    I have half a thought for "The Heroes of Telemark" for the first one, but I'm not confident.

    Is B Ambush , the movie on the continuation war ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,968 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Sorry not Ambush
    Well not a great hint but this actor isn't a soldier but he works directly for one of the WWII leaders and sees him personally. Got appointed in 1939
    And views what goes on at the front and meets all the top brass officials

    Hint there if ye want it, don't read if not :)

    B is Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,221 ✭✭✭rednik


    B is Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo

    That would be correct.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,273 ✭✭✭Morlar


    It's been a few weeks, any more clues or should we flank around past the bazooka-boys and press on >?

    Ps It's not 'kelly's heroes' is it ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,221 ✭✭✭rednik


    Based on a true story, actor playing himself. Too easy :)
