Saw it yesterday. Great movie, very inspiring. How could I ever bellyache about anything ever again. Great movie for young people. The greatest generation endured so much and now we wind up with people who pull a gun because their cheeseburger wasn’t in the bag. Imagine what the WWII survivors must think of today’s society.

I just finished the book today and will be seeing it this afternoon. I hope the movie does the book justice. The things that he and the other prisoners had to endure is beyond imagination.

I’m reading the book and just got to chapter 34. I saw Franklin Graham on Greta last night and got the impression that the movie ends when he comes home. Graham said that there’s a documentary that covers his conversion, work with Billy Graham and then his work with troubled youth. That’s the movie I want to see.
