This film has some pretty great performances, too, including Gig Young, John Garfield, and Harry Carey. James Brown is in this, too – handsome as all get out but a terrible performance.
Air Force is unfortunately but truly marred by its propagandistic lies. It's a beautiful movie that hates the Japanese, a fact which, perhaps can be forgiven since the country was at war, but the lies that this movie spreads about attacks at Pearl Harbor by Japanese Americans? Inexcusable. And those lies had severe consequences for so many of our countrymen.
