1941 is a movie directed by Steven Spielberg and starred John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. A comedy about the panic that occurs after the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, the film is generally considered to be Spielberg's first major box office flop after nearly a decade of box office success.
Plot
The story takes place days after the
attack on Pearl Harbor, with panic and chaos among the citizens of
Los Angeles. The story is told through connecting vignettes. At the center of the story is a crusty general (
Robert Stack) who tries to bring order among the people whose lives are intertwined with others. It is notable as one of the few American films featuring
Toshiro Mifune, the best-known
Japanese actor in the history of film. The Plot is based on two actual incidents that occurred during World War Two. The first is the
West coast air raid. The second was the shelling of a West coast oil refinery by a Japanese Submarine. Both incidents occurred in 1942.
Box Office Flop?
The
film, mainly a production of
Columbia Pictures (with some help from
Universal Studios), was a moderate
box office success, but not the
blockbuster film the producers were hoping for. Because the film failed to match the box office numbers of Spielberg's previous films,
Jaws and
Close Encounters of the Third Kind,
1941 was considered a flop by comparison and a stain on Spielberg's reputation.
