Plot summary for
1941 (1979)


Watching this director's cut, it's finally possible to see why the studio made Spielberg
mercilessly hack up this comedy: it's a screaming movie (everyone screams a lot), and
screaming movies do not need character development. So all those character-development
scenes hit the cutting-room floor and, surprise, they were all critical to Spielberg's
pace for the humor in this film. The screaming wasn't that funny then--and it still
isn't--but what is funny are the reinserted development scenes, showcasing the now-evident
sense of hysteria in the Los Angeles community, post-Pearl Harbor. A bunch of certified
nitwits, and a few certified lunatics, act as if Tojo Hideki's entire Imperial force is
just off the mainland. Actually, one Japanese submarine is, and it helps fuel the frenzy.
John Belushi is Wild Bill Kelso, an insane fighter pilot, and Dan Aykroyd plays a
conciliatory tank commander. Robert Stack's performance as General Stilwell, one of the
best of the film, finally makes sense. Also fun for the numerous cameos, Spielberg's inside
jokes, and John Williams's great score.
