TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Most of the young cast knew nothing about the incidents on Iwo Jima, as it is not taught in Japanese schools.

Shot back-to-back with Flags of Our Fathers (2006).

Ken Watanabe read actual letters sent by Imperial Japanese Army General Tadamichi Kuribayashi to his family from Iwo Jima while preparing for his role.

When word spread that Ken Watanabe had been cast in the lead, virtually every young actor in Japan let it be known that they were interested in working on this movie.

The original plan was to tell both sides of the story in one movie. As production developed, it became obvious that there was too much to tell, and that the two separate cultures created very different storylines.

Popular Dialogues

"Baron Nishi: [reading the letter from the mother of Sam, the dead marine] Remember what I said to you: always do what's right because it is right."

"General Tadamichi Kuribayashi: I will always be in front of you."
