Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesConor Quinlan, who plays P.J. in the movie, is the real-life grandson of Commandant Pat Quinlan, one of the main characters in the movie. Conor (as P.J.) gets to utter the line, "Quinlan doesn't know what he's doing. He's going to get us killed."
- GaffesWhen Commandant Quinlan is shot in the shoulder, the soldier who shot him is firing an M1898 Mauser. This rifle is chambered for the powerful 8x57mm cartridge which would have punched right through Quinlan at the implied range of 150-250 yards. Further, when the round is removed from Quinlan's shoulder and dropped in the dish, it is clearly not a 8x57mm round. In fact, it doesn't look like a rifle round at all...it looks like a larger caliber pistol round.

Commentaire à la une
I never heard of this battle before, and I'm a Belgian. Apparently this combat story has been held secret from us, or maybe I just skipped a lesson when they teached us that historical fact, that's also possible. Nevertheless, it doesn't really matter, as once again it's proven that war is fought by people that massacre each other but don't know each other, commanded and benefited by people that know each other but that don't fight each other. It's an interesting story, certainly entertaining, even for people that are not into war movies. A poignant story about courage, desperation and combat tactics. The cast was very good, with an excellent Jamie Dornan playing the main character Patrick Quinlan. Richie Smyth did a good job directing this hommage to those men that once came home as supposedly cowards only to be recognized as heroes fifty years later, typical again for the insanity of wars.
