Battle
of the Midway—short film—works on the level of a
war propaganda film. It uses the considerable talents of Director John Ford to
deliver its message.
Storyline
This
movie acts like it is telling the 1942 story of the attack on Midway.
Additional Thanks
Thank
you to Director John Ford for directing effort. Thank you to Producer John Ford
for making the film possible. Additional characters/cast include: Narrators
(Henry Fonda and Jane Darwell), Himself (Logan Ramsey), Himself (James
Roosevelt) Main Narrator (voice of Donald Crisp), Narrator (voice of Irving Pichel),
and Himself (Jimmie Thach).
Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?
Yes.
Despite the lack of completeness in information, the film makes a good study
for academics who are studying film or film history.
