Godzilla, the genesis
The birth of Godzilla dates back to 1954; Tomoyuki Tanaka, producer of Toho (film and television production house that in the future will give us jewels such as The 7 Samurai by Akira Kurosawa, Megaloman, The Enchanted City, Howl's Moving Castle, My Neighbor Totoro and many many others) is in flight over the Pacific over the Bikini Atoll, the place where the Americans carried out nuclear tests for the development of atomic bombs. Fascinated by "The Awakening of the Dinosaur" film with special effects by the master of animation Ray Harryhausen, in which an ancient reptile from the North Pole is awakened by the explosion of an atomic device, he decides to produce a film starring a giant monster and destroyer, generated precisely by the reckless use of nuclear power. We are in 54 and the wound inflicted on Japan by the atomic bomb is still open and painful.Waiting for the anime pre-ordered on Amazon Godzilla Vs. Kong STEELBOOK 4K UHD.
