Does Dunkirk portray that the obsession of the "little boats" is mostly nonsense since the majority of men were evacuated from the harbor on large ships?
Does Dunkirk portray that even when "little boats" were used 90% of the time they were crewed by assigned naval personnel, not their civilian owners/crew?

No, it'll probably be British-centered revisionism, like most historical movies made by Americans
Don't expect them to talk about how the French rearguard protected the entire operation while British troops were sitting on the beach

You'll probably get the POV from one of the waiting British soldiers that's "so brave" because he's getting bombed every few hours, and zero mention of the intense fightings between the French rearguard and the advancing Germans just few kms away within the land...

It is impossible for us, your comrades up to now, to allow your fine ships to fall into the power of the German enemy. We are determined to fight on until the end, and if we win, as we think we shall, we shall never forget that France was our Ally, that our interests are the same as hers, and that our common enemy is Germany. Should we conquer we solemnly declare that we shall restore the greatness and territory of France. For this purpose we must make sure that the best ships of the French Navy are not used against us by the common foe. In these circumstances, His Majesty's Government have instructed me to demand that the French Fleet now at Mers el Kebir and Oran shall act in accordance with one of the following alternatives;

(a) Sail with us and continue the fight until victory against the Germans.

(b) Sail with reduced crews under our control to a British port. The reduced crews would be repatriated at the earliest moment.

If either of these courses is adopted by you we will restore your ships to France at the conclusion of the war or pay full compensation if they are damaged meanwhile.

(c) Alternatively if you feel bound to stipulate that your ships should not be used against the Germans lest they break the Armistice, then sail them with us with reduced crews to some French port in the West Indies—Martinique for instance—where they can be demilitarised to our satisfaction, or perhaps be entrusted to the United States and remain safe until the end of the war, the crews being repatriated.

If you refuse these fair offers, I must with profound regret, require you to sink your ships within 6 hours.
Finally, failing the above, I have the orders from His Majesty's Government to use whatever force may be necessary to prevent your ships from falling into German hands.


The French boats specifically were not going to join, or even sail to a neutral country.

Because all these choices, except sunking the ships, would have boken the armistice. Letting the brits have control over the fleet, even just to accompany them to a french port, would have been seen as a breach of the armistice by the germans at that point.
>>
>>85163209
>It is impossible for us, your comrades up to now, to allow your fine ships to fall into the power of the German enemy

And yet Britain did, out of pure cowardice
The bulk of the French fleet (more than 120 ships) was located in Toulon (French coast), but Brits never attempted anything against it because they were too scared of Germans to even come back near French coast before Daddy America was with them
So instead, Brits attacked a tiny French flotilla of 9 ships in Algeria (Mers El Kebir) and the French had to scuttle their main fleet themselves so it wouldnt fall to German hands

Commanding officers said that they were in favour of keep on fighting.
>Admiral François Darlan, Commander of the French Navy, promised that the fleet would remain under French control and out of the hands of the Germans.[3]
Surviving french sailors said that they were in favour of joining the british navy and keep on fighting.

Negotiations were led by retards.
>Somerville did not present the ultimatum personally. Instead, this duty fell to the French-speaking Captain Cedric Holland, commanding officer of the carrier HMS Ark Royal. Admiral Gensoul, affronted that negotiations were not being conducted by a senior officer, sent his lieutenant, Bernard Dufay, which led to much delay and confusion. As negotiations dragged on, it became clear that neither side was likely to give way.[19]

>French Navy Minister Admiral Darlan was at his house at Nérac in Gascony on 3 July, and could not be contacted. Admiral Gensoul told the French government that the alternatives were internment or battle.[20]

Brits attacked willing allies without a war declaration. Churchill dun goofed

I bet you don't complain that Ancient Greek literature is almost all about Ancient Greece though do you?
If the French want a Dunkirk about the French they can make their own fucking movie, just like the Russians can make their own movie about the Eastern Front if they want to, just like the Germans have made dozens of movies about the experiences of their people during the war.
But no, French filmmakers want 3 hours of B&W footage of cigarette smoke wafting in front of a stained glass depiction of Christ and Russian filmmakers are too busy swilling cheap spirits to make anything of worth, so you get nothing, faggot

The issue is that the French were the key players in the Battle of Dunkirk
I know Americans hate France and the French, but rather than unwarrantedly excluding them from moments of history in which they played a major role (like it happened in the American video game BF1 and now in this American movie), American media creators should just choose moments of history in which the French were irrelevant, if it irritate them so much to depict frogs fighting
>>
>>85163958
It's a british movie about the brits sitting on the beach and their transportation from that beach. If pollacks wanted to make a movie about a couple of pollacks fighting off the Germans during Dunkirk they can and have no obligation to show the brits or the frogs in it.

And by the way, you can see the french troops at 1:07 right in the trailer.

Yes, because it's about the brits on the beach. It's not a history channel documentary, it's a british movie about the brits on the beach.

Well yeah they are not right there, but they are the reason why the war was won.
Just like the french troops in the battle of Dunkirk are not fighting off germans right at that beach, they are fighting inland. And they are acknowledged in the movie, but it's not about them.
That would be just a standard ww2 "lets kill all the nazis" heroic shootout film and Nolan wasn't going for that. It's a suspense movie about scared britbois dodgding stukas, torpedos and bombs with no actual defense.

For most of the war, indeed
That's why you won't hear anyone whine about them not being depicted fighting in Saving Private Ryan or Fury

the airplane dogfights are fucking amazing

You go right into the events of the movie, no "This is what going on" and no old guys talking about what a crisis this is.
Just getting to the beach and how in the hell are you going to off it.


bane is really good, so is Mark Rylance, even the singer is good.

The only bad part is it too good for memes and some of the troops on the beach look alike due to haircuts and general looks

France actually has a pretty impressive military history

If anything, Britain is the country that always get its allies to do all the fighting only to claim victory at the end (Seven Years War, Napoleonic Wars, Crimean War, WW1, WW2...)

The fleet at Mers-el-Kebir was much more of a strategic threat then Toulon fleet for a number of reasons. Both in location (Much closer to the shipping lanes), ability to set sail, and actual units.

In hindsight, it would have been better to hold the 120,000 troops in England for another week or two and then let them decide if they wanted to be free french or returned to france.

Cowardice meme aside, imagine what it mean for your average dude to join the Free French in 1940
Back then there was no hint that Germany would lose a few years later, for what they knew, it could have remained in power for a lifetime
And joining the Free French meant self-exiling yourself away from your homeland, and thus your family, until the defeat of the Reich

Don't see why, France were in on making the film. It's a joint British, American, Dutch and French production. Mostly British but still.

You don't see Dunkirk falling during the movie and the soldiers retreating slowly to the beach.
You just see 3 soldiers of the weimar at the end of the movie and one french soldier involved.

The films actually ends with Kenneth Branagh's character saying he's staying behind to help the french evacuate. It's made clear they're the reasons the beaches weren't overrun by the germans.
>>
>>85173537
Not really. As some said before it's not a documentary and it does not focus on the fighting but on the evacuation.
And from the french reviews of the movie I've read only one is complaining about this.


>>85173700
>the only episode of WW2 in which they did something not too ridiculous

Not the only one but the most famous at least.
>>
>>85173833
And why do you need to see Dunkirk falling? Why is it bad to thrown right at the beach at the start of the movie?
This is not a history channel documentary, it's a film.

They did Stalingrad, Brest fortress and shitton of TV WWII flicks.

The movie has 3 viewpoints it cuts between, Guy trying to get off the beach, civilian boat trying to get to Dunkirk, and air battle. They aren't shown chronologically. As the beach scenes span a week, civilian boat spans a day, and air-combat spans an hour. They all intertwine though in both events and characters.

The best thing about the movie is the sound mixing. This is the type of movie you need to see in the cinema cos guns and explosions are realistically loud and noise of the stuka dive bombers are scary as fuck. The air combat scenes is probably some of the best shot WW2 scenes put on screen in terms of audiovisual realism and also for looking and sounding gorgeous. But it doesn't really feel as tense as I had hoped, might be a flaw in the editing.
Music is effective but not memorable.

Not much of a plot, this is more of a Dunkirk 'the experience'

One or two cringe cheese lines of dialogue.

Never get to see Germans clearly. French are there though and portraid well.

Just the right length.

Would work well with sequels, perhaps Nolan will make a battle for Britain film in the future.
>>
>>85178507
FUCK sequels

this movie was perfect


yeah when stukas were atacking you could tell everyone in the theatre was about to have a heart atack

fucking amazing sounds

the soundtrack was just there to grab you by the balls nonstop and never let go throughout the movie

I bet it sounds fucking amazing with the theatrical speakers, as most movies do. That's why ripfags always think movies are trash. They never watch them in their prime environment because they're too fucking poor to buy a $6 matinee ticket.

the germans were portrayed so fucking badass in this

they were always faceless, diffused, you saw their bullets and almost no germans at all

they were so fucking intimidating in this movie it was amazing what not showing something can do

not one word of german, this was so fucking good

Just came back from this.

Not that good, some good scenes.

The movie is hollow as shit at some points and gets all british oi oi britain strong at some points, but overall the movie is hollow.

Good sound design though, the stuka sounds were terrifyingly done to good effect.

Backstreetboy teen heartthrobguy was a fucking prick, fuck him.

No time skips but Nolan does apparently employ multiple non-linear POVs as a device, which can come off gimmicky if it's not executed with tact and doesn't actually serve a narrative purpose other than "woah, we already saw that happen from the other guy's perspective!"

>>85173537
I'm French and I sure am exactly because of >>85173700 which I feel is 100% true.
We get treated like dogshit by the Anglos, it's like we're little better than some obscure niggerland lost in the middle of a remote country and not an acnient powerhouse of Europe.
And don't bother quoting this last line memeing about that what France is exactly that, it would be as disingenuous as it would not be remotely funny.
The cowardice meme was fun and somehow understandable in 2003, fifteen years have passed and only delusional educated people still think it's "light banter" : most people unironically believe this joke as a fact (while one need only look at Italy's performance during the WW to have some perspective on the matter).
Even people from countries we would effortlessly destroy in a war joyfully joke about we're all sissy whining faggots who'd surrender at the first sign of violence. It is beyond insulting to be robbed and barred like that from even a shed of honour and pride regarding our war history as a people and nation. Heck, even regarding solely History.
Fuck you Anglos.

its already in cinemas in europe, first screening was at 8 PM.
saw it there. some juan direction fangirls were next to me taking photos of the backstreetboy that in the film.

He's a whiny fucking cunt in the picture. Fuck him
>>
>>85182080
here's the down low
- non chronological storyline, but the editing isn't done well imo, should have kept it in one direction (ahem)
- the movie feels hollow, i fucking loved the prestige, inception, but this is really hollow, no emotion strikes me
- fion broadhead or whatever the fuck is bretty good, hated backstreetboys character
- typical british bravura, but they do some acknowledgement that the french are holding the line
- some good shots, but i think that wally pfister would have done a better job
- as most reviews say, the characterization is weak, for example, the omaha beach scene in saving private ryan has more characterization in it than this imo, and its hurting the movie
- hated the fact that they showed text at the begging, it ruined the dread (its starts with the leaflets in the little french town)
- bane saves the day, and its just too much of a heroic moment
- the british are coming scene with the little vessels was fucking stupid, music and shit made it cheesy as shit
- awesome sound design, fucking dive bombers felt like roaring dragons coming to scorch earth

In closing, its difficult to direct a proper war movie today, either you're going gore porn like fury, or something stale as shit like this is.

One thing to note, it's strange if you compare the Dunkirk scene Atonement to this, in Atonement the beach is littered with ... well.. everything, here they're clean and so are the soldiers waiting in line, somehow it doesn't seem realistic. And i've seen enough documentaries and footage from Operation Dynamo to know that Dunkirk's portrait of the beaches isn't what was really there..

See it in IMAX, don't expect to blown away, i thought Inception, The Prestige and even Interstellar are better and i've seen all Nolan movies and this for me is his weakest Hollywood Picture.
