Description

FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS
On the frontline, there's no time for fear. For 70,000 marines who fought with bombs blasting and guns blazing, the bloody battle for Iwo Jima was more than the turning point of World War II; it was the defining moment in their lives. In the epic that The New York Times calls "a sweeping spectacle," Academy Award-winning director Clint Eastwood taps into the single greatest emotional truth of warfare: soldiers may fight for their country, but they die for their friends. Hailed by critics as "a film of awesome power and blistering provocation, an amazing fear". Flags of our Fathers is a powerful true story of heroism and bravery that should be shared and remembered.

LETTERS from IWO JIMA
From Academy Award winning director Clint Eastwood comes the untold story of the Japanese soldiers who defended their homeland against invading American forces during World War II. With little defense other than sheer will and the volcanic rock of Iwo Jima itself, the unprecedented tactics of General Tadamichi Kuribayashi and his men transform what was predicted to be s swift defeat into nearly 40 days of heroic and resourceful combat. Their sacrifices, struggle, courage and compassion live on in the taut, gripping film Rolling Stones calls "unique and unforgettable".
