A note on criticisms
Surprised to find criticism here. This is a film for grown ups. Its about infantrymen, you know, the bulk of the troops in contact with the enemy. Watching other films you might be tempted to think that only Paratroopers and Rangers did any fighting, being made up of highly motivated men with a higher purpose on heroic missions. I note criticism that the cynical nonconformist type should not appear until Vietnam films. I would suggest that a very high proportion of those in combat in WWII also didn’t want to be there – my father landed on Sword beach on D-Day and certainly would rather have been somewhere else. We can still respect their sacrifice even though they only wanted to survive, because we are grown up. We don’t need a film packed full of sentimentality, directors manipulation and musical cues telling us what emotions to feel… and as to complaining about the plot, how do you defend the absolutely contrived plot of that other film I haven’t named (but you can guess which one I mean). See this film. Rant over.

One of the Better WW2 Films; When Trumpets Fade
Writer Voght and director Irvin did a great job on this film, along with everyone associated with the production values. Ron Eldard does a great job in the lead role as well. But the story is not just about him; it is about the absurdity and waste of war. There were heroes on both sides in this conflict; A German doctor who saved many American lives, and the Americans depicted in the film on the front lines. The film is not for the weak-kneed. My father was in this theater of war from England to D-Day to Paris to Western Belgium. He only used the terms “Tough and really tough” to describe his situation. He never told me the details. He said that dry socks were more valuable than booze or chocolate. Great filmmaking.
