About this product

Product Information

Steven Spielberg's 1941 is a big-budget zany comedy detailing the hilarious panic that gripped Los Angeles after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Army General Joseph Stilwell (Robert Stack) is in charge of protecting the Californian coastline in the weeks following Pearl Harbor. Dan Aykroyd and John Candy are members of a tank crew responsible for setting up a cannon in Ned Beatty's backyard. As explosions burst forth and air-raid sirens scream, John Belushi, Tim Matheson, and Treat Williams are part of the army corp reacting to the news of war with a somewhat energetic craziness. They dance at the USO, compete with each other to get the prettiest girls, and watch as Hollywood Boulevard becomes a pile of ruins. The film features cameos by many Spielberg friends and associates, including directors Sam Fuller and John Landis and actors James Caan, Mickey Rourke, Penny Marshall, and Susan Backlinie, reprising her famous skinny-dip from the first scene in JAWS. Michael McKean and David Lander, otherwise known as Lenny and Squiggy from LAVERNE AND SHIRLEY, play Willie and Joe--a hat's-off salute to Bill Maudlin's famous World War II cartoon characters. The film suffered from critical venom upon its initial release but has since become a cult fave.

  • 1941 (1979)

    1941 is Not Really A Great Comedy with All star Cast Like The way With IT'S A MAD,MAD,MAD,MAD WORLD Was in 1963. The Reason Why 1941 was a Bad Movie Because STEVEN SPIELBERG Doesn't Make A Great Comedy I Rather has CARL REINER,JOHN LANDIS,ZUCKER BROTHERS and FRANK OZ to Direct 1941. This Film Has Great Cast like JOHN BELUSHI,DAN AYKROYD,TREAT WILLIAMS,NED BEATTY,ROBERT STACK,NANCY ALLEN,LORRAINE GARY,MURRAY HAMILTON,EDDIE DEEZEN,BOBBY DI CICCO,JOHN CANDY,FRANK McRAY,JOHN FLAHERTY,SLIM PICKENS,ELISHA COOK JR.,WARREN OATES and CHRISTOPHER LEE. Don't Miss Having 1941 For Your Blu-Ray/DVD Collection.
