ABC (720p) presents its Saturday Movie of the Week Pearl Harbor at 8 p.m.

Pearl Harbor is a classic tail of romance set during a war that complicates everything. It all starts when childhood friends Rafe and Danny become Navy pilots and meet Evelyn a Navy nurse. Rafe falls head over heels and next thing you know Evelyn and Rafe are hooking up. Then Rafe volunteers to go fight in Britan and Evelyn and Danny get transfered to Pearl Harbor. And while Rafe is off fighting everything gets completely whack and next thing you know everybody is in the middle of an air raid we now know as "Pearl Harbor."

Pearl Harbor (8-11 p.m., 6ABC) - Did you watch Titanic just to see the boat sink, and ignore the sappy love story? Consider taking the same approach to this 2001 drama. Director Michael Bay's re-creation of the 1941 Japanese attack on the Hawaiian military base is some of the most effective war-movie footage since Saving Private Ryan. Just pay no attention to the S.L.S. about two pilots (Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett) in love with the same woman (Kate Beckinsale).
