Home Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I loved 'thin red line' and grass is typical of uplands in the SWPArea

very high grass mind, and full of typhus carrying mites.

Trite is not a word I'd use of that film.

I often find that my responses to war films, war series on TV, and etc are very different to most of the views expressed here.

I'm keen for war films to do two things, conveying the sheer horror and hammering noise, of battle, even a minor 'contact'. And confronting us with why we are so gutless as to not put a stop to it.

One son got me a local codec version of Band of Brothers for Xmas this year, and it is bloody marvellous to have all the episodes on working CD's.

So here's a quetion for all the murrikens here,

was anyone, anyone at all, disciplined properly for the failure to properly supply your own 101st Airborne at it's 'low anyway' level before sending it to the Bulge?

If not, here is a challenge for one of you, do the work of research and name some bloody names, and get it published. I'd be willing to bet more than half of those fingered will be privileged / preppy types!
