- The Battle of Hong Kong (film)
"The Battle of Hong Kong" (Chinese: 香港攻略), also known as "The Day England Fell", is the sole film made in Hong Kong during the Japanese Occupation from 1941 to 1945. [" [http://www.lcsd.gov.hk/CE/CulturalService/HKFA/english/publication/pub02_preface.html Hong Kong Filmography Volume II (1942-1949)] ." "Hong Kong Film Archive". Accessed 15 July 2008.] The 1942 film was produced by the Japanese Dai Nippon Film Company, was directed by Shigeo Tanaka and featured an all-Japanese cast, but some Hong Kong film personalities were also involved in its making. [Evans, Alun. "Brassey's Guide to War Films." 2000.

The Japanese used the film to spread anti-British propaganda; the film portrays the British as having brutal and racist attitudes while in Hong Kong. [Taylor, Philip M.
