Battleground

For Screen and Country

Back to the list this week with the guys discussing the WWII film Battleground. The guys talk about white guy face blindness and the difficulty of old ensemble movies, the chaplain's powerful anti-fascism speech, impersonating the enemy during wartime, ironic patriotism, the director's dark sense of humour and much more.

Next week: Christian Bale lost in the jungle!
