Historical movies should reflect history as it was.
Historical Accuracy is out the window. Today they’d probably cast Steve McQueen’s character in The Great Escape as a Japanese lesbian.
“Historical movies should reflect history as it was.”
Agreed. It shouldn’t even be a question or issue.
Yet, I doubt this movie reflects history other than Dunkirk did happen.
There was a movie named “ZULU”, telling of the total defeat of a British column marching into “ZuluLand” in Africa.
100% of the victorious warriors were “of color”.
100% of the dead losers were WHITE.
I recall not a single protest of the segregating of roles.
Historical accuracy is what counted.
I agree.
blacks dominate in sports....funny how race never seems to be an issue as long as blacks dominate in it, and whites have no problem with it at all...
but the beaches of Dunkirk were for all practical purposes, white young men....
Exactly. I turned off the movie about the USS Indianapolis after about 30 minutes because they were showing blacks doing things they did not do in actual wartime.
But, that was a black director (and a merely mediocre actor) giving his black son a starring role. Yawn.
