The Battle Of Hong Kong (film)
''The Battle of Hong Kong'' (), also known as ''The Day England Fell'', is the sole film made in Hong Kong during the Japanese occupation from 1941 to 1945. The 1942 film was produced by the Japanese Dai Nippon Film Company, was directed by Shigeo Tanaka (田中重雄 ''Tanaka Shigeo'') and featured an all-Japanese cast, but some Hong Kong film personalities were also involved in its making. The Japanese used the film to spread anti-British propaganda; the film portrays the British as having brutal and racist attitudes while in Hong Kong.

Battle Of Hong Kong
The Battle of Hong Kong (8–25 December 1941), also known as the Defence of Hong Kong and the Fall of Hong Kong, was one of the first battles of the Pacific War in World War II. On the same morning as the attack on Pearl Harbor, forces of the Empire of Japan attacked the British Crown colony of Hong Kong, without declaring war against the British Empire. The Hong Kong garrison consisted of British, Indian and Canadian units, also the Auxiliary Defence Units and Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps (HKVDC). Within a week the defenders abandoned the 2 of the 3 territories of Hong Kong ( Kowloon and New Territories) on the mainland, and less than two weeks later, with their last territory Hong Kong Island untenable, the colony surrendered.

On 21 October 1938 the Japanese occup ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
