Didnt watch it, but it probably leave out important facts (like the fact the French were protecting the evacuation the whole time) to focus on Brits getting a few bombs while they sit on the beach

Here's a short documentary that will tell you about the real Dunkirk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6C5P-AYGdY
>>
Didn't watch it, but I'm going to take a wild guess that they literally made a film about the battle of Dunkirk without even mentioning French troops.
>>
>>3137828
Well, they managed to make a game about WW1 without mentioning the French, so at this point...
>>
>>3137795
>>3137828

It features French troops...
>>
>>3137795
Watched it yesterday, it shows the French manning a defense against the Germans in the first five minutes and them not being allowed to evacuate (French colonial troops in 1940 France may not have been a thing I'm not sure) with the British till later on when they mention that the French are now evacuating with the Brits.
Not nearly what /pol/ hyped it up to be as Anglo propaganda, a solid film tbqh and the Germans don't really feature till right at the end, it's more just the British soldiers fear and random gunshots.
>>
>>3137842
Yeah, but does it point out the fact they were the ones slowing down the Germans while Brits were sitting on the beach?
>>
>>3137842
Are they all running away from the Nazis while crying and get saved by the heroic Brits?
>>
>>3137847

yes

watch the fucking film
>>
>>3137850

Right at the start the film makes it clear that French troops are the ones slowing the Nazis down.

It's a good movie but it's been marred by retardation.

Whether it's bogshits being autistic about "muh anglo propaganda" or retards bickering about a lack of stronk womyn, it's been attacked for daring to glorify Britain.

All in all I guess it's up there among the more "accurate" historical movies, and it's one of the ones I'd certainly say managed to at least portray how the men acted and felt during it.

Movies portraying soldiers as average dudes are always my favourites, it's why I loved '71.
>>
Watched it the other day.
How accurate was the civilian participation?
To me that was the main point of the movie.
You had the soldier on the beach, the pilot, and the civilians in their boat. Eventually all three meet up in the guy's boat and they go home, so what I took away was that the movie's biggest point was how civilians helped out.
If that parts historically accurate, then I think the movie did it fine because that seemed to be the main focus.
>>
>>3137994
>civilian participation
5% evacuated on civilian boats and yachts. A small contribution, but still ballsy as fuck, so credit where due.
>>
>>3137994
It happened but was less important than the film portrayed
>>
>>3138004
I'm not arguing, because I don't know, but I thought the 'small ships' took more than that. Any sources?

Either way that is what makes the story of Dunkirk so appealing, imagine crossing the Channel in a little fishing boat as the Luftwaffe are dropping bombs to grab a few soldiers and bring them to safety.
>>
>>3138004
>>3138011
Makes sense, I figured it didn't have the largest impact since there were so many soldiers and most boats that were depicted were pretty small.

As you said though, ballsy as hell and makes for a good story.

That doesn't back the claim of 5%, in fact it says the Belgian fishing fleet and boats from the Isle of Man Steam Company rescued more than 5% between them before you even start counting the other 'little ships'.

>French colonial troops in 1940 France may not have been a thing I'm not sure

Sweet then I have no gripes with the film and it was very good.
>>
>>3138067
Little boats were mostly used to ferry people out to the larger destroyers that couldn't come close to the beach. So it may be that only 5% came back on little boats, but that's not the whole story
>>

Obviously it isn't the whole story. It was the 5% claim I queried.

At least they died defending their homeland. Hundreds of thousands of British soldiers died in French mud they couldn't give one whit about.

They died for their "empire" (which still collapsed a couple of decade later regardless)

I thought it was a great film. As far as I know there were many little boats but they did a lot of ferrying from the beach to bigger ships. There were a few larger barges (basically party boats from before the war) that helped too. Also there were very very few people who drove their own boats, that was obviously included in the movie for the story

This honestly, to get the full effect. I saw it yesterday and found it to be a very well made and realistic portrayal of triumph from tragedy, cowardice and courage, selfishness and sacrifice, the worst and best in humanity when against the ropes. Watching it I couldn't find anything that would be considered inaccurate, it wasn't glorifying the British or denigrating the French, it was simply telling the story of defeated men trying to escape death or capture from a seemingly unstoppable foe, and the lengths they and others went to make it happen.

I do wonder though if Nolan putting Tom Hardy in a mask again was at least partly influenced by Bane-posting, I mean he was literally crashing planes with no survivors.

I think this had more to do with Tom being able to convey emotions while wearing a mask more so than any meme reason.

because that scene where hes running low on fuel but he also sees that german bomber going in for the kill on that ship, you can see him debating his choice of saving himself or the ship just by his eyes

I always enjoy WWII films about the British, because the ungrateful French always bitch and moan.
It's all well and good moaning about the British 'deserting' and 'running away', but let's turn it around for a second... why is there so little said by the French about the Vichy regime? Why is nothing said about the millions of French alive today who fought for, or are descended from people who fought for, Nazi beliefs and ideology?
>>

>I always enjoy WWII films about the British, because the ungrateful French always bitch and moan.

I've never seen the French whine about WW2 films
Generally, it's more about WW1 products that they're assmad of seeing less relevant Brits getting more representation

It's a highly intense, matter of fact exhibition of the crises, both physical and moral, that wartime brings.
As others have said the French rearguard is featured in the first five minutes and is referenced throughout.
Refreshingly, the film is true to life in that all but three soldiers are white, and those that aren't are French colonial troops who are in the background for about 20 seconds. Women are literally only shown pouring tea for the soldiers and giving them towels.

Above all it is a remarkable testament to the valour and sacrifice of the men of that war.

It's shown multiple times the British are being pricks about putting themselves before the French, to the point where they are willing to knowingly sacrifice the life of a "frog" over their own. This is redeemed by the end of the movie, when the admiral decides to stay behind and help the French. It's not given an overwhelming focus but clearly ties in with the recurring theme of the struggle between personal, selfish survival over being courageous.

And they're supposed to die and surrender with the French? That's not how it works.

>That's what the movie is trying to say.
The most is trying to say that the evacuation of Dunkirk was half a combined effort of the British military and half an act of God presenting and showcasing classic British stubbornness.

It's called wanting to survive when your order is to retreat using your own boats to get back to your own home.

Sorry Frenchies, maybe you should have extended that Maginot Line a little more and give half a shit.

The only thing I noticed while watching was that the 109s they were fighting weren't actually 109s. They were Hispano Buchons, which are basically license built Spanish 109s with a different engine. However, this seems like something only turbo autists like me would notice.

That being said, great film. Bravo Nolan.

Dunkirk is in france, after all.
Should the British expeditionary force be rear guard, whilst the french army is evacuated to Britain?
stop being a fucking idiot. it's war.
logical choices were made. they sacrificed an already defeated and diminished force, belonging to a nation who had already officially surrendered to save an almost entirely intact force of a country that hadn't been subjugated and was still opposing the nazis.
>>
I've seen it, and I'd say that although it does show some the French and highlight some of the injustices the French faced at the battle (there's a part where many French soldiers are trying to get on a boat but a British officer tells them "no French"), it still doesn't really give the full scope of what the French did at the battle of Dunkirk. I don't know enough about the battle to say anything about the historical accuracy of other parts though.

and these British forces should take rear guard whilst the french army is evacuated from their own country?
and you wonder why people think the french are cowards?
The majority of french troops at dunkirk were scrambling to get on boats, and abandon their country, against orders. That's the reason they were initially turned away. Because they had orders, from their own commanders, to defend dunkirk. Most of them tried to flee, and abandon their country and countrymen, like the turn coat cowards they are.

This.

The 300 Indian troops who where there were critical to defending and stopping Hitler.

It was also part of his plan at the end to be caught by the germans.

No, it was an operation that benefited both countryoes but failed
The Dunkirk evacuation however, was an operation that benefited Britain only as the wars was already lost for France
It was France's way to thank Brits for their attempt to help, despite their effective uselessness and failure to do anything worthwhile

If the French were the only ones to evacuate, then the rearguard should have been French only
If both French and Brits evacuated equally, then the rearguard should have been both French and British
But what happened is that Brits were the ones who evacuated in priority, while the rearguard was French only

That's pure lie btw
And the little piece of shit you are (fatass calling warriors from past wars cowards on his pc while pakis are raping women in your British streets) won't ever find a source to back it

What happened is that the biggest chunk of the French army was committed to the rearguard while another smaller one waited on the beach with Brits (manning anti-aicract guns on the beach) and waited for Brits to have fled in order to get their right to embark themselves
None of the troops committed to the rearguard gave up their post (which is why the evacuation was successful), so watch your mouth

have you had a look at the state of france?
people in glass houses etc.

the brits had every right to evacuate their forces as priority, as not doing so would have almost certainly brought about an invasion of Britain. France was already gone.
You want the Brits to show the French army gratitude for fighting the Nazis in France? are you having a fucking laugh?
It's quite telling that the only time the French forces really gave the Germans a fight is when you literally had nowhere left to run, because the royal navy wouldn't let you on their ships.

No, but for covering British fleeing ass while they could have simply surrendered before Brits even fled (the battle was already lost anyway), Brits sure should thank them

Not really. A frenchman is quasi-prominently in it, the French as a whole are alluded to right at the start, have a brief bit partway in, and then are offhandedly mentioned at the end.

I think it was enough to tell anyone who's not an idiot that they were there holding the line, but 'prominent' is misleading.

At least we have no muslims rampaging in our streets

>A double manhunt was launched after a 15-year-old girl was raped at a railway station then abused again by a man she flagged down to help.

>The first attacker is described as Asian with light skin, brown eyes, was of a skinny build and about 6ft tall.

>The second attacker is also described as Asian, in his early 20s, 5ft 6 or 7ins tall, of large build with a tight-cropped beard and was wearing a blue jumper and black jeans.

Lol, "asians"....
