Review of Flags of Our Fathers (2006) by Nick L — 13 Feb 2011

This rating is cross-listed with Letters from Iwo Jima. Being that both films were directed by Clint Eastwood and produced by Steven Spielberg, the imagery of what it was like to sell the idea of War bonds in a struggling economy to support a war was courageous.

I particularly enjoyed the heroic portrayal in the film, and how Ira (played by Adam Beach) wanted not to be looked as a hero but as a companion of those who deserved to be called heroes.
