    Started within days of the attack, the original film was 82 minutes long and asked some embarrassing questions, such as why there was no long-range reconnaissance and no short-range air patrols. Further, the film devoted a lot of time to the culture of the 160,000 Japanese in Hawaii and their response to the attack. For these reasons, the long version of the film was censored for decades.
