Red tails, new movie

[SeriousStudent]

Agreed. The first movie was pretty well done.

My vote for a movie along the same theme would be for the first black airborne unit in WWII, the Triple Nickles, 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion.

I had never heard of them, until I read about them here. I agree with Roger, that would make an excellent film. And there is certainly no shortage of fine young Soldiers today, who could play a role on the screen.

My daughter is enlisting in the Army, and is devouring all she can find of its history. We are going to see what we can find on them.

I look forward to more WW2 films. The technology we have toady will give today's filmmakers the ability to tell stories in ways that could not be imagined in times contemporaneous with the events.

However, I do fear that the stories will be lost in the quest for a bigger "AHHHHHHH."
