Abstract:
The attack on Pearl Harbor on the seventh of December 1941 changed the world forever. The United States entered WW Two. More than 110,000 citizens of Japanese origin were rounded up and dispatched to camps until the end of the war. With the arrival of the Cold War, the enemy image had to change quickly, and Hollywood obliged. Clara and Julia Kuperberg found the right interview partners in Joseph McBride, film critic; Nancy Wang Yuen, author of "Reel Inequality"; Tamlyn Tomita, actress, and Dan Akira, specialist of Japanese film history, to show how strong an influence the silver screen has on society.
