I have not watched this yet but have heard about it. Sounds like here he gets into some of the ugly truth about WWII. I am posting in case anyone out there wants to watch it and comment on it before I have a chance.
UPDATE: So I watched this finally. It is actually just a fairly straight-forward overview of WWII. Nothing particularly controversial or deep here. It is good info, and a great synopsis of WWII. But nothing at all surprising or conspiracy-ish, sadly.
We must be cautious about the gatekeeping Mr. Stone. Remember who financed his (Mossad-avoiding) JFK movie, and remember Stone's ineffectual (OCT-supporting) 9/11 movie.
ReplyDeleteoh no doubt! But still, he touches on some taboo topics here, such as how dropping the atomic bombs on japan were totally unnecessary even from a military standpoint.

ReplyDeleteThis is a powerful piece of work, for which Mr. Stone deserves to be very, very proud, and we should feel indebted to him.
Stone is quite obviously highly intelligent, has a fine, calm demeanor, and has given us a very interesting film.
Not exactly a H. Zinnian approach to history, but it's just as valuable.
All should watch this, all will profit from having done so.
What a crock. Are Yanks too stupid to exist?
ReplyDeleteWhat exactly is a crock, Mr Incoming!!!!!!!?
