Handlung
WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesWhile directing, Roger Spottiswoode tried to be even-handed in the portrayal of the Japanese military leaders, and it was the Japanese co-director who would keep coming back and saying "You don't really understand; they were much more intransigent than that." Some of the top military men over there had a pretty good idea of the resources required for the bomb, and didn't believe anyone could sustain the attacks.
- PatzerA comment was made in a conference with Col. Tibbets that changing course over the target from going upwind to downwind; "lowering the airspeed over the target" was not recommended. Airspeed is not a function of prevailing winds even if 1 to 3 times or more than that of the aircraft's speed. Groundspeed is the accurate term. Wind direction and speed has no effect on airspeed which is solely a function of aircraft attitude and power settings only.

Ausgewählte Rezension
This is a brilliant, meticulous recreation of the events, both political and military, leading up to the tragic attack on Hiroshima in August 1945.
Brilliant performance by Kenneth Welsh as the Missouri haberdasher President Truman, strangely ill-dressed throughout this film in his trademark double-breasted suit and multi-coloured shoes. Here, Truman is a simplistic, Forrest Gump style president grappling with enormous moral issues about using the new gadget'.
The excellent cinematography recreates the story in newsreel style footage, intercut with interviews with several people from the time. Also, shows the Japanese situation in Tokyo and the hardline military people on both sides.
