"I'm the only one left who knows!" - MIRACLE AT ST. ANNA trailer!
It's great that Spike Lee is making a movie about black American soldiers during World War II because he's right, they have been left out of so many Hollywood productions it's not even funny but I'm not so keen on the idea of him stuffing his intentions with the film down our throats. Yes mention that's where you got the idea from but he's gone on and on and on... it's a tired record. His whole feud with Clint Eastwood has been ridiculous. Eastwood is not the reason for the lack of World War II movies featuring black soldiers and his attack on him for Flags of our Fathers was grossly unfair.
But it's the film which we are judging here and the trailer is pretty good. It feels fresh and original and thankfully it's not because of the colour of the soldiers skin but because of the great characters that Lee depicts here. I also really digg the framing device of the film, which I always thought was under utilized in Saving Private Ryan."I'm the only one left who knows".
What a great line, what superb delivery.
MIRACLE AT ST. ANNA tells the story of four black American soldiers who get trapped in a Tusan Village in Italy during 1944 and it's due out in September.
