Richard Fleischer's next movie would be one of his biggest, as he undertook the Would War II movie, Tora! Tora! Tora!. Fleischer would be responsible for the U.S. half of the production, leaving Kinji Fukasaku in charge of the Japanese half of the movie. Again, Fleischer's film came to be one of the defining movies of the World War II movie genre. He went on to make Soylent Green, one of the few movies he would make dealing with capital punishment.
