Good old Turner Class Movies!
It has always bothered me that in Command Decision they have a model of an Me-262 German Jet Fighter made up, but in the film they call it a "Landswolf" something or other!
Otherwise, a great film with excellent writing and acting all the way around.
I fear some of the dialog may show how things are to some in the future in stopping Iran getting nuclear weapons. Below, think nObama for Kane and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs for Dennis:
Maj. Gen. Roland Goodlaw Kane: Casey, this may pull down the work of twenty years. All right, let's have it.
Brig. Gen. K.C. 'Casey' Dennis: The day after you left, sir, weather conference gave us a clear break over Central and Northeast Germany 44 days running. There was a chance to do the job, possibly the last one, so I laid on 'Stitch.'
Maj. Gen. Roland Goodlaw Kane: Regardless of the fact that you might be upsetting the larger picture .
Brig. Gen. K.C. 'Casey' Dennis: Larger than what, sir? The outcome of the war?
Great critique and synopsis.
The misnaming of the ME-262 reminds me of the scene in “In Harm’s Way” when Hugh O’Brian ran that beautiful ‘40 Lincoln Continental convertible over the cliff where it turned into a ‘41 Ford convertible as it crashed and burned. ;)
I have the DVD of Command Decision.
