Movies and Films
This is the forum for Movie and Film discussions. Again, our topic is naval warfare in WWII for the most part.

<HTML>Hello,
I haven\'t seen this film yet, but I\'m reliably told by fellow Brits and many American reviewers the internet over that it\'s got more ham in it than a butcher\'s shop!
Someone told me that one of our white teethed heroes goes to the U.K., presumably to show us poor old Brits how to fight the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, or should that be renamed the Battle of Affleck :-) !
Seriously, could anyone give me a detailed description of any scenes containing our hero Affleck in the U.K., flying in the R.A.F.? Just so I can get an idea of what is shown of the european war in this film, without having to pay to see it at the cinema!
By the way, what\'s this I hear about Affleck climbing out of an aeroplane and seeing a coffin? I\'ve been told this scene is right at the end. Could anyone describe this also?
