Pearl Harbor 珍珠港（2001） Movie Script

EXT. PACIFIC OCEAN - DAY A huge Japanese fleet steams toward Hawaii. It is an awesome sight. Carriers, battleships, destroyers, and entire battle group, traveling under complete radio silence, their hulls power through the waves. On the lower decks of the carriers are hundreds of planes -- fighters and bombers.

EXT. PEARL HARBOR - DAY The American ships are lined up at anchor, calm, placid.

EXT. BEACH - DAY The sailors and soldiers bask in the sun, play volleyball.

The aircraft carrier Lexington steams past toward the harbor entrance.

VOLLEYBALL PLAYER 1 Where's the Lexington going?

VOLLEYBALL PLAYER 2 Out on maneuvers, like the Enterprise.

EXT. GOLF COURSES - OAHU - DAY Men in military haircuts -- officers -- stroll the golf courses, enjoying themselves.

INT. DENTIST'S OFFICE - DAY The DENTIST, an ethnic Japanese, is working on a patient with his mouth agape. The DENTIST ASSISTANT intrudes.

DENTAL ASSISTANT Dr. Takanawa, you have a call from Tokyo.

DENTIST:

Please excuse me. Just relax.

Leaving his patient with a mouth full of instruments, the Dentist moves to his outer office, which looks directly out over Pearl Harbor. He speaks in Japanese.

DENTIST:

Takanawa... Yes?... He seems confused by the call, but he responds by looking out over the harbor, then saying into the receiver --

DENTIST:

Yes, they are all...no wait, I see the big one moving. The one that's flat on top, what do they call it?... INT. SURVEILLANCE BASE - DAY Some tired Army Intelligence types -- A LISTENER, a TRACKER, and an INTELLIGENCE SUPERVISOR, are sitting at a bank of phones. The LISTENER is a Japanese-American.

LISTENER:

Here's something, over the line from Tokyo.

He switches on the recording equipment and looks to the TRACER, sitting at a battery of equipment.

TRACER:

It's connected to a local dentist. His office is beside Pearl Harbor.

INTELLIGENCE SUPERVISOR This dentist, is he a spy?

LISTENER:

Sounds too innocent. His accent is from the old country. Somebody official- sounding calls, he thinks it's discourteous not to respond.

INT. BARBER SHOP - DAY Admiral Kimmel is settling into the barber chair when his AIDE enters and nods for the barber to move a few paces away, so that he can speak privately.

AIDE:

Sir, we just had an intelligence intercept. Someone from Tokyo called a local dentist whose office looks over Pearl. They wanted to know the exact location of the ships.

ADMIRAL KIMMEL:

Someone from Tokyo asks a dentist how the ships are sitting... What are we supposed to do about that?

AIDE:

I...don't know, Sir. But it just seemed significant.

ADMIRAL KIMMEL:

Have intelligence keep monitoring him.
让情报部门继续监视他。

The Admiral sinks back into the chair.

EXT. MILITARY BASE HOSPITAL - DAY A young amateur PHOTOGRAPHER, about 16, wearing a hat with "PICTURES OF PARADISE" printed on it's crown is ready to snap a shot of Evelyn and her nurse friends having a picnic lunch on the lawn outside the hospital.
