A movie about a major Canadian battle, only we forgot to have any Canadians.
18 October 2021
I was waiting for this movies release and was pleasantly suprised at its quality and realism. I can't help asking though, how do you manage to make a movie about one of the gruelest campaigns on the Western Front and fought almost exclusively by the Canadian Army, and manage to not have a single Canadian in it? It's like making Pearl Harbour without any Americans or Battle of Hastings without the English. Thankfully you put a couple of Brits in it as a stand in for an entire Canadian Army so I guess it's OK. What a slap in the face to the memory of all the real soldiers who fought and often died in that battle.
