Laurence Olivier narrates the acclaimed documentary series telling the story of World War II. The Japanese, at war on the Chinese mainland since 1931, hope for quick victories over the British and the Dutch, but 7 December 1941 brings the infamous attack on Pearl Harbor, and the start of an all-conquering sweep throughout Southeast Asia culminating in the taking of Singapore.
