The film is based on a fictional history behind the Tanaka Memorial document. The film won the Academy Award for Best Art Direction for a Black & White (Wiard Ihnen, A. Roland Fields) film in 1945.\n\nNick Condon (James Cagney) is a journalist for the Tokyo Chronicle. He prints a story disclosing Japan's plan to conquer the world. The newspaper is seized by Japanese officers. Condon gets the Tanaka Plan, a paper in which all the plans are described. The Japanese spies who follow him think that Ollie and Edith Miller (Wallace Ford and Rosemary DeCamp) are the ones who discovered the plan because they suddenly have a lot of money and are coming back to the USA. When Condon goes to the ship to bid them farewell, he finds Edith dead. He can only see a woman's hand with a ring with a huge ruby. Back home, he finds Ollie, in terrible condition. He gets from Ollie the Tanaka plan.\n\nPremier Giichi Tanaka (John Emery) wants his plans to remain secret, and sends Col. Hideki Tojo (Robert Armstrong) Capt. Oshima (John Halloran) and Hijikata (Leonard Strong) to follow him everywhere. Condon loses the document with the Tanaka plan. Ollie's disappeared, and the police arrest them in terms of scandal and much noise while having a party with two girls in his apartment, which is a complete lie.\n\nCondon meets Iris Hilliard (Sylvia Sidney), half American and half Chinese. At first, he suspects her of being the lady in the ship, then he doesn't. They fall in love. She seems to be betraying him, especially when Condon sees the ring with the ruby in her hand.\n\nAt the end, it turns out she's been sent by a politician who wants peace and was present when the Tanaka plan was devised. Condon leaves his job after ten days. When he's about to leave Japan, he meets the politician and Iris in the harbour. The politician signs the document to prove it's real. They are discovered by the Japanese army.\n\nIris runs away with the document in a cargo ship which will take her out of Japan. To distract the Japanese officers, Condon fights his greatest enemy and tries to reach the American Embassy. He's shot at by spies dressed in street clothes, but he's not killed. The consular adviser goes out of the Embassy and takes Condon inside still alive, and the Japanese officers can't prevent it, because they couldn't find the Tanaka document when registering Condon.\n\n----\n\nDirected by Frank Lloyd, produced by William Cagney, written by Garrett Fort and Lester Cole, starring James Cagney, Sylvia Sidney and Porter Hall.\n\n---\n\nSource: \"Blood on the Sun\" Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia.

This restored and colorized edition revives one of the most politically charged and historically significant films of World War II–era Hollywood. Combining thrilling espionage, bold propaganda, and Cagney’s trademark intensity, the film dramatizes Japan’s militarist expansion plans leading up to World War II. By restoring this film in color, we present a vital piece of cinema history to audiences in the United States, Europe, and beyond, ensuring its relevance to modern viewers while preserving its Golden Age power.\n\nPlot Summary:\nThe story is set in Tokyo during the turbulent years before Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor. Nick Condon (James Cagney), an American journalist stationed in Japan, uncovers the existence of the Tanaka Memorial, a secret imperialist document outlining Japan’s blueprint for global conquest. His discovery places him in grave danger, as Japanese secret police and high-ranking officials will stop at nothing to silence him.\n\nCondon becomes entangled with Iris Hilliard (Sylvia Sidney), a beautiful and mysterious woman whose loyalties remain unclear. As he digs deeper into the conspiracy, he faces betrayal, violence, and constant pursuit through Tokyo’s shadowy underworld. With sharp dialogue and unrelenting tension, the film builds to an explosive finale where courage, integrity, and sacrifice define Condon’s struggle against oppression.\n\nCast and Crew:\n• Director: Frank Lloyd\n• Producers: William Cagney, Jack Warner\n• Screenplay: Lester Cole, Nathaniel Curtis\n• Story: Lester Cole\n• Cinematography: Theodor Sparkuhl\n• Music: Miklós Rózsa\n\nStarring:\n• James Cagney as Nick Condon\n• Sylvia Sidney as Iris Hilliard\n• Porter Hall as Arthur Bickett\n• John Emery as Baron Tanaka\n• Wallace Ford as Ollie Miller\n• Rosemary DeCamp as Edith Miller\n• Robert Armstrong as Capt. Oshima\n• Marvin Miller as Hijikata\n• Hugh Beaumont as Johnny Clarke\n\nFilm Significance:\n“Blood on the Sun” was released in 1945, the same year World War II ended, making it a direct product of its time. With its portrayal of Japanese militarism, it functioned both as entertainment and as wartime propaganda, reflecting America’s anxieties about global conflict. The film is notable for its strong anti-fascist themes, its use of political intrigue, and its sharp dialogue, which combined to reinforce Hollywood’s wartime messaging.\n\nJames Cagney, already one of Hollywood’s top stars, gives a fiery and determined performance as the heroic journalist who risks everything to expose the truth. His blend of toughness and moral clarity made the role iconic. Sylvia Sidney adds emotional depth as Iris, a woman caught between loyalty and survival. Supported by Miklós Rózsa’s atmospheric score, the film offers both thrills and substance. In 1946, it won the Academy Award for Best Art Direction (Black and White), solidifying its place in cinema history.\n\nEnhanced Public Domain Explanation:\nThis film is in the public domain, which means it is completely free of copyright restrictions and can be legally shared, viewed, studied, and preserved without limitation.
