69. "Pearl Harbor" (2001)

<p>Happy (?) Dec. 7! To mark the anniversary World War II Movie Night finally gets to the only movie to bear the event's name, 2001's "Pearl Harbor." A red-hot Michael Bay used his clout to make this Disney summer blockbuster (in a darkly ironic twist, released just a few months before Sept. 11). The results? Well... it's complicated. Tonight we explore not only the movie but the culture that surrounded it, and exactly why Michael Bay was so popular... Asides include-too many to name. </p> <p>Drop us a line at <a href= "mailto:worldwartwomovienight@gmail.com">worldwartwomovienight@gmail.com</a></p> <p>Check out our Twitter at <a href= "http://twitter.com/WWIIMovieNight">http://twitter.com/WWIIMovieNight</a>  </p>
