Yep, the makers of the film deserve all the plaudits going. A thoroughly entertaining spectacle.
I wonder if Aldo enjoyed it?

Yes defo a different way of filming .
Dunkirk was also a film I thought WTF at the beginning then a few mins in I thought very clever
In my opinion, Dunkirk and 1917 have deservedly entered the canon of great war films.Yes defo a different way of filming .

No, it's not on Netflix yet. I watched it on DVD.
It's about two young British soldiers who must race against time to get a vital message to the front line. If they fail their mission, hundreds will needlessly die.
It truly is a magnificent film. And there's not a single Yank in sight. Bonus.
I assume they succeeded and hundreds didn’t needlessly die? But the next day, and the day after that, thousands did needlessly die?
Probably shouldn’t have bothered tbh.
War movies tend to depict the battles a nation wins—not the ones it loses. So with a blockbuster Hollywood movie on Dunkirk hitting the silver screen this July, one would think that Dunkirk was a British victory.
In fact, Dunkirk was the climactic moment of one of the greatest military disasters in history. From May 26 to June 4, 1940, an army of more than three hundred thousand British soldiers was chased off the mainland of Europe, reduced to an exhausted mob clinging to a flotilla of rescue boats while leaving almost all of their weapons and equipment behind.
just shows how fake the perception of history some have from hollywood movies, 100% fake trash propaganda

3 hour queue for ikea lol
we need nuked
I do like an Ikea meatball but get to f.uck standing in a queue that long. Who needs a Shpunke Wajina chest of drawers that badly that they'd tolerate this lunacy?
Sadly, I found a dead pigeon in the garden this morning. I buried it with full honours.
Catch ya later.

The Ger.ans where astonished at the amount of weapons and arsenal that was just abandoned by the british and French forces .War movies tend to depict the battles a nation wins—not the ones it loses.

To the point of envy .
The cabinet meeting about the evacuation estimated that they would only get 30, 000 troops back .

@Ponders Revisited you will be disappointed that the Whit Friday Brass Bands Parade has been cancelled this year?
That is a crying shame, Monny. You'll just have to mothball your euphonium for a year. Either that or treat your neighbours to a solo recital.
Let me know what you decide.
