Hi all.
I have just came back from an extended hollyday on the beach and while there i happened to see for the first time a movie
called "Blood on the Sun" starring James Cagney and Sylvia Sydney. Well, the fact is that i was amazed for the quality of the Judo displayed on the film! I believe that it is the best action film that uses Judo that i have ever saw (although unfortunetely they use that ridiculous "judo chop" quite some times). Since it was shot in 1943 (describing fictional facts that took place a little before the war broke) i am sure that none of the Judoka that apeared on the movie were Japanese, not only the one who doubled for Cagney, never showing his face when in Judo Action, but the ones that appear in the, lets say, "Kodokan" , in the beggining of the movie. The question is, do you know who they are? Joe?
