Film: Yamato the last battle
Never heard of this film, seems to be made in 2005 and received very good ctitics!
Shown 17. Dezember 2005, it is the most successful film in Japan (in term of revenue) to date. Originaltitle: Otoko-tachi no Yamato Actors: Takashi Sorimachi, Shido Nakamura Regie: Junya Sato  http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=q4QWqDTCk2A This is more of a drama film than a "battle film" - there was no big battle when 250 USN planes came down on it at the same time... they shot it to pieces (intrestinly enough, the AAA did not manage to hit a single USN plane; This astonishing failure is attributed to the lack of war training of the past months by some, to the high alcohol consumption the evening before which lasted until the early morning hours by others). OK after having seen it, I would rank it in the category "Titanic drama", it is a very nice and touching film!!!!! ~S~ Last edited by 335th_GRAthos; 12-14-2011 at 08:41 PM.

It is not a movie, it is a documentary:
BBC The Fall of Singapore, The Great Betrayal (2012) You will be shocked by the information that was declassified for 80 years!!!!! ~S~

Thank you Salmo, it is a great film, I liked it more than Yamato to be honest. There is a huge amount of disbelief than a Japanese U-boot captain would ever behave like that, but the film was great and the finale even better! Now, we need to find subtitles for the Russian films, I hope our Russian friends will turn up soon....  ~S~

OK, I have got an interesting one - not everybody's taste:
THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME (1916) (Yes, 1916 is the production year) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0006405/ In 2005 this film was inscribed on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register for the preservation of global documentary heritage. You need to find the version of the film that was digitally restored in 2007-8 by the Imperial War Museum’s Film and Video Archive and Dragon Digital Intermediate. It represents a startling improvement on previously released video versions. Description ---------------- 'The Battle of the Somme' was a pioneering battlefield documentary film made by British official cinematographers Geoffrey Malins and John McDowell in June-July, 1916. Though intended as patriotic propaganda, the film gave, for its time, a graphic portrayal of trench warfare, showing dead and dying British and German soldiers. It was released in early August 1916, barely a month after the events it depicted, and it is estimated that no less than half the population of the UK eventually watched it. It remains one of the most popular British films of all time. Contemporary cinema-goers hailed it as an opportunity to see the reality of the Western Front for the first time and to share the experiences of the soldiers who were fighting there. The film inaugurated a debate about the on-screen depiction of combat that continues to this day, and is the origin of some of the most widely used and iconic moving images of the First World War. Actualy, one scene of the film is considered to be fake. There is even a book written about it: GHOSTS ON THE SOMME: Filming the Battle, June-July 1916 http://www.amazon.com/GHOSTS-ON-THE-.../dp/1844158365  ~S~

Wut? The Japanese aren't allowed their Afleck & Hartnett?
I'm aware it's more of a drama piece and on some trailers, they show the triple 25's (?) firing with no recoil. (For some reason, it brings flashbacks of the old Godzilla films using scale models!) Drinking the night before? In a ship of 2,600 plus it is extremely difficult to keep a one way mission voyage a secret. Can you blame them? For all the hype of their fanatacism, they were still human. With all that, I'd still like to see this when I can get a hold of it.
