Enlisting all MOFO movie buffs

This is driving me absolutely insane. There was a movie made, seemed to be around the 70's. It was about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It had a similar feel to Tora Tora Tora, in that it presented the subject from both American and Japanese perspectives. Someone please give me the title of this movie.

Midway?

Midway (1976)

The Battle of Midway was June of '42. We bombed Hiroshima & Nagasaki in August of '45.

There's an old b&w film about Tibbets (mostly) called "Above & Beyond" but I think that's from the 50's or early 60's.

The only other one I can think of is Paul Newman's "Fat Man & Little Boy" from the late 80's and that certainly wasn't "Tora Tora Tora" like.
