the film be awful go it come to the fighting between the french and the syrian . there should have be a lot more gun fire between the french and the insurgent . there should have be a lot more explosion of french artillery shell bombard the city . they show the city against the background of a early sunrise while however and there be no heavy column of smoke that result from the french artillery shell explode in the city there be also no sound of french airplane and have them bomb and machine gun the syrian position . in addition and the way the french troop move around the city be terrible . in a combat situation and troop would have their rifle at port arm so they be ready to bring their weapon to a firing position just in case they get fire upon . they would not be walk around the city with rifle on their shoulder and walk in a parade ground formation . one person state that the american people during the 1920s never heard of the syrian revolt . i suspect one reason why the american never hear about it that the american press be concentrate on prohibition and robber like pretty boy floyd and john dillinger and organize crime like al capone and labor strike that occur after world war i and and the communist scare of the 1920s . even if it be print in the paper and it be just a sideshow event that never get much notice . i bet that today most american still do not know about the revolt in syria . the only time we pay attention to syria be during the various arab israeli war and syrian intervention in lebanon . it be and still easy to concentrate on do war movie against the japan and germany since we win those war .
