I know the story (I read the chapters from the book) and would like to see a good rendition. However, I am completely insecure about trying it. American war movies generally disgust me. They tend to range from idiotic and silly to revolting, with the latest gems like SPR, U-571 and Pearl Harbor being prime example of just how low that genre has become here. So I am extremely reluctant to try another one.Since you are recommending it I might give it a try - when my wife is out of town - on a large screen with all channels going. I am not against giving credit when it is due. And I would not mind to be positively surprised.
