00:01:20♪♪
00:01:30Now you're not going to compare them little itty-bitty bus seats with the seats on my train, are you?
00:01:35Oh, Daddy, you get to see so much more scenery on a bus.
00:01:38I feel a knife in my back, Helen.
00:01:40Oh, Frank.
00:01:41Oh, wait a minute.
00:01:43Father, I've seen his daughter all summer.
00:01:45He's got a right to expect a little, uh...
00:01:47Love and respect.
00:01:49That's right, yes.
00:01:50And that's exactly what you're going to get.
00:01:52Hey!
00:01:55Hey, wait a minute.
00:01:56What do these people say?
00:01:58Why, they will say that, well, who's that lucky man with that pretty girl draped around his neck?
00:02:03That's what they'll say.
00:02:04Say, did you learn anything in that summer school, Angel?
00:02:07Oh, yes.
00:02:08I learned the next time you get transferred, I'm going with you.
00:02:11I miss you too much.
00:02:12That's my girl.
00:02:15Well, it's going to be good to see Harlan again.
00:02:18I wish he could have come with you.
00:02:20Oh, you know Harlan.
00:02:21Your brother hears the basketball bouncing, he starts bouncing.
00:02:24♪♪
00:02:35Hey, save it for Das Cruises, Harlan.
00:02:37Oh, dirty!
00:02:38Damn it, boy!
00:02:39Don't you start anything you can't wind up.
00:02:41Easy, cousin.
00:02:42You cheap shot!
00:02:44You best think on behaving like your old man's sheep.
00:02:47Back in my country...
00:02:48Tell us all about it, Okie.
00:02:50Sure, Jap.
00:02:52Back in my country, people know their place.
00:02:54You Japs!
00:02:57Why, you...
00:02:58Jap!
00:03:22Jap!
00:03:28Jap!
00:03:42Gentlemen...
00:03:44This is unsatisfactory.
00:03:49We're not going to have this happen one more time, are we?
00:03:58♪♪
00:04:13Well, I'm all set.
00:04:14I surely templed all the credit for one that Brad sent.
00:04:19Dad, I think you got a good transfer this time.
00:04:22I hope so, Amy.
00:04:24Well, it's not Oklahoma,
00:04:25but thank God it's not Arkansas again.
00:04:29What do people do around here for fun?
00:04:31Well, you can go down and join the crowd
00:04:33watching the Chinaman steam pressing machine.
00:04:36Why, the main street light changes every 30 seconds.
00:04:39It's a long way from Stillwater, ain't it?
00:04:41Oh, I have no complaint.
00:04:43It's so quiet and peaceful here.
00:04:45How about the picture show?
00:04:47I think it's Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers this week.
00:04:51Maybe tomorrow.
00:04:52I still feel glued to that bus seat.
00:04:53I need to go take a walk.
00:04:54Well, there's a few flower farms just a few blocks away.
00:04:57You could go out and watch the buds open.
00:04:59Hey, it's getting dark soon.
00:05:02I think you ought to wander around alone.
00:05:04Oh, what can happen?
00:05:06Now, watch yourself, dear.
00:05:08Have a good time, dear.
00:05:11♪♪
00:05:20Hi.
00:05:21Oh, hello.
00:05:23Well, welcome to California.
00:05:27You're Eileen, right?
00:05:28Right.
00:05:29My name is Kramer.
00:05:31Besides being your next-door neighbor,
00:05:33I'm going to be your English lip teacher.
00:05:36Oh, how nice.
00:05:37Well, your family certainly have been looking forward
00:05:40to seeing you.
00:05:42I felt the same way myself, having you in my class.
00:05:46Well, I won't bother you anymore.
00:05:48I'm just going to take a look around before dark.
00:05:50Well, thank you for saying hello.
00:05:53It's nice to know you.
00:05:54Bye.
00:05:55Bye.
00:05:56♪♪
00:06:06♪♪
00:06:16♪♪
00:06:26♪♪
00:06:36♪♪
00:06:46♪♪
00:06:56♪♪
00:07:10Does anybody here speak American English?
00:07:18I can manage a few words.
00:07:22It's all right.
00:07:23She's a friend.
00:07:25She's the station master's daughter.
00:07:32Small town.
00:07:34My name is David.
00:07:36This is my father, Achiro Tayanika.
00:07:43It's unusual, but I welcome you.
00:07:48Well, Mr. Tayanika, I was walking through the fields
00:07:51on my way home, and I heard the music,
00:07:53and I thought, what is this?
00:07:55It's fine.
00:07:56Uh, stay.
00:07:58Uh, we meet?
00:08:00David?
00:08:01Sure.
00:08:07You're at the Oban, or the Festival of the Lanterns,
00:08:10or the Feast of All Souls.
00:08:12Take your pick.
00:08:13All three names are correct.
00:08:15It's just beautiful.
00:08:16Ma, this is, I think your last name is Phillips?
00:08:20Eileen Phillips.
00:08:22It's a tough man on the basket.
00:08:24Welcome.
00:08:25Your father and mother have much pretty girls.
00:08:29Oh, please have some.
00:08:30No, Ma.
00:08:31She doesn't want any of that jive.
00:08:33There's something inside you might like much better.
00:08:35Oh, that's all right.
00:08:36I like Chinese food.
00:08:43In here.
00:08:48Shazam.
00:08:49Oh, that's funny.
00:08:51It's not knowing Chinese from Japanese.
00:08:53I'm sorry.
00:08:54Here.
00:08:55Eat.
00:08:57You're welcome.
00:09:00It's not too Japanesey.
00:09:02I'm lucky.
00:09:03Dad always thought, win in America, be American.
00:09:10Mom.
00:09:11She kind of holds on to some of those old customs.
00:09:17Don't tell me there's a poetry nut here, too.
00:09:20Pardon?
00:09:21That's what my brother calls me, a poetry nut.
00:09:23Really?
00:09:24Well, so am I.
00:09:25But I'm not sure I always understand it.
00:09:27He does.
00:09:28Come on.
00:09:40That's my older cousin, Tadashi.
00:09:47Here's something else you might like to see.
00:09:50Come on.
00:10:08Want to swing?
00:10:10It looks like fun, and I'd love to, but I've really got to go.
00:10:13We'd like you to stay.
00:10:16I appreciate it, but I must go.
00:10:19If you have to, I'll drive you home, OK?
00:10:22Uh, well...
00:10:25OK.
00:10:26OK.
00:10:37How about this one?
00:10:40To one who has been long in a city penchant,
00:10:42it is very sweet to look into the fair and open face of heaven,
00:10:46to breathe a prayer full in the smile of the blue firmament.
00:10:50John.
00:10:53You're very good.
00:10:56Uh, that was my road.
00:11:03Your turn.
00:11:12The world is too much with us, late and soon.
00:11:15Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers.
00:11:20Little we see in nature that is ours.
00:11:24Shakespeare?
00:11:26Wordsworth.
00:11:27I always get those two confused.
00:11:33It's really great to know someone who likes poetry.
00:11:36My folks don't understand it at all.
00:11:38Mine neither.
00:11:40You're about to have one of my songs.
00:12:10No, I love it!
00:12:40What else do you like, David?
00:12:44I like Bob Hope,
00:12:47Crosby songs,
00:12:50basketball, Hemingway, Colliers,
00:12:53Ronald Lloyd.
00:12:57What else?
00:13:01You're very pretty, Eileen.
00:13:05Nice of you to say so.
00:13:10David, I really have to go home.
00:13:14I'd like to see you again, Eileen.
00:13:17Well, you don't have to.
00:13:20I want to.
00:13:23We can...
00:13:25We can go to a drive-in movie.
00:13:27Friday night?
00:13:30I don't know.
00:13:32Saturday night?
00:13:35It's not that, it's just that...
00:13:40You're right.
00:13:43Absolutely right.
00:13:45Oh, David, I didn't mean it that way.
00:13:49I just meant that...
00:13:53I'm scared.
00:14:10I didn't think you were coming.
00:14:13I almost didn't.
00:14:16I told my folks I was going roller-skating.
00:14:19I told my folks I was going to a recital with Miss Kramer.
00:14:35It's lovely.
00:14:38It's lovely.
00:14:41You're simply beautiful.
00:14:47But...
00:14:49You're simply beautiful, but...
00:14:52Four weeks.
00:14:54Four weeks of empty beaches and dark corners.
00:15:00Come on.
00:15:04There's a cave over here!
00:15:08A girl who wishes to be kept in secret will find a cave?
00:15:12Japanese proverb?
00:15:14Armenian.
00:15:33How's the rich Tarzan?
00:15:35I love Tarzan.
00:15:38What else do you love, Eileen?
00:15:40Oh, I love beach caves...
00:15:45Security blankets, putting pennies on railroad tracks, daffodils...
00:15:49Butterflies, cold hot dogs, and...
00:15:52And an angle-eyed Japanese-American boy named David...
00:15:57I don't know anything about you.
00:15:59You Japanese gentlemen have little names.
00:16:03Thomas.
00:16:04David Thomas Tayanita.
00:16:07David Thomas Tayanita?
00:16:09I love you.
00:16:19You're an honor student, an all-conference basketball guard, an Eagle Scout?
00:16:24Why would you be interested in me? I'm nothing but a nobody.
00:16:27You're beautiful. Smart.
00:16:30Why would you love me?
00:16:32I'm nothing but a chap.
00:16:34Oh, baloney.
00:16:36I do love you, Eileen.
00:16:39It's wrong.
00:16:41And it's right.
00:16:57Two candles?
00:16:59Two months.
00:17:01Happy anniversary.
00:17:03Happy anniversary.
00:17:06We even got our own private harbor.
00:17:08Doesn't everybody?
00:17:09I've never known anyone like you, Eileen.
00:17:11White, yellow, purple, low shot shoes.
00:17:13And you're never again going to know anybody like me.
00:17:16Eileen.
00:17:18Tayanita.
00:17:21Eileen Tayanita.
00:17:25Do you really believe it?
00:17:28Eileen Tayanita?
00:17:30Do you believe in David Tayanita?
00:17:33Eileen Tayanita.
00:17:38I believe it.
00:17:40Then it's settled. We're getting married.
00:17:43They won't let us. Our families.
00:17:45I know, but we're going to do it.
00:17:47When?
00:17:48On a Sunday. That's when everybody gets married.
00:17:50How?
00:17:51Leave it to me. I know a man.
00:17:53What? You can't get married by just any old man.
00:17:55You can by this man. But we need a witness.
00:17:58Miss Kramer.
00:18:00Miss Kramer.
00:18:02We're really going to do it.
00:18:06No more dark corners.
00:18:08I love you.
00:18:15Different colored flowers grow side by side.
00:18:18Make fine garden.
00:18:21Armenian proverb?
00:18:24Japanese.
00:18:26My father.
00:18:30Still feel the same, honey?
00:18:32Why don't you just take it easy now, Russ?
00:18:34The best thing for a headache.
00:18:37If it's not gone by the time we get back, we'll have the doctor in.
00:18:40I'm sorry I'm not going with you.
00:18:42So are we. Bye-bye, Eileen.
00:18:44Don't fret about that.
00:18:47Dink agreed.
00:18:49What?
00:18:50In church, say a little prayer for me.
00:18:52You feel that badly?
00:18:54No, but I'm sure it'll help.
00:18:57Bye, Eileen.
00:18:59Stay warm, dear.
00:19:23David, I just don't know.
00:19:25I've known your father for so many years.
00:19:28It's not right to do this to him.
00:19:31But what about her parents?
00:19:33Father, once it's done, they'll accept it.
00:19:36You're so young, you're just children.
00:19:38Father, there's no age limit on being in love.
00:19:41I know what I feel.
00:19:43Maybe.
00:19:45And maybe not.
00:19:58Do you still want me?
00:20:00Yes, I want you.
00:20:04Father, this is Eileen Helen Phillips.
00:20:07Hello, Eileen.
00:20:08Hello, Father.
00:20:10He won't say yes, he won't say no.
00:20:12You work on him.
00:20:15Eileen.
00:20:17This is a very important decision.
00:20:19I want to be his wife.
00:20:22It's especially difficult when you have the burden of other people's pain.
00:20:26When you have the burden of other people's prejudice.
00:20:29And have it, you will.
00:20:31I know.
00:20:32I'm not sure that you do.
00:20:34If you're willing to enter into marriage,
00:20:36with your eyes wide open,
00:20:38knowing that it's going to be extremely difficult.
00:20:40There'll be happiness too, Father.
00:20:42Enough for me, no matter how difficult it gets.
00:20:46If I refuse to marry you, what then?
00:20:49I guess we'll just have to be married in the eyes of God.
00:20:52You mean that?
00:20:53I don't want to live without him, Father.
00:20:55I know only too well that it's right for both of us.
00:20:58How can you be so sure?
00:21:02There comes one moment, once.
00:21:05And God help those who pass that moment by.
00:21:09When beauty stands looking into the soul,
00:21:12with grave sweet eyes.
00:21:16Yes.
00:21:17Her stand.
00:21:25Her stand.
00:21:55Here they come.
00:21:57Nervous?
00:21:58Yeah.
00:22:00They think I'm homesick.
00:22:02When they find out I'm married, well...
00:22:09Folks!
00:22:10Yo!
00:22:11Hey!
00:22:12Folks!
00:22:13Hey!
00:22:14Hey!
00:22:15Hey!
00:22:16Hey!
00:22:17Hey!
00:22:18Hey!
00:22:19Hey!
00:22:20Hey!
00:22:21Hey!
00:22:22Hey!
00:22:23Hey!
00:22:24Hey, folks!
00:22:26Before you hear anything else,
00:22:28I want you to know we've got everything taken care of.
00:22:32The Japs have bombed Pearl Harbor.
00:22:37What?
00:22:39Pearl Harbor.
00:22:42That's in Hawaii.
00:22:43Say, you people, you just go on home now
00:22:46and turn on your radios and don't get excited.
00:22:49If we need any of you, we'll holler for you.
00:22:54All right.
00:23:24Let's go.
00:23:46This is not another Orson Welles radio play.
00:23:49This is the tragic and real thing.
00:23:52have bombed Pearl Harbor.
00:23:54The Japanese have bombed Pearl Harbor.
00:23:56A few short hours ago, without warning,
00:23:59the Japanese launched an unprovoked attack
00:24:01on US ships in the Pearl Harbor Naval Base, Hawaii,
00:24:04and simultaneously attacked strategic points
00:24:07in the Philippines and the island of Guam.
00:24:09Japanese planes also bombed targets
00:24:11in Singapore and Hong Kong.
00:24:13Japanese troops also landed in Malaya
00:24:16and crossed into Thailand from Indochina.
00:24:19And all of this while the Japanese envoys
00:24:21were in Washington assuring our government
00:24:24of their government's wish for peace.
00:24:26Now the question that is being asked
00:24:28is, how much of the destruction that occurred at Pearl Harbor
00:24:31was the result of sabotage?
00:24:34Until an investigation has been made, of course,
00:24:36one can only speculate.
00:24:38And while the Japanese attack was a complete surprise,
00:24:41it did come at the end of a series of events
00:24:43that have continued to increase the strain and tension
00:24:46in Japanese relations with the United States and Great
00:24:49Britain.
00:24:50Here's another bulletin just handed to me.
00:24:52Russian armies have broken through the German line
00:24:54on the Moscow front at two points
00:24:56and destroyed two German divisions.
00:24:59Now back to the background of the Japanese attack.
00:25:01Made in China, Dad.
00:25:02No problem, right?
00:25:04No.
00:25:05No, not a chance.
00:25:07Let's go.
00:25:08Let's go.
00:25:091938, Japan invaded China and captured Kampan.
00:25:19Miss Kramer?
00:25:21Eileen?
00:25:26The whole town's gone mad.
00:25:29Eileen?
00:25:31Do they know about you and David?
00:25:33No.
00:25:34We couldn't tell them.
00:25:35They've got enough problems.
00:25:38I'm so sorry.
00:25:59Miss Kramer.
00:26:00Hello.
00:26:01Come in.
00:26:02Come in.
00:26:04My English teacher, Miss Kramer, and our Oban
00:26:07visitor, Eileen Phillips.
00:26:13Mr. and Mrs. Tayanaga, a number of us
00:26:17have been going to all the Japanese families
00:26:20and telling them that we're sorry, we're concerned,
00:26:27and we'll help in any way.
00:26:35Hi, Ted.
00:26:36The radio says we Californian Japs have been building
00:26:39an army and are ready to rise.
00:26:40Yes.
00:26:41And they're saying we've sprayed the truck producer
00:26:43with arsenic in the last two days
00:26:45and put ground glass in the raw fish that has been
00:26:48delivered to the market.
00:26:50But are they going to remember that there are 78,000
00:26:52Japanese Americans who have never seen Japan?
00:26:55Will they remember how many Japanese
00:26:57fought in World War I?
00:27:01Take a look in your father's closet.
00:27:03He still has the uniform and the medal.
00:27:11We don't know what to expect.
00:27:13So we stay together and we pray.
00:27:20Thank you for coming.
00:27:22Oh, not at all.
00:27:25I'll see you out.
00:27:34David?
00:27:38Not now.
00:27:41I'll meet you at the arbor.
00:27:43About 8 o'clock.
00:27:47I'll meet you at the arbor.
00:27:49About 8.
00:27:50I'll be there.
00:27:54I'll always be there.
00:27:57And we thank you for the food on our table.
00:28:00We ask that you help keep our family together.
00:28:02And God bless our country, America.
00:28:07Amen.
00:28:09Well, there's no need for this.
00:28:12No need.
00:28:14Folks, this is a very sorry way to meet somebody.
00:28:17I know that.
00:28:18But this here's Mr. Koslow.
00:28:19He's with the government.
00:28:20This may not seem right to you, but there's a war on.
00:28:23Folks, I got a list here.
00:28:27It's got some things on it we're supposed to pick up.
00:28:30That is, if you folks have any of this.
00:28:33Have you seen it?
00:28:35If you folks have any of this, if you don't mind,
00:28:38I'm going to look around a little bit.
00:29:06Sheriff, can you come in here a minute?
00:29:12What about this?
00:29:17No, that's under 8 inches, isn't it?
00:29:20Well, yeah.
00:29:22Well, it says right here it's okay, then.
00:29:35Morse code book.
00:29:38He was the boy, Scott.
00:29:39That's his handbook.
00:29:41It's on the list, isn't it?
00:29:43It's on the list.
00:29:44Well, all right, then.
00:29:46Oh, boy.
00:29:55Oh.
00:29:57Oh, my.
00:29:58I'm sorry, folks.
00:30:00Golly.
00:30:05We don't expect any type of light movement from this farm.
00:30:08So do all the things you need vision for in the daylight.
00:30:14Hey, can they speak English?
00:30:16Of course they can speak English.
00:30:18Now, is that what you want?
00:30:19Good.
00:30:20Then they understand.
00:30:22Well, is that it?
00:30:23Yeah, that's it.
00:30:25Okay, then let's get going.
00:30:36You folks be careful now.
00:30:51Hey, Sheriff.
00:30:53Look at this clothesline.
00:30:54Good thing I noticed.
00:30:56This could be used as a shortwave antenna.
00:30:59Oh, they found the right man for the job.
00:31:02That's for sure.
00:31:05Damn.
00:31:08David!
00:31:09Yo, David!
00:31:16Oh, where you off to?
00:31:20David.
00:31:22Son, you can't go anyplace.
00:31:24What?
00:31:25Not this time of night.
00:31:27Japanese can't be out after 6 o'clock.
00:31:29That's a brand new law.
00:31:32What?
00:31:34David.
00:31:36Son, anybody that breaks the curfew has to go to jail.
00:31:42I'm sorry, but...
00:31:44that's the way it is.
00:32:01I'm sorry.
00:32:31David.
00:32:49David.
00:32:50Eileen.
00:32:54I guess Pearl Harbor lets them spell that out on paper.
00:33:01I've been so worried about you.
00:33:03So many things have happened.
00:33:05You haven't been in school for two days.
00:33:07What for?
00:33:09David, we have to talk.
00:33:11I know.
00:33:14What are we gonna do?
00:33:16Not about the war or this town.
00:33:19About us.
00:33:20David, I'm your wife.
00:33:27My truck's behind the 5 and 10. Meet me there.
00:33:32If things don't work out, I can always get a shave.
00:33:41And they don't want me to go out at night.
00:33:43We're not allowed to go out.
00:33:45I know.
00:33:47How is it with your mom and dad?
00:33:49Same. Worse, actually.
00:33:52I know I told you they might let us stay with them, but now that's off.
00:33:55The way Dad's been treated, he wouldn't trust anybody, not even you.
00:33:58I don't blame him.
00:34:00My folks are worse than ever. They're just terrible.
00:34:03Why should they be different from the rest of us?
00:34:06David, what are we gonna do?
00:34:11I don't know.
00:34:14All I can say is that I love you.
00:34:16You're my wife.
00:34:18You're not sorry for that?
00:34:21I never will be.
00:34:23Me neither, David.
00:34:25Me neither.
00:34:27No matter what.
00:34:30No matter what.
00:34:35These Japs are a depraved breed who can't be dealt with like mischievous boys at a Sunday school picnic.
00:34:41We should wake up to the fact that protection of Americans is more important than what happens to the Jap roots.
00:34:47They live like rats, breed like rats, and act like rats.
00:34:52One more thing.
00:34:54You can't make an American out of a little Jap junior by handing him an American birth certificate.
00:34:59A Jap?
00:35:01What was that for?
00:35:03I can't hear it anymore. I can't read it anymore.
00:35:06What is it, Angel? What's the matter?
00:35:09There's just no logic.
00:35:11Logic?
00:35:13Well, you don't want them living near the military bases, now do you?
00:35:17They lived there before military bases.
00:35:20And they bought land under the power line.
00:35:23Because no white farmer would buy that land.
00:35:26It was just chance that they all lived near the coast.
00:35:30Most of us who live in California live near the coast.
00:35:33Look, I don't want to discuss it with you, Eileen. You're too young to understand.
00:35:38I've never seen you so hateful, so violent, so terrible.
00:35:42Well, there's certainly no need for you to get so upset about this.
00:35:45Daddy, they're people just like us.
00:35:48No. No, no, no, sweetheart. They are nothing like us.
00:35:51That's just the point. They're nothing like us at all.
00:35:56Can't I even talk to you about this?
00:35:58Eileen, will you listen?
00:36:00Helen, wait a minute.
00:36:02You're wrong, young lady. Absolutely wrong.
00:36:04These people are dangerous. They are the enemy.
00:36:06And you don't give hearts and flowers and love and kisses to people who would kill you without batting an eye.
00:36:17Daddy, try to understand. Please try.
00:36:21There's only one thing that I understand.
00:36:24And that is that no stinking Jap is worth busting us apart.
00:36:55About a hundred, you say?
00:37:00Well, at least you and your mom are still alive.
00:37:06Shakes a man's soul.
00:37:09Can't seem to help no one.
00:37:12A brown Santa Cruz in the asparagus field got tromped on, chopped up, wiped out.
00:37:19Every sheriff up there says,
00:37:21Gotta, gotta be at least 50 people to do that kind of damage in one night.
00:37:27Down at Brawley, shots get thrown into some homes.
00:37:33That's crazy. Oh, that's crazy. That's just crazy.
00:37:39Well, bite the bullet, son.
00:37:43My old daddy used to say,
00:37:47Hammers break glass and make steel.
00:37:57Let's get him!
00:37:59Hey!
00:38:03Get him out of here!
00:38:05You heard me! I told you to get out of here!
00:38:08You ever heard of Jack Bond's boys?
00:38:11Ah, you're a bunch of yellow-bellies, you two!
00:38:15Jack Bond's boy was on a ship, they say, to Pearl Harbor.
00:38:19He's still there. Still here, lads!
00:38:22Remember Pearl Harbor!
00:38:26No!
00:38:27Get him out of here!
00:38:29Bust him up! Drive him out!
00:38:32Get out of town, lads!
00:38:38Can't stop pain!
00:38:41Rotten families!
00:38:45Rotten families!
00:39:10Guess we'll be all right.
00:39:12Pretty bruised up, but at least we got a house today.
00:39:16With my father.
00:39:19David was my father, one of them.
00:39:22Please.
00:39:23Yes, but he wasn't a leader. He...
00:39:26He wasn't a leader.
00:39:42Hey.
00:39:59Hey, Har.
00:40:01Hey, Har. You're not gonna believe what I just saw.
00:40:04What?
00:40:05Your sister with, uh, I don't know what a Japanese David, uh...
00:40:09Where?
00:40:12Over there.
00:40:22I never realized how anyone could be put through such agony.
00:40:26Don't worry. My folks can take it.
00:40:29Oh, I'm sure they can.
00:40:31I just don't know about me.
00:40:33I know, honey.
00:40:35No, you don't.
00:40:38I'm a married woman. I want to feel like one.
00:40:42I want to be with you, sleep with you, feel you holding me.
00:40:47It'll be all right. God knows this can't last forever.
00:40:51I know.
00:40:54But neither can we, David.
00:40:58I don't see him anywhere.
00:41:00Don't believe me.
00:41:02Yeah, well, they could have gone through the fields back to town.
00:41:05Let's go.
00:41:27Hey, you seen a Jap named Tayaneka?
00:41:31Oh, wife of Count, wife of Count Anglici.
00:41:34I hear they're here.
00:41:39You see a Jap, a Jap about this high?
00:41:42See Jap?
00:41:47All right, all right.
00:41:58Bye, old buddy.
00:42:00Goodbye, Jap.
00:42:17Hey, where's your cousin?
00:42:19What?
00:42:21You don't want to see him?
00:42:23No.
00:42:25Why?
00:42:27You don't want to end up like them poor woolies. You better speak up.
00:42:29I got my own troubles.
00:42:31I hear he was messing around with my sister.
00:42:33What's the matter?
00:42:35Afraid you're going to have Japanese relatives?
00:42:37I drowned them first.
00:42:39You better get a big sack first.
00:42:41You Okies have big litters.
00:42:45I'll shove your yellow teeth to the bottom of your yellow belly.
00:42:48Come and get me, Okie.
00:42:52You know Kendo, Okie?
00:42:55Jap!
00:42:57You don't swing from the side, you come over the top.
00:43:04Learned a lot?
00:43:06Secret Jap army, don't you?
00:43:10Stop!
00:43:16Tadashi, don't!
00:43:18That's all right, Dave. The Oklahoma kids are going to show the Japs their place.
00:43:21Todd, stop it!
00:43:23Stop!
00:43:26Get on!
00:43:28I have to tell you something, both of you!
00:43:49Holy God!
00:43:51Holy God, holy God!
00:43:54Retire and slaughter.
00:43:56Come on!
00:44:09Wait! Wait! Wait!
00:44:12I can't go!
00:44:14I killed a guy!
00:44:16And I talked to somebody!
00:44:19I didn't get caught swiping watermelons, I killed a guy!
00:44:34Yeah, yeah, I got to see the sheriff.
00:44:37You guys go to the depot, get down!
00:44:42Stop it!
00:44:44Stop it!
00:44:47If you'd have stayed away from my sister, this never would have happened.
00:44:52You hear me?
00:44:54It's your fault!
00:44:56It's your fault!
00:45:16Go!
00:45:47Eileen?
00:45:49What is it, Miss Graver?
00:45:52Something...
00:45:54Something terrible has happened to your brother.
00:45:58Marlon?
00:46:00There was a fight.
00:46:02It's an accident.
00:46:04It's an accident.
00:46:06It's an accident.
00:46:08It's an accident.
00:46:10It's an accident.
00:46:12It's an accident.
00:46:14A fight.
00:46:16It's an accident. A terrible accident.
00:46:19Well, where is he?
00:46:22I mean...
00:46:26Marlon's dead.
00:46:30Dave...
00:46:32killed your brother.
00:46:45David, your wife's here.
00:46:48Thank you, Father.
00:47:15What can I say?
00:47:17I know.
00:47:19It was an accident.
00:47:22It was an accident, Eileen.
00:47:25If you can live with it.
00:47:28Now I must give myself up.
00:47:39Mr. Tayanika?
00:47:41You're under arrest.
00:47:43Come with me.
00:47:46Come on.
00:47:48Where are we going?
00:47:49Come on, let's go.
00:47:50Get in the truck.
00:47:57Here you go.
00:48:00Put on this tag.
00:48:02You put it in a buttonhole.
00:48:09Well, B-286-117.
00:48:12You're being moved into a world of red tape regulations and long lines.
00:48:20I'm sorry, sir, you...
00:48:22Get in the truck, will you?
00:48:35Okay, let's go.
00:48:42Let's go.
00:49:09Morning, Frank.
00:49:11You're up at night and bright and early.
00:49:13Oh, another roundup, Frank.
00:49:15I figured we'd try to get it done before everybody was moving around.
00:49:18Well, what'd they do this time?
00:49:20Seems like they gave some money to an outfit called the Black Dragon Society.
00:49:25I guess it's not a society a fellow wants to be anyway mixed up with.
00:49:42Well, I think you'd better set up a guard.
00:49:44Yes, sir.
00:49:49Sheriff, would you like to check your list against mine, sir?
00:49:51Oh, all right, Lieutenant. Let's see what we have.
00:49:54Mr. Sheriff.
00:49:56You listen.
00:49:58My son vote for you.
00:50:01I give money for fight Russia.
00:50:04Russia, not United States of America.
00:50:07I give money for fight Russia.
00:50:09Russia, not United States of America.
00:50:12We loyal.
00:50:14We all loyal to America.
00:50:19God bless America
00:50:23Land that I love
00:50:26Stand beside her and guide her
00:50:30Through the night with a light from above
00:50:34From the mountains to the prairies
00:50:39To the oceans where she's home
00:50:43God bless America
00:50:47Shut up!
00:50:49Shut up!
00:50:55My son was murdered.
00:50:57His killer's in there, Jack.
00:50:59You tell me not to start anything.
00:51:04Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm sorry. I can't let you see nobody.
00:51:07Husband! Husband!
00:51:09Ma'am, I'm sorry. I've got my order.
00:51:11Just close. Close.
00:51:12Please, I have my order.
00:51:14Corporal.
00:51:16Would you open that, please?
00:51:21Close. Husband.
00:51:22Yes, I understand.
00:51:29We can't be completely inhuman, Corporal.
00:51:35Adgero.
00:51:41English! English!
00:51:46Many of these men not say goodbye to families.
00:51:50You say goodbye.
00:51:52Hi.
00:51:55Hi.
00:51:58My heart goes with him.
00:52:05Adgero.
00:52:08Adgero.
00:52:18Lieutenant, it looks to me like you have the whole lot.
00:52:24Help!
00:52:34Help!
00:53:04I have studied the facts and re-studied the transcribed testimony.
00:53:10This tragedy is clearly accidental in self-defense
00:53:14and to all involved, I am sure, heartbreaking.
00:53:19Those close to the deceased will not find revenge in my decision.
00:53:25They must take solace in the unfortunate truth
00:53:29and seek whatever forgiveness can be found in their hearts.
00:53:35This court finds the defendant, David Tayanaka, not guilty.
00:53:49Adjourned.
00:53:59David...
00:54:01I hate to say this, but I strongly feel
00:54:06that it would be best for you to get out of here.
00:54:11I know all the words, David.
00:54:13Jigaboo, Slant-Eyed, Big...
00:54:17Dago, Pollock.
00:54:21And I have not yet been able to figure out who is better than who.
00:54:25So I'm not against you.
00:54:29Sure, all my life I've been an American.
00:54:31I don't want to become a you-people.
00:54:33Young fella...
00:54:37You are what people think you are today.
00:54:41Now, I don't know who it is, but there's somebody in this town
00:54:44that's going to take it into his head
00:54:46that he'll be helping the war effort by killing you.
00:54:49Could be Holland's old man
00:54:51or want to take a little crack at your hide.
00:54:53Point is, I just don't have enough help to watch out for you.
00:54:57I'd hate like the devil to stick you back into the hoose, Carl,
00:55:00just to protect you.
00:55:02I can trust him with this.
00:55:04This will lock up the man who committed the violence, not the victim.
00:55:06David...
00:55:10Boy, please don't jostle me.
00:55:12What do you think is going to happen to us, Sheriff?
00:55:14I don't know, David.
00:55:17I don't know.
00:55:19I only know there ain't one politician that's sticking up for you folks.
00:55:23Seems like your cause is not so dandy this election year.
00:55:27From what I understand, if the Japanese would pick up and go inside the state,
00:55:31why, they wouldn't have to move anymore.
00:55:33But here, right here, sitting beside the ocean, why...
00:55:37Looks like so long day is going to be sooner than later,
00:55:39and you've got to get going right now, boy.
00:55:41I mean, sooner than sooner.
00:55:44How about Bakersfield?
00:55:46Do you know anybody around there?
00:55:49Yeah, my father.
00:55:51My father.
00:56:13Come in, David, come in.
00:56:16You shouldn't be out after curfew.
00:56:18It's dangerous.
00:56:19I know, but...
00:56:21I know.
00:56:23I understand.
00:56:27I've been so lonely lately.
00:56:29Why don't I call Eileen, ask her to spend the night with me?
00:56:33You know, keep me company.
00:56:35Miss Kramer, I love you.
00:56:39Miss Kramer.
00:56:41I love you.
00:57:09It's morning.
00:57:11It's morning.
00:57:19Eileen.
00:57:33It's your father.
00:57:36David, let's tell him.
00:57:41I'm no longer a Japanese man to his daughter.
00:57:44Now I'm the killer.
00:57:53What's the matter, Daddy?
00:57:55Keep your voice down, Angel.
00:57:57I don't want to wake Miss Kramer.
00:57:59Okay.
00:58:02David, please.
00:58:04Angel.
00:58:06Eileen.
00:58:11Daddy, I have to talk to you. It's very important.
00:58:14We've got to hurry, honey.
00:58:16Look, tell me on the way down to the depot.
00:58:18I want you to drop me. Mother needs the car today.
00:58:20Daddy, I...
00:58:21Will you hurry up, Angel, please?
00:58:23I've got to meet the 620.
00:58:32Oh, honey, we've never been so close.
00:58:36Eileen.
00:58:38Two things you learn from the Japanese.
00:58:44Self-discipline.
00:58:48And patience.
00:58:51We haven't talked about anything.
00:58:54And we've talked about everything.
00:58:57Look.
00:59:00Mom's really worried about how Dad is.
00:59:02She thinks he needs more medicine.
00:59:04I'll try to see him.
00:59:06Some way, somehow.
00:59:08Then stop by Bakersfield to see about a job.
00:59:11Maybe going there is our answer.
00:59:14I'll be back.
00:59:17In two days.
00:59:19Two weeks.
00:59:22And I'll be back.
00:59:25And I'll be back.
00:59:29It was a beautiful night.
00:59:54No, no.
01:00:20No, no.
01:00:23You shouldn't be here.
01:00:25I thought you were dead.
01:00:36Anything else you need?
01:00:38No, nothing.
01:00:41Mom will be happy.
01:00:43You look fine.
01:00:47You too. You look fine.
01:00:53Is it true that there are some Japanese Americans here?
01:00:58They keep saying,
01:01:00I am American.
01:01:02I am American.
01:01:04I say, you American?
01:01:06Huh?
01:01:08She walk on caves.
01:01:12So no walk on ocean.
01:01:16But they forgot us.
01:01:18Not know what future holds.
01:01:21You go now.
01:01:23Take no chances.
01:01:34I never kissed my dad enough.
01:01:38Now I know it.
01:01:50Now I know it.
01:02:20Mrs. Kayanika.
01:02:26Since David couldn't be here,
01:02:28I made you something for Mother's Day.
01:02:39Relocation.
01:02:42To all those who are Japanese.
01:02:44To all those who are Japanese.
01:02:46To all those who are Japanese.
01:02:48To all those who are Japanese.
01:02:50We're of Japanese ancestry.
01:02:54My life.
01:02:56My home.
01:02:58My Hachiro and me.
01:03:00We make it since years back.
01:03:05First, my man.
01:03:09Who will tell us next what?
01:03:13I...
01:03:15I so afraid.
01:03:19I so afraid.
01:03:23Are you serious?
01:03:25Daddy, Hitler is doing exactly the same thing to the Jews.
01:03:28Now wait a minute.
01:03:30Many of these Japs want to go to those camps to prove their loyalty.
01:03:34Now that makes sense to me.
01:03:36You know, you're wrong, daughter.
01:03:38You're wrong.
01:03:40A Jap is a Jap and don't forget it.
01:03:42As a matter of fact, I was just reading in the paper here.
01:03:45General...
01:03:47Yes, here it is. General DeWitt.
01:03:49General DeWitt. Now he knows a little bit more about this than you or I.
01:03:52And he says that the Japanese race is an enemy race.
01:03:56Many second and third generation Japanese born on this soil possess U.S. citizenship.
01:04:04But, and get this.
01:04:06The racial strains are undiluted.
01:04:12That's very interesting.
01:04:14It's interesting and by God, it's the truth.
01:04:19But, suppose the strains were diluted. Would that make a difference?
01:04:24I mean, for instance, what if Harlan had married a Japanese American girl?
01:04:30No, not Japanese, a Jap.
01:04:33And there's no other way to say it, a Jap.
01:04:38All right, a Jap.
01:04:39What would it do?
01:04:41Probably kill your mother.
01:04:43Kill me.
01:04:44And you don't know it now, but it would kill you too.
01:04:47Let's not even talk about the children that might come out of such a marriage.
01:04:51It'd be a living hell.
01:04:53And as far as Harlan's concerned, he's better off where he is right now, dead.
01:04:59Than married to a Jap.
