The Black Vault

I watch it every year, usually on remembrance day. I missed it this year though, so I just watched it yesterday. The memorial day argument reminded me. One of the best movies made IMO, and still the only one that gets me teary eyed.

Even the new "Taken" movie, which was pretty emotionally powerful didn't make me teary eyed, despite it's very solumn and sobering content.

Should check out a movie called Saints and Soldiers.

I'll make a note too.

Yhe its a great move about Australian & British battles during world war one.

i rember when this movie came out all the news reports on t.v & magazines talking about how the USA has tryed to put itself in another famous war victory when the fact is the USA was not even there.

Just like other U.S made movies where there were NO Americans at the real event, because they were chicken shiit.

most of Americas war movies, the USA was not even at the battle in question.

It's just American propaganda & thievery.


The Great Escape ........ based on the events of Australian solders.

U-571 ....... U-571 purports to tell the story of how the USA recovered Germany's secret Enigma codes.

The USA was not even involved ........ it was all the British.


The USA is embarrassed by its inability to do anything in either world war & it thinks if it put out these movies the American people will belive the propaganda,
& belive the USA is a great nation, ( which we all know it aint ) its a 3erd world nation at best.

A bridge too far ftw

Hey rath, you do realize that the war had been going on for several years before America joined and once we joined the war it was over in a matter of months right?
Sure, the Brits recovered the Enigma, who translated it though.
Are you trying to say America didn't land at Normandy beach in 1944? Do you also deny the Holocaust. I mean, I have a deceased grandparent who fought in Northern Africa and stormed Normandy...

Also, solo'd Japan while fronting Europe. Yep, America was useless alright. I have some 70 year old men who'd kick you into Hiroshima for touting that spew.

P.S. D-Day was WW2

What? You didn't cry at "Ole Yeller"? Or "Where the red ferns grow"? Now those were tearjerkers.

Bambi > both of those. Combined.

A bridge too far is a great film.

Rath, it's WWII, on D-Day.

The Americans did make a landing in Normandy on D-day.

Nes-
Haven't seen either of them. My list of movies to watch are getting long...

I'll have to add "A Bridge too Far" also.

Bambi.

Fkn' Enemy At the Gates!

Can't believe I forgot that one.

Sure it's about dem damn Commies, but it's still a great movie.

Even better for Rath, no Americans in it at all!
