Your comment is appreciated and reflects well on yourself. Other comments seen here seem to be generated by spiteful souls who haunt FR like a bar for bikers.

"They could have sent any one of a million men—but they sent the corporal to go save his brother."

Although I liked the movie, why couldn't they have used one of the obviously functional airplanes to drop a message to the commander of the attacking regiment?

I guess that would have been too easy.

Well, there are three cats.
Some mama stray gave birth to them up under
our woodpile about 3 years ago.
As soon as she had them weaned, she disappeared.
So the 3 kittens decided they belonged to us.

They are outdoor cats that we have tried to socialize.
There are two tabbys and one solid black.
they sometimes tolerate me and Mrs. 17, but mostly not.

Maybe I should start a thread?

Back to the future?

I had to slice the Italian bread to make garlic bread.

Watched “All quiet on the Western Front” a few days ago, WW1 from a German point of view.

Or maybe a thread about something stupid one of my cats did today.

That would have been much more informative and important than a silly thread like this.

LOL, don't we have a Freeper here named Richard Kimball?

That concept of watching something with interest, then concern, then alarm, then outright panic...

Like Harrison Ford's character being chased down that hill by that train!

Do they have a sequel call about the Spanish Flu called 1918?

The original or the one with "John Boy" in it?

This got moved to General/Chat? No big deal.

Sigh. Doesn’t take much to set folks off these days, give em a break. Stress.

This is a small thing for sure, there are things that really piss me off, like a $2 trillion pork package, but different things get different people at different times.

I thought it was a fairly taut movie. I understand the criticisms about things such as “why didn’t they fly a plane over and drop a note” but...I just look at it as a movie, not history.

I would watch it again, and I did find the unique shooting method interesting.
