Steven Spielberg's
Video Movie Suggestion by Art Griggs
A young British boy's noble spirit allows him to survive the hardships of a
Japanese prison camp in China during World War II.
amazone.com essential video
Roundly dismissed as one of Steven Spielberg's
least successful efforts, this very underrated film poignantly follows
the World War II adventures of young Jim (a brilliant Christian Bale),
caught in the throes of the fall of China. What if you once had everything
and lost it all in an afternoon? What if you were only 12? Bale's
transformation, from pampered British ruling-class child to an imprisoned,
desperate, nearly feral boy, is nothing short of stunning. Also stunning
are exceptional sets, cinematography, and music (the last courtesy of John
Williams) that enhance author J.G. Ballard's and screenwriter Tom Stoppard's
depiction of another, less familiar casualty of war.
Epic "coming of age" war drama from director Steven Spielberg follows a
young British boy's harrowing experiences in 1940s Shanghai. Separated from his
family during the Japanese invasion and thrown into a prison camp, the boy
develops a friendship with a captured American. Christian Bale, John Malkovich,
Miranda Richardson star. 152 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtracks: English

Craig Tinder. Featuring a profile of "AI-102" - the A6M2 Zero that, flown off

of Battleship Row on that fateful day, this 19"x 13" print is signed by the

Akagi proceed to the opening strike at Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941. 26"x 20"

Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero
Tony Weddel. The Zero's great speed, maneuverability, and long range initially
made it seem invincible, but by the war's end it was usually defeated by the
more numerous and powerful U.S. fighters. This scene portrays Japanese ace
Saburo Sakai on June 24 1944, as he attempts to evade a force of U.S. Hellcats
off of Iwo Jima. 23"x 19" print.

A Shot Across the Bow
Roy Grinnell. Moments after releasing a torpedo at the Japanese carrier Akagi at
the onset of the Battle of Midway, the B-26 Marauder Suzi-Q thunders down the
Japanese carrier's flight deck, nearly grazing the bridge in an attempt to
escape the gantlet of fire unleashed by the enemy surface fleet and swarming
Zero fighters. 30"x 20" limited edition, numbered print is signed by the artist
and James Muri, pilot of the Suzi-Q. |
Morning Thunder
Robert Taylor. During the second wave of attacks on Pearl Harbor, the "West
Virginia" is ablaze after six torpedo hits and two bomb strikes from the first
attack. With her bows already low in the water and decks awash, the crews ignore
the risks and push the Navy tug "Hoga" alongside to fight the fires and pick up

on Ford Island. Signed and numbered by the artist and 8 Pearl Harbor survivors,

Nakajima A6M2-N Rufe
Tony Weddel. The Rufe was born out of the Japanese Navy's need for a single-seat
fighter that could be used primarily from military installations on small
Pacific Islands, where it was impossible to build landing fields. Except for the
addition of floats and some minor structural changes, it was almost identical to
the Zero in design and performance. Here, Rufes defend Japanese shipping from
American B-25s and P-38s during the Aleutian campaign. 23"x 19" print. |
Shoot-Out Over Saigon
Randy Green. Used as bait to lure Japanese Zeros into a trap, the 42nd Bomb

Birth of a Legend
Stan Stokes. Print depicts Colin Kelly's B-17 under heavy attack from Zero
fighters led by the ranking Japanese ace, Saburo Sakai. As Kelly piloted the
crippled aircraft back to the Philippines, he ordered his crew to bail out, and
his attempt to crash-land the B-17 failed, killing him. His dramatic effort,
combined with his earlier bombing of a Japanese ship, made him one of the war's
first heroes. Limited edition 16"x 11" print is signed and numbered by the
artist. |

Brewster F2A-3 Buffalo
Tony Weddel. The only combat action involving Buffalos (in U.S. hands) was at
the Battle of Midway, where the Marine pilots of VMF-221 flew from the island's
airbase and intercepted an incoming Japanese aerial strike. Several Val
dive-bombers fell to the Buffalo's guns, but Zeros quickly jumped the Buffalos,
most of which were shot down in the ensuing battle. Buffaloes were then
withdrawn from front line duties and never used by U.S. forces in combat again.
23"x 19" print.

and numbered by the artist and Major Henebry. |

Japan en route to China.
This 23"x 23", limited edition, numbered print is signed by the artist and by
