Review of The Blue Max (1966) by Luc D — 15 Sep 2008
I would probably say this is the best WW1 movie ever made (along with Gallipoli) as it shows all the aspects of war. Greed, bravery, lust, ambition, foolishness, public image and utter desperation.
Fantastic flying sequences (and a legendary bridge scene).
Loved the film as a kid but never understood the full story - the incredibly tense final scene showing the complex world of military cover ups, lies and the dark side of propaganda.
