Elliott Jr , who has died , aged 85 , gave the unnoticed warning about aircraft coming near Pearl Harbour , in 1941 , as described in history books and movies like “Tora , Tora , Tora . Elliott died on Saturday of complications from a stroke,his family said . The former Army radar operator detected incoming Japanese aircraft on December 7, 1941. He then gave a warning , but it was brushed aside. Nearly an hour later , the enemy planes reached the US Navy’s fleet in the harbour . In a 50-year anniversarystory , a reporter from the US’s Associated Press told how Elliott and another soldier , Joseph L. Lockard ,had been on duty that day since 4 am at Kahuku Point on the northern tip of Oahu Island , Hawaii . They had been familiarizing themselves with a strange new invention that could “see 130 miles out to sea -something called “radar . Just after 7 am , Elliott saw “something completely out of the ordinary on the screen , a huge blip , due north , 137 miles out . The information was called in to headquarters , and the operators were told it was a flight of B-17 Flying Fortresses due in from California . They kept tracking for practice , and the blip grew so large that Lockard figured the set was broken . They turned it off at 7:45 , after the blip disappeared behind Oahu’s mountains . About 10 minutes later , the first bombs were falling on the battleships in the harbour . Later that morning , when Elliott and Lockard arrived back at their base , they learned the significance of what they had observed . Elliott served in the Army until 1945 , and then worked for New Jersey Bell Telephone for 33 years before retiring . In later years , his warning at Pearl Harbour brought him reward . The actions of the radar operators were described in the 1970 movie “Tora , Tora , Tora, and on television specials and in history books .
Personally,I like Chinese New Year's moviesvery much．Because they are filled with joyousthemes．and this kind ofmovie is a good choice for people who finally finish a year'shard work and wish to add some refreshment to their new year．
And it proved to be true that Chinese New Year's movies are in need,for they were well received by common people inthe late 1990s．However,after less than 10．years of flourishing,they are now facing a great decline in box office income．
I think the failure of Chinese New Year's movies is for two main reasons:lack of creation and low quality of produetion．
Audiences are not fools．They watch movies in order to get satisfaction,bappiness and enlightenment（启发）not to be tricked by meaningless,same stories．If a movie tell aboring story,how can filmakers expect applause（鼓掌）fromthe audience．
And at the same time we hope that directors choose actors and actresses carefully．The success of a movie is mostlydetermined by a fine story and good performances．If performers aren't able to communicate a character's emotions exactlv,no matter how wonderful a story is,the movie may be afailure．So a popular New Year's movie ought to be creativeand elaborately（精心地）produced．
My favoufite Chinese New Year's movie is“Be There orBe Square”(Bu Jian Bu San),directed by Feng Xiaogang．It's a story about love and life．The hero is a Chinese man who struggles hard in the US．One day,he meets a girl from Beijing．The two share the same goal:making their fortunes in America．After a series of ups and downs,they fail to realizetheir dreams．But,they finally fall in love with each other and decide to go back to China to make a brand new start．
Feng is good at providing humorous and simple lines with deep and strongly felt meaning．As far as the andience is concerned,it was acceptable and interesting．And the leading ac-tor and actress showed superior performances．They coopera-ted so well and acted so naturally that it seemed they were truly a pair of lovers．
From the simple but moving story,I got a lot．Besides money and fame,there are many other beautiful things worth pursuing（追求）and loving．
Good stories and actors are what the audience desire．Whether Chinese New Year's movies will last in the New Year's film market depends mostly on the filmmakers'attitude towards movie production．I hope that in the coming new year．I can spend several hours in a cinema enjoying a good movie instead of just chatting with my friends to escape a boring movie．
