Not yet.
Read portions of the story behind it.
Reading on the side, the Olympic athlete featured in the events portrayed passed away last year on July 2.
I wonder how close they stuck to the material and facts.
Directed by Angelina Jolie, so I will have to lean on someone else for info on it later.

Audio on the book & saw movie.
Will read book still.

Was worried that Jolie would be too light weight
on Japanese behavior with prisoners. Seemed fair.
Movie was light weight on the spiritual aspect which
was big in book and reality. I have researched and
written about POWS at a particular Japanese camp
so the Louie Zamperini story was great to me.

Re: #27/#35 (or whatever your reference posts were)
Not really relevant to my point about conservative
Californians. We can each cite posts of others but
will continue to talk past each other.

How do you know I don’t have the same thing going
on with 2 or 3 other posters?
