Still great
28 March 2006
Have watched this film so many times,and still love it.I think the dogs name is a bit unfortunate,the fact is Guy Gibson owned a black dog and that was the dogs name,so the film is only trying to be accurate.In those days there were very few ethnic people in the country,so the film is not guilty of how people view it today of being racist,as none was ever intended.I wont comment on the special effects,as it was made in post war Britain on a very tight budget,we get the point of what the bombs were doing,so you don't need brilliant special effects to convince us.The acting is good and not overstated.The film is dedicated to the courage of the brave men who flew this near impossible mission.I hope they will never do a remake of this film,as i think this should be the only version.
