An Introduction...
Hi
Just joined.
Particularly interested in films - those made during WWII and subsequently. How different countries portray the war, and how this has changed over time.
I have recently contributed a chapter on Joseph Goebbels and Nazi Propaganda for Ian Allan Publishing's Under Fire: A Century of War Movies ( Under Fire: A Century of War Movies)

Re: An Introduction...
Welcome Ellen. While I am thinking about it, I have a question for you, if I may. As a kid, I remember watching the first film adaptation of James Jones "A Thin Red Line" on TV (Black & White) Movie Reviews for The Thin Red Line, Information and Film Reviews for The Thin Red Line the Movie As we know, a new version was released in 1998. But over the decades, I have not seen a single trace of the 1964 version with Jack Warden. I would have liked to compare the old with the new versions. I remember I liked the old movie as a kid. But it is almost like it got wiped off the face of the Earth. Any ideas? Thanks, and again, welcome to the forum.
Greg C.

Re: An Introduction...
Greg
It seems that the 1964 Thiin Red Line is only available in european territories and quite rare.
amazon.co.uk has a region 2 DVD for £35 + P&P
amazon.de has a VHS for 25euros
ebay.co.uk has eight copies on a buy it now from a dealer in Spain at £14.99 + p&p - again it is a region 2.
Hope this helps.

Re: An Introduction...
Ellen, welcome to the forums. I'm sure that by now you've reviewed the "WWII Films and TV" forum. Find anything interesting?
