Good point. Band of Brothers was better than anything else that's ever been done before. It was not about The Battle of the Bulge, however; it was about a particular company of the 101st Airborne for the duration of the war, including The Bulge.

I was thinking more along the lines of The Longest Day. Hollywood doesn't (normally) do stuff like that any more in these PC times, though, so I suppose I'll have to settle for some of the history written by Ambrose and others.

My idea for a movie? "To Save Bastogne", based on the book by the same name by Robert Phillips, about the delaying action by the 28th and other divisions that made it possible for the 101st to make it into Bastogne in time to defend it as the krauts were advancing from the east.

That's JMHO, of course.

But there was one episode devoted to Bastogne - told from the medic's point of view.
