War movie editing errors
Isn't it because this whole movie was one big error? ;) -
War movie editing errors
In many war movies from the 60s, 70s and even 80s war was a blodless affair. No blod was spilled in The Longest Day or The Riwer Kwai. People get short and they just fall and roll around a little - no blod. Nice and clean. -
War movie editing errors
In Battle of Britain - a masterpiece back then and even today - the same german Heinkel pilot dies several times. And most of the female actors and extras have 60's hairstyle. But I still love it!!! :) -

War interest but never served
My interest in Battle of Britain has absolutely nothing to do with the 14 months I wasted in the Signal Regiment, Danish Royal Army :) -

The Pacific
So sorry - the Pacific never grabbed me like Band of Brothers did. Just could not get into it. A lot of soldiers - looking the same - shooting at each other...in the dark! Not my kind of story. -

Tattoos.
Don't care too much for tattos myself, but I must say that this young man - a grandson of a famous pilot from Battle of Britain (Albert "Zulu" Lewis) - has a special tribute to his granddad, by having his plane on his arm. And a nice piece of art too - with the poppies and clouds.- Spitfire

ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets
If he hasn't given it away, my father might still have one of the early ALC Irvins from the seventies - I bought it for myself, and passed it on to him later on. I will check it out next time we are together. And maybe post some pics.- Spitfire

Reenacting @ 10,000 Feet
I think that's the reason why the uniforms did not come out of the rucksacks before very near to the top. When chances of bumping into a french policeman - or other people for that matter - was almost zero. :) -
Reenacting @ 10,000 Feet

Oscars 2011
In Denmark we are quite pleased :) And so is Sweden - they think it's a swedish movie, 'cause the leading male role is played by a swedish actor. Oh well - success has many fathers. lol- Spitfire

ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets
Read something on the VLJ forum on how to get new, thick - almost standing - lambswool in repro Irvins to get a more original - flat, curly - look: Soak it and let it dry in the sun. Anybody ever tried that? My Aero Irvin still has very thick fleece - and I would like it to be more flat and...- Spitfire
