BLOG DISCUSSION DAY
- Defiance- four brothers that are jews who are trying to escape the German forces. they make a camp in the woods and they live there for a while.. they join forces with the soviet unioin. Some of them join the soviet army. Zeus finds out that Germany is planning to attack the forest where the Jews are at. They retreated through this marsh.. some characters stay back and some go through the marsh and I am really confused and some person named Erin or Aaron fight some people and then they die and theres something about a tank shooting at some jews. Apparently it looked like they were gonna be screwed but then they live. And this is a true story. Towards the end it says the group stays in the forest until the end of the war. It is a good movie but it is really long. Its also a slower pace movie and parts of it get long. The people in the movies are good actors.
- Pearl Harbor- The beginning starts with some nurse who is like telling someone how she met with some dude getting a physical to get into the military and the dude was in dislexic but she passed him cause she felt bad for him. The dude voluntered to go do something. There is some dude named Raffe? and someone else named Danny.. Mr. Bruns does not want us to spoil this movie. They were expecting a plane to come in so the people were not worried or anything. Now there is some controversy about people wanting to watch movies that other people are doing and Mr, Bruns said that it is ok.. but anyways. Later in the movie they are talking about attacking Japan because Japan attacked us. They end up bombing Japan.. Ashley said it is a good movie. It is a movie with a lot of spoilers.. which by the way means that the movie is being spoiled to other people that would like to watch it. There is a crazy love story in it. A lot of guys find the movie "sappy" and stuff... but... yeah.
- Enemy at the Gates- This movie is about the Battle of Stalingrad. It was about a russian and a german sniper that were after eachother the entire time. There was a kid that was like telling both of them where the other person was so they kept running into eachother. At the begginning the russian was on a boat with a bunch of people and the people that jumped off the boat got shot. There was some suicidal run where only one person lived then he ran into some newspaper guy and.. its a good movie.. and you don't see a lot of movies about stalingrad because we never fought over there. In this battle alone the soviets lost 1.1 million people in this battle alone so it had to have been like super duper intense with so many deaths.
- Saving Private Ryan- The movie starts with some old guy who is a veteran in the war and he is looking at a grave and he collapses and then it shows him looking back. Ryan was one of four brothers who was in the war and they were all paratroopers and they were all killed except for him.. they were on some search and rescue mission to save private Ryan and to send him home. They wanted to capture this guy so that the mother would have one child that remained. These people thought that this was like a super unimportant mission to go look for this one person but they did it because it was a direct order.. they meet some wounded guy names Steamboat Willy then they wanna blow up some bridge and then some Miller guy gets shot by steamboat willy and they fly over and bomb these tanks.. the men continue on and this guy executes steamboat willy and they find a bunch of surrendered Germans with Priavate Ryan.. this is a movie that people really need to see.
- Night- about Elie Wiesels journey as a Jew and going through concentration camps and stuff and like how he is seperated from his family but stays with his fathers and how he has to go on these death runs and something happens to his foot. I read this book in eighth grade.. so.. yeah.
- Schindler's List- some schindler guy is working in a factory.. he has a Jew accountant? he has a work pass and if the nazis come up to you they show them a work pass and he forgot his work pass so he has to go to this concentration camp and he would befriend the runners of the concentration camps and he made this list of like all these people that he wanted to save and most of the movie is in black and white except some part with this little girl and yeah.. its a good movie i guess and i'm excited to watch it.
