this be a beautifully make film and finely balance the fragile human story ( both before and after 1945 ) and the indiscriminating combat of war . the use of outtake from battle of britain ( a film that do not nearly so well portray the 1940s . ) enhances and rather than detracts from the whole . a deeply impressive work and this live in my memory for the 2 year since i saw it and and i have just buy it to explore the making of extra . i highly recommend this film ( movie ) . like ace high and it alternate between viscerally excite ( or scary ) air combat sequence and where the viewer might experience actual loss of character they would come to care about and but also unpredictable interaction on the ground and where skillful writer and real life experience inform some involve and move event . this also underline the fact that for many people and 1945 mark not just the end of one conflict but the beginning of another and and even today we still do not recognise the loss and bravery and sacrifice of so many nameless hero and or even bad we venerate them from a distance without allow them to be human being with all the emotional weakness that entail make their sacrifice all the more valiant . watch this movie be an experience which will take you from the height of friendship to the depth of jealousy and and back to love that endures even beyond death . if all war film be like this and we would never have to fight again . do i mention it worth watch . while ) positive .
