Review of 71: Into the Fire (2010) by James-Masaki R — 21 Apr 2011
The North Korean troops were marching through the south all the way toward Pusan. While the South Koreans and the Allied troops were fighting on the front lines, 71 student soldiers were left at an abandoned girls' middle school to wait. When the North Koreans change tactics and go toward the school instead, the kids are left to fend for themselves, for their country.
Really powerful film, which most war movies are, but this unknown story to most of the world is great. Incredible war scenes, even some comedy with the interaction with the students, and eventually at the end, some interviews with the survivors. Recommended highly.
