the whole ending scene for the air story, with the spitfire just gliding over the cheering beach, and then landing on the far off beach, followed by Farrier burning the plane and the German soldiers emerging and marching him off. God that was powerful

That fucking opening scene was brilliant. Reminded me of Fury Road crossed with '71. We need more footchase kino.

Talking of '71, Jack Lowden was charismatic as fuck in this movie, at least as much so as Tom Hardy. Was rooting for them to survive more than anyone else.
>>
>>85301829

They most likely saw it land. Even if they didn't, they saw the smoke and came to investigate. To this day if a pilot crashes during a war situation, he will destroy the plane if he is able to. You don't give it to the enemy intact.

>>
>>85300920

sea was choppy, turning would have cost too much height, he'd risk crashing into someone and to ditch in the water you have to be able to do a stalling manouver so you bellyflop like the other pilot and he may no longer have had the airspeed to do it.

Did Nolan intentionally have Tom Hardy get caught after being in a plane the whole movie? It felt like he was talking to us, his boys.

I felt like he was having a bit of a cheeky laugh about baneposting. Maybe Aiden Gillan was one of the German soliders but got cut for time.

>>85302540
In the original script, when they come up to him on the beach, they say "so you got yourself caught" in German but they cut it because they didn't want to do subs and thought the foreign language would alienate audiences.

>>85302451

Even in the BFG he was incredible and nailed the character perfectly

This shit can't be by accident. Surely Nolan has encountered baneposting on his own. Tom has when he tried to do that AMA. I would not be surprised if he and Tom had long talks about how to imply that Farrier was a big guy.
>>
I'm surprised less people are talking about the masterful Zimmer score. The strings manipulated to constantly sound like distorted sirens, and the stop watch were perfect.

In addition to many other things, I think it lent very heavily to the dread and tension levied throughout the entire film. Only the last two songs on the official soundtrack have "modest" positive motifs; everything else is pure melancholy, pain, and depression.

>>85301737
Just a random, don't be dense.

>>85302930
We do train for landing in fields with a dead engine, but they had fairly limited emergency handling training. Also I've heard the spits glide performance is pretty poor.
>>
>>85303112
Yes, also it's very dangerous to parachute and it takes quite a bit of guts because it's not an ejector seat you literally just have to jump out of the cockpit.

With modern parachutes they reckon you need at least 500ft and the rule is don't jump out if you're below 1000ft. Bane looked like he was about 400ft after he shot down the stuka.

>>85303112
Germans could be particularly nasty to parachuters. At the time you were considered unarmed and essentially already surrendered if you bailed out of a plane in a chute, but they would often use your for target practice as you glided down anyways. Much safer to try and land your plane, plus I think a lot of POWs from the Allied side survived the war, compared to other camps of the time.

Built the tension, so that his eventual landing, coupled with the beginning of Nimrod, was almost orgasmic.

Not sure what the glide ratio of a Spitfire is (probably very high compared to modern planes) but it's stalling speed is very low, around 60mph
>>
I can't believe how brilliantly Nolan connected this with The Dark Knight Rises. Not only is Dunkirk kino, Iran also capekino.

> Germans could be particularly nasty to parachuters.
Bullshit. Not to British pilots at least. They had a healthy respect for one another.
>>
>>85303442
I could honestly be thinking of pilots in the Pacific, my apologies. Either way landing is a much safer bet than parachuting, especially to make sure you can destroy the plane.

>>
>>85303608
Yeah, well Dunkirk was a great film and I'm all up in your shit so what the fuck
>>
>>85303442

Lots of stories of German pilots being dicks.

I went to a school that still had their air raid shelters and there was an incident where one of the female teachers who came under fire from a German plane whilst running to the shelter and had to dive into it.

The only bombing incident for the town ( 30 miles off the sussex coast) was at a cinema. Lots of german planes had to lighten their load flying back and a lot of pilots had 'fun' when doing so, even if it involved civilian targets.
>>
>>85303618
I was wondering this too, although I had forgotten it.

Maybe he's the link to the 'other film' Nolan was talking about with Simon Mayo.

I think Nolan may have to do some awful American thing before returning to this actual film-making though.
>>
>>85303618

That soldier that escaped... was Bruce Wayne's grandfather.... the fire rises.
>>
>>85303681
I'm sure there were lots of British pilots being dicks too.

I'm still willing to bet that parachutists, on the whole, were not shot at or treated unfairly. (At least the Brits, I'm sure the Russians had a very sorry time of it.)
>>
Anyone else notice there were no closeups of the Germans. The most we see of them are wide angle shots of the fighters and bombers, and the men in the distance in op's image post. I can't think of another war movie like that.

I can't think of another war movie that doesn't cut back and forth between allies in their ship to nazis in their u-boat. Or, RAF pilot looking around in his cockpit cuts to closeup of nazi pilot with his visors down pressing his trigger.
>>
>>85303649
Honestly, I should fuck your ass for liking such a bad flick
>>
>>85303761
Nolan's on record saying that this was a conscious choice. The British soldiers/pilots rarely saw Germans close-up, so neither did we.

You have to agree that this way of doing it is much better than the jump-cutting of Hollywood.
>>
>>85302483

>>
>>85300920
He didn't have the right conditions or momentum after already fighting with an engine out. Landing poorly in the water will cause more of a fatal crash than on the ground with landing gear.
>>
WHY DIDNT HE JUST EJECT? He flew away for no reason!
>>
>>85303761
Very deliberately done. In fact Nazi Germany is never even named in the film, in the opening titles they're just called 'The Enemy'. I think they're meant to be this lingering, ever-present but unseen threat just always lurking on the boundaries of sight and perception, but never fully seen. Like when the soldiers go outside the perimeter, they say that 'Jerry could be behind those dunes', and how the fighters come out of the sun to attack. It increases the tension and sense of looming dread.

If this was an American production though there would have been an English-accented German SS villain, and the film would cut back to him periodically being shown impaling babies on spikes, murdering POWs and raping local French women (just to reinforce the point that the Nazis are evil). Also it would have had an hour of exposition where we meet the main characters and all their friends and family and we get a shoe-horned romance plot just so that we're rooting for the good guys to make it back to their Iowa potato farms.

>>85302286

I think he pulled an Immelman and on the way up the Stuka passed through his sights, giving a quick shot before he rolled back and glided the other way down the beach. This way he turns his momentum into altitude which he can transfer back into momentum again..

Only problem is whether or not he had the speed for the maneuver to begin with.
>>
>>85303112
Need more altitude and they would want to turn the plane upside down for bailing.
>>
>>85303362

I remember reading the exact opposite? That there as a code of honour for bailing out pilots on both sides. Don't know if that applied to soldiers shooting at bailing pilots though, because they would shoot at paratroopers.

I think this would most likely be the case, the Japanese military had no respect for people who would stop fighting in order to survive. Like how some Japanese pilots would blow themselves up in the water while being rescued. It causes a vicious cycle on both sides.

That is true about the stall speed.

British and German pilots tended not to for a couple of reasons - 1. Instructions came down from headquarters from both sides that essentially said "if we do it, they'll do it - and we don't want that". 2 - Depending on where you are it doesn't make sense to shoot their parachute, if they're over your territory far better to take them alive and have the option of interrogating them

>If this was an American production though there would have been an English-accented German SS villain, and the film would cut back to him periodically being shown impaling babies on spikes, murdering POWs and raping local French women (just to reinforce the point that the Nazis are evil). Also it would have had an hour of exposition where we meet the main characters and all their friends and family and we get a shoe-horned romance plot just so that we're rooting for the good guys to make it back to their Iowa potato farms.

That unironically would've been a better film.

No they were just French. Germany had between 8 and 12 spies planted in Britain during the entire war, and all of those were either dead, in prison or turned double agent by the end. They had neither the means nor the desire to plant spies directly into British army units (where they'd be pretty much useless and highly likely to die or be captured). German intelligence was massively deficient and one of their major weaknesses, especially when compared to British intelligence.

When they were in the ship that had run aground, how were the Germans able to put holes in the boat?

Since water immediately poured through some of the holes, it can be assumed that they were below the water line when the bullets penetrated the hull. That doesn't really make spacial sense to me. Wouldn't the Germans either have to be firing through several meters of water or situated at an extremely high angle? Doesn't seem like very good target practice.

I didn't tear up at all because he was a literal nobody.

What the fuck was his name again?

What was his dad's name?

What was his brother's name?

Nobody in this film is a real person, they're just dummies for Nolan to move around and set up into ridiculous moral dilemas so he can intellectualy masturbate about his philosphical knowledge. There is nothing patriotic or inspiring about Dunkirk. The closing speech in the film is to make a pithy point about utilitarianism. Nolan is a fucking twerp. Did the same thing in TDKR and Interstellar. He sets up his movies to jack off about ideas, not to tell an engaging story

You have a neat idea.

But I think that since the Germans were closing in on the French/British all the time, they were behind the lines simply due to German advances.

The two lads were working together to get back to England before the others by 'queue jumping' - a very un-British thing to do.

>>85305283
You use a lot of words there, kid. And don't say a great deal.

Nolan's intent, stated again and again, was to focus less on character and more on situation. They are 'vignettes' or people in terrible situations, snippets of what certain kinds of people do in these situations: Rylance the stoic veteran trying to keep shit together, Styles the scared green soldier, Hardy the heroic idealistic pilot.

Have some fucking imagination, son.

I think that's partially because there isn't much to discuss. These threads are filled with duplicated discussions. Film making, technical aspects of the film, soundtrack, set pieces. These are the things being discussed.
What the fuck are normies supposed to talk about after leaving the theatre? WOW, GREAT SET PIECES! The movie doesn't leave much to be discussed. Characters weren't fleshed out, storyline is basic and historical, motives are clear. Nothing to chew over.

The neutral

>You dont see the enemy soldiers at all until the last shot with hardy. This was obviously intentional because you dont even see them in the first few scenes or the trawler boat scene. I suppose it was to create the feeling that these people are escaping the war itself rather than trying to demonize the other side.

The bad
>the split narrative got kind of annoying when it was CONSTANTLY switching between storys, like every couple of shots. Especially towards the part where tom hardy shot down the bomber over the destroyer as it banked back around. It made the film feel drawn out and was almost DBZ levels of trying to create tension from nothing.
>Cheesy ending. Churchill stuff wasnt at all needed
>scene in the trawler seemed shoe-horned in to create tension while the other stories were doing so. Especially the stuff with the french guy being accused of beign a spy/told to get off the boat.
>Some of the triumphant moments seemed a bit over the top and cheesy. Specificlaly the general tearing up when he saw the civilian boats.


I liked it but cant see myself watching it again. I think it would have worked better as a short or a mini series but nolan obviously wanted to make it with the budget of a film, which imo messed with it's pacing overall.

Not sure why you don't consider this a positive. I'm tired of Hollywood depicting German soldiers as cannon fodder. War itself is enemy.

>>85305384
Yeah, exactly. Weird ass vignettes. It's like a bunch of half baked star trek episodes adapted for, and then squashed into a WW2 movie.

Like that scene on the boat where what'shisname tries to defend frenchface from Harry Styles. I couldn't make out the dialogue due to their dumb fucking prole accents, but it was trying to make some point about duty ethics and not singling out the Frenchman purely based on the fact that he's different from them and then ZOOP - on to the next scene.

I'm glad you enjoyed it man, but I thought it was a extremely clumsily put together film. I have a feeling that Nolan purposefuly constructs them this way so people are tempted to buy tickets to the movie multiple times to piece together the clustefuck of a narrative.

Unnecessary, everyone knows the story of Dunkirk, unless you're American or something.

The British hardly saw Germans face-to-face at this stage in the war, so neither do we.

> the split narrative
Somewhat agree. But how the three threads came together at the end was enjoyable.

> Cheesy ending. Churchill stuff wasnt at all needed
I liked it. It's only for the last two minutes or so, and it's what actually happened. The music is the only addition.

Its like the ending of a film about the cviil rights movement having MLK's "I HAVE A DREAM" speech play at the end of it. Putting it in there is essentially just telling the audience how to feel, especially with the triumphant music with it. It just felt hokey to me, like it was designed to inspire and make me tear up. It felt manipulative. As soon as i heard it the speech being read i knew it would be the last scene because

Of course Churchill's speech was manipulative, that was its entire purpose. But it was also required, Britain was on the verge of being invaded, and people before Dunkirk thought the war was 'over there somewhere'. He was preparing us for Total War.

Of course soldiers talk shit during downtime, but this isn't interesting fodder for films. If I'm watching a film about paratroopers being attached the the Waffen-SS, I don't want to know what Tom Hanks does for a living.

I can understand why you find people connecting with one another on a deep level during war out of place and I'll admit that we Americans can be too friendly at times. But I think it adds to our identity in a pleasant way. Kind of like the retarded kid at the lunch table that everyone loves to hate but if someone outside the group fucks with him, we'd kick his ass.

Would women be capable of understanding this film? Trying to decide whether to take my gf or not.

worst summer for movies in recent history

like really disappointing, even after the past few summers

I loved Dunkirk, actually liked Alien Covenant, and that's about it. Haven't seen Baby Driver yet but my reddit tier friends say it's good. Everything else is either so disappointing or so dull.

Did you even watch SPR? One time they're talking like regular guys about someone they knew who peed on another guy or some shit like that. Then, another guy later talks about this one lady he knew with a huge rack and she let him stare at them. And even as they first depart on the mission, the translator guy gets mocked for trying to get to know the others. The dialogue in that film is incredible and both films are incredible

I fell out of a two story window head-first and cracked my skull on concrete when i was around 10-11 and im fine.

tfw i have a horrible fear that i might have brain damage from it but all of my MRI scans came back fine. Tfw the scene where the kid hit his head made me feel faint and woozy because it reminded me of the time i cracked my skull and resurfaced my fear

I'm sure she would like Harry Styles and Hardy. The deeper senses about duty, glory, and sacrifice will, I'm afraid, be lost on her.

What the fuck are you talking about last summer as such a shitshow that they've lost $2 billion from summer box office I think they even lose more this year

I feel sorry for the people who won't see this on the big screen.

Watching it on your laptop is not acceptable with this movie.
>>
>>85304890
I mean his buddy landed on water because he absolutely could not reach land, and he almost drowned doing it so I assume Hardy just wanted to get as smooth of a landing as he could.

Honestly mate, I'm (mostly) joking, you Americans do you. It just gets somewhat tiring in every war film to have lengthy sequences that are essentially the director flashing up a sign saying "You care about this person now". Most of you are actually okay.

>>85307259
Of course then there's this faggot. What's the matter chum Betty Lou run off with that no good neighbour of yours after he stole the apple pie your 'mom' baked for you and wrapped in the stars and stripes for safe keeping?

>Cillian Murphy has a small scuffle that lasts 5 seconds
> Inbred kid falls down 5 steps inside the ship and hurts his head
> He's dead 2 scenes later

This was the only part of the film I was baffled by. Completely pointless, poorly executed, unnecessary mortality drama, and it just seems silly in the end. I didn't think the kid was going to die because the """""fight"""""" that killed him was so pathetic and short. He ended up being an emotional pawn for Nolan to make the seafaring part of the film seem serious. Should've dropped his character all together.

>>85307484
How many 'rekt' gifs have you seen where some kids gets punched once and instantly dies? Many, I bet.

The shocking thing about many accidents like this is how quick and unexpected they are.

My grandpa was pushed out of a third story window in college during a hazing thing and ended up with some sort of brain damage. The guys who pushed him out didn't help him so he was on the ground in the snow for an hour until someone found him. Ended up with some pretty bad brain damage. Lots of really bad headaches, started to lose his memory early. Started drinking and smoking to try and escape the pain. Died in his 50s from overall terrible health and effects of alcoholism.

Every time I see someone hit their head, I think about it. I miss my grandpa.

You could say the same thing about any other aspect of a film.

Dialogue, just like anything else, can be done well or poorly. No need to get hostile, bruv

not the same anon, but that's actually the problem i had with it. it felt like nolan was trying too hard to hit le "death is sudden and unpredictable" nihilism. it was hackneyed.

Does anyone know who played the guy on the smaller boat that arrived after the main character(s) exited the larger torpedoed boat? He looked an awful lot like Cillian Murphy, and this confused me.

>According to actor-director Kenneth Branagh, roughly 30 veteran Dunkirk survivors, who were in their mid nineties, attended the premiere in London. When asked about the film, they felt that it accurately captured the event but that the soundtrack was louder than the actual bombardment, a comment that greatly amused director Christopher Nolan.

The guy in the rowboat? I thought the same thing for a bit.
>>
>>85307539

If he wanted it to seem realistic, then the fight should've lasted longer and had more intesity to it. There's 5 seconds of camera shake, and I remember the old captain being on the other side of the wheel not even being touched with this "well, I never!" expression. The biggest sin of that whole plot point was its poor execution, and the character still would've been an emotional pawn of nolan even if he did the scene correctly.

>the soundtrack was louder than the actual bombardment
fucking this
they played music over most of the dialogue and it washed out any semblance of coherence/impact due to the poor sound mixing.

Tom Hardy wasn't actually ON the enemy fighter, he was still in his own plane. What gives?

That's what I thought it might be, but the thought of how he got from point A to point B (both physically and emotionally) left me questioning that theory.

They went out on the raft to the next waiting ship, but got torpedoed again in the water. Cillian was the last survivor. Don't forget the land events took place over the course of a week, and the sea events all happened on the last day

He obviously gets onto some destroyer or something and that gets sunk by U-boat. This fucks him up emotionally (he's already visibly shaken on the lifeboat).
