There are so many historical errors in the narration it’s hard to know where to start. It was the Japanese who were outnumbered. A difficult battle to be sure but not part of a plan to invade Australia. Never an intention of the Japanese high command. The 7th division were almost encircled early on but were not ‘choccos’. The Japanese had only about 13.5k troops on this theatre- the equivalent of a single division. They lost 50 per cent of this number to battle and disease. The Australians had at least twice that number and a much better supply line and naval support. After Guadalcanal the Japanese position was hopeless. In Australia this battle- as brutal as it was- has been hyped into a myth. A single depleted division was never going to ‘invade’ Australia. That’s pure fantasy and we knew it, our high command was reading enigma decrypts and knew the advance south was over and that Japanese efforts were focussed towards India. But our politicians hyped up this relatively Minor engagement to create panic in order to justify moving Australian troops back from more important fronts. Later, our government would continue to uselessly deploy Australian troops on ‘mopping up’ operations to try and keep our forces ‘relevant’ to earn a place at the post war table. Turning Blamey into a field Marshall for example is part of this circus. He was not a field Marshall. He was a minor commander effectively under American command. Many Australian and Japanese lives were wasted to serve his vanity, in fruitless attacks on isolated garrisons of Japanese throughout the pacific who could have just been picked up after the war. These ‘battles’ were totally pointless. The best leaders in the Australian army pointed this out… and lost their commands as a result.

RISING THE SUN MINI SERIES MOVIE

Ha senso che una presunta donna affermi , e diffonda tale affermazione , "a far l'amore ( amore , o altro ?? ) comincia tu" ????? Ciò invita non poche tipologie di abuso //..///// Qual tipo di natura si cela dietro tale personalità ?? E' forse intossicata da una qualche idolatria e/o sostanza devolvente ?? Si cita "città eterna" , per riferirsi ironicamente ad un luogo di raccolta degli idolatri e/o dei neo-primitivi ?? Si cita "high life" , per riferirsi ironicamente allo stile di vita degli idolatri e/o dei neo-primitivi ??

Great movie ❤

👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

Couscous with fish and boiled vegetables. Is that the only thing they eat?

IDK, feeling cute. Might watch a movie later that makes me want to kill myself. lolz. We'll play it by ear.

I heard many years ago that the seemingly unstoppable Japanese in their post-Pearl frenzy were finally given a bloody nose by the Aussies.

Wonderful movie

❤❤❤

My dad had not long died when I first saw this. That closing scene has me in tears every time. Eddie Marsan is a national treasure.

Alto livello ✌️✌️♥️

Pop wasn’t at Kokoda, his battalion arrived later and was decimated at the Buna beachhead.

Looks good

I saw this film in the theater in the USA when it was released and my initial reaction was that it was boring and didn't really live up to the critical hype at the time. However over the years I appreciate it more, especially the subtle humor and its charming simplicity. The West certainly could learn a thing or two from foreign films and the humanity of slow-paced bucolic culture.

Thanks To the Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels For Helping The Aussie Men

Great movie about a naive kid stepping into the real world. More people should watch this movie.

Must be in my top 10 favorite movies. Trully special in philosofical substance, pure aesthetics, soundtrack, Italy and plenty of room for viewer to fill in the blanks. However one must know Sorentino drew a lot of ideas from Fellini.

Does Skarsgård speak Norwegian in this film, or does he speak his native Swedish?

Посмотрела вчера

Видела весь фильм на канале "Культура". Очень понравился! Русский закадровый параллельный дубляж нисколько не повредил фильму. Сохранилась "музыка языка" оригинала. Очень трогательный фильм , и грустный и смешной. До глубины души задевает.

RÛE ROYÂLE / ISABELLE CARREE §§!!!?

The most glorious film about Rome since La Dolce Vita. Going to Rome for the first time in October, will be watching both films again before my adventure begins.

I must see this

Absolutely heart wrenching And it's a true story and this crap still goes on today These boys were more men than the house father's or even anyone that I know

How I downloaded it

hats off to the aussies on kokoda. those who recovered would have laffed at this silly deluge of hyperbole, but being real aussies they would probably snicker and insist it was just like this movie, maybe even make themselves think so too.

May I ask what impact on the war over all did the Kokoda campaign have. I suggest not a lot.

This movie is a master piece..First time I saw it I was speechless for about an hour ..The feelings were too much, too raw. Plus my beloved Rome, the city where I lived for 5 years . The beauty, the magic and the filth showed to perfection.

Buena película

Omg, just watched it, top class movie

TRUFFAULT ?
