Thanks, maybe I will try to watch the movie.
I meant the 1930 movie, which is not silent. I've got it on DVD and have seen it many times. I've also got the book. The movie is quite similar to the book and doesn't divert from the story line like modern movies usually do. I'm quite a fan of it which is why I was hesitant to watch the modern remake.

Just started watching the much-talked-about Happy Valley, filmed in my West Yorkshire homeland. It's very dark.

Marcel, watched a Dutch film "The Forgotten Battle" (The Scheld). I was impressed. Know the Cdns role in that slog.

All Quiet on the Western Front
Watched the new version on Netflix, which seems to have little to do with the plot of the book (other than the character names) but is a GREAT WWI movie, absolutely awesome. The scene where they take the French trench, start gobbling down warm rations and stop when the earth starts to tremble. Totally awesome scene.
Then watched (on DVD) the 1930 version, had forgotten how gritty and real it was, especially for 1930. I recommend both versions, although perhaps not back to back like I did, you might get a tad depressed...

I've watched it three of four times now. Harrowing.

Agreed. It is different from the 1930 version, but so well done.
Yeah it's excellent.
Watched this today which is also good.

Well, I just did a triple movie set.
1) Pearl Harbor (yes I know the drama and sadly overdone dialogue kinda sucked, but fast forward to the battle scenes and they are pretty good)
2) Battle of Britain. I love the dogfight scenes.
3) Memphis Belle. I it's not too bad and some interesting fuselage interior scenes along with the obligatory "actual" bombing scenes from arrival footage film bombing runs that most have seen many times.
No matter what, they were all entertaining.

Complete the saga by watching "The War Lover" with Steve McQueen.

I'd love to, but I can't find. If it's streaming, it's one I don't have, and my Blu-ray is giving me some issues. I'll see about finding the doc somewhere. Thanks for the tip tho.

Agreed, good movie but for some reason just wasn't my cup of gin, I like a lot of Steve McQueen's movies but that one was a one and done for me. Can't put my finger on why I don't like it more because it's an excellent film.

McQueen played a rotten SOB, an unlikable character through & through. The scenes in the B-17 returning to England, shot up and losing altitude come off as very realistic to me. After all, in a movie, how many times have you ever seen a crew test-firing their guns on the way to a bombing mission?

I remember seeing that on 12 O'clock High. Possibly the movie but definitely the TV show.
last of us episodes 4 to 7, enjoying it so far
