![]() ![]() “Flags of Our Fathers” argues, not without reason, that the Rosenthal photograph electrified public opinion, and the money those men raised turned the financial tide. The film told me something I did not know: Domestic enthusiasm for the war was becoming exhausted, funds were drying up, the government had run out of lenders. Eastwood depicts him as focused on fantasy over substance and indifferent to news that there was an earlier flag-raising, but in fact he is doing his job, which is to hold the three together, present an appropriate image and help the war effort by raising money. Their PR man is Keyes Beech ( John Benjamin Hickey), who from the later 1940s through Vietnam would be the Pacific correspondent for the famed Chicago Daily News Foreign Service. And Hayes, a Pima Indian, revolts against the idea of being cheered and wants only to return to action. Of the men, Bradley, a Navy corpsman, is the spokesman, repeating in city after city, “the heroes are the men we left behind.” Gagnon enjoys the fame and the attentions of a sexy girl friend determined to become his wife. They raise some $26 million, not without personal conflict. ![]() Stateside, they are given a press agent to manage their tour and be sure they say the right things and project the right image to raise desperately-needed money to fund the war. These were John " Doc" Bradley ( Ryan Phillippe), Rene Gagnon ( Jesse Bradford) and Ira Hayes ( Adam Beach). The men themselves knew who they were, and were not, but no one really wanted to know the truth three of them were later killed, and three others were brought home to headline a national tour to sell U. Nor were those who raised the first flag credited, because the official story was that there was only one event. The men who raised the flag were hailed as heroes, but who precisely were they? No faces were visible. His good luck is underlined because the camera required a plate change after every shot. And “snapped” is the correct word he aimed his big Speed Graphic and clicked the shutter without framing or focusing, and obtained a perfectly-composed, iconic picture. The second flag raising was the one snapped by AP photographer Joe Rosenthal, whose photograph became arguably the most famous ever taken. Yes, there were two, after the first flag was taken down and kept by a politician as a souvenir. One of the baffling realities of the battle was that a machine-gun emplacement could be “cleaned out” by grenades or flame throwers, and then, re-manned by tunnel, become active again.Įastwood focuses particularly on the soldiers who will be involved in the flag raisings on the island’s Mount Suribachi. We learn in the second film that they did it mostly by hand. ![]() “How did they dig these things?” one Marine asks. Their positions were linked by tunnels in the solid rock, and their big gun positions were shielded by steel doors that swung shut after every firing. The Japanese tactics, while ultimately doomed, were fearfully effective. On that first day, 2,000 lives were lost, almost all of them American. Then, after a tense prelude at sea, it focuses on the initial American landing, which was eerily quiet no Japanese fire was encountered on the beach, and troops advanced inland easily, until being ambushed by concealed enemy positions. All the major themes are being introduced, although we will discover that only later. The film opens with interlocking scenes from past and present, showing the battle underway and being remembered, with voice-overs from survivors. It was clear to them that without air or sea support they would be defeated their mission was to hold out as long as they could, and die. ![]() He joined it with another film, “ Letters from Iwo Jima,” about the Japanese experience a garrison of defenders tunneled into the rock of the island to create fortified positions. Eastwood’s ambitious and enormously effective film has three aims: To recreate the hell of the Battle of Iwo Jima, to explore the truth and meaning of the famous photograph of the flag being raised over the island, and to record the aftermath in the lives of the survivors. ![]()

Over the last six years, I have heard some astonishing songs made by acts in the UK who have been influenced by sounds made in Nashville or Texas, but no charts exists to try to find out which is best. These acts flourish in the live sphere and put out their music digitally to promote it consider the UK live country scene as a mobile version of the radio stations which presented acts singing live in the studio booth, like in O Brother, Where Art Thou? In any case, you know where to find their music online and, with any luck, this show will convert you to a fan of any act and you will tell three people about the act, one of whom becomes a fan and repeats the process. Because I do not have advertisers or, indeed, the bandwidth, this show will come in at a modest length. The American countdowns last four hours – with commercials. There is no ‘one’ kind of country music just as there is no ‘one’ kind of rock music these days.įor chart purposes, I am indebted to the likes of Casey Kasem and Bob Kingsley, and their production team, for giving me a template for a Top 40 countdown, while Pick of the Pops selects a set number of songs from that fortnight’s chart of a previous year and cannot fit in every song. Whether the act uses steel guitars and fiddles, or they create a palate of sound using programmed drums, if they classify themselves as a country act, they can have a song in this countdown. ![]() Country has many definitions, but if the acts themselves call themselves ‘country’ or are booked to play country club nights or festivals, or are profiled in country-leaning publications, or are played on a BBC local radio country show, they will be eligible for the countdown. The chart aims to reflect the diversity and munificence of country talent in the UK. In exceptional circumstances, ie if the act’s music has been played by a notable DJ or has had a life of its own through a viral video or recording, that track will be the act’s ‘single’. In the case of an EP, it will be the track they have chosen as the lead track. I will always list the most recent release, one which is referred to by an act as their ‘current single’. Cover songs are permitted, as acts often push cover versions on their social media feeds and Youtube channels. To ensure that many voices are heard, all artists are limited to one song as a lead artist in one chart. Acts who are on tour to promote their material will also have their songs move up the chart in any given season. Particular emphasis is placed on radio play on key outlets such as the BBC, Absolute Country or Chris Country, as well as mentions on go-to websites like Belles & Gals, Lyric Magazine and Your Life in a Song. The richness of the scene and the many active bands in it mean filling 40 places is a cinch I could easily have done a top 100 but this show would run for hours.īroadcast in March, June, September and December with a Festive Fifty, this Top 40 uses a variety of sources to count down the biggest songs by country acts who live and work in the UK. ![]() With that in mind, and with festival bills filling up by the day, I will put out a chart at the start of every season bigging up UK country.

![]() ![]() However, I'm enjoying Hollywood's anime trend and am anxious to see what they're going to do with Cowboy Bebop. ![]() Unfortunately both Dragonball and this adaptation are at Fox, which isn't a good sign so far, but maybe they'll find a good director. I think it's the perfect series to adapt, but like Dragonball, I worry that it may get screwed up in translation if it falls into the wrong hands. It is easily one of the most popular mainstream anime series and is beloved by many people even if they're not hardcore anime fans. Sony released a full-length animated film titled Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heavens Door in 2001 where it was greeted with immense praise from fans worldwide. The series follows the adventures of a group of bounty hunters traveling on their spaceship, the Bebop, in the year 2071. The show first aired in Japan in early 1998 and was brought over to America in 2001 on Adult Swim. The photo to the right comes from Bam Kapow's gallery of Faye Valentine costumes. And if you're wondering who Faye Valentine is, she's one of the main character's in the series and a fan favorite. Dick, and that was our big concern here." Don't get confused, this does not mean that they're going for a similar animated look like A Scanner Darkly, as he explicitly said that it's going to be live-action. When I met with them in Japan, one of the first things that I brought up was the experience that we had on A Scanner Darkly, and how hard we worked to remain faithful to Philip K. "I have such an enormous admiration for its creators, that our first and foremost concern is going to be a real degree of faithfulness to the tone of the movie, to the mix of genres, and so on and so forth. Stoff goes on to explain his enthusiasm for the project and their attempts to remain faithful. I'm not exactly a big fan myself, but considering Hollywood is caught up in the anime trend, I'm definitely excited to see this one come to life as well. We just signed it the other day." If you're not so familiar with Bebop, it's an incredibly popular Japanese anime TV series that first aired back in 1998 and has become a hit here in the US as well as Japan. Apparently it's very fresh news: "I'm really excited to be working on it, and it's in the really early stages. IF Magazine talked with veteran producer Erwin Stoff (via AICN) and discovered that he's working on making a live-action Cowboy Bebop movie with Fox. Nemec serves as showrunner.All your Faye Valentine fantasies are finally going to come true… if you have any at least! Following Akira and Ghost in the Shell announcements, apparently Cowboy Bebop is in for a live-action adaptation as well. Original anime series director Shinichirō Watanabe is a consultant on the series, and original composer Yoko Kanno returns to score the live-action adaptation.Ĭowboy Bebop is executive produced by André Nemec, Jeff Pinkner, Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg of Midnight Radio, Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements of Tomorrow Studios, Makoto Asanuma, Shin Sasaki and Masayuki Ozaki of Sunrise Inc., Tim Coddington, Tetsu Fujimura, Michael Katleman, Matthew Weinberg, and Christopher Yost. Production on Cowboy Bebop wrapped in March. The highly-anticipated live action adaptation has experienced delays over the course of production due to Cho’s on-set injury, which put the show out for seven to nine months. Cowboy Bebop also features Geoff Stults, Tamara Tunie, Mason Alexander Park, Rachel House, Ann Truong and Hoa Xuande. Netflix’s images also reveal the Bebop in its mechanical glory, Ein the experiment-turned-pet Corgi and a key scene between Spike and nemesis Vicious, who will be played by Alex Hassell.

I have no issue with their health, but they should be more reliant on their friendly fighters to escort them. This obviously makes not a whole lot of sense. You have basically fighters and armored fighters with bombs. Until this gets addressed, the game is pretty boring. The range of their guns coupled with the inability to climb efficiently whatsoever means they will often times try to chase you down. I find myself dying more to them than enemy fighters. Which wouldn’t be an issue, except for the fact that they are also very strong. Bombers are very armored and take a long time to kill. This is due to the fact that climbing drains your speed so quickly that you can’t take advantage of the higher speed. The only benefit is essentially higher DPS.
