I saw Allegiance the first time it was released to theatres. Such a powerful movie. There was humor, beautiful songs, and I cried more than a few tears. Allegiance portrays so many aspects of what happened to Japanese-Americans during World War II that we never learned about in school. It should become a unit of study in American History in every school. I'm extremely glad George decided to bring Allegiance to life. Society must learns from horrible actions like these or they will happen again in subsequent generations.
