incident in the film only played the role of the finale, and the theme of the film was placed on the dark side of the American army at that time.

　　Highlights: acting skills. At that time, when the film technology was difficult to make a difference, the acting skills of the film actors were fully demonstrated. The wonderful performances of several winners and actresses helped the film win eight Oscars (the 26th), and the film also created countless classic scenes and beautiful shots, which was called "the best film to show the Pearl Harbor incident in the 20th century".
