| Hollywood does not have an obligation to educate young people thru movies. I'm with Sherman get em books. Educate them thru schools,not cinema.
I learned about WWII thru reading and in classes and by talking to my Uncles who served in that war, one was a Navy Corpsman with Beach Party on Omaha (those were the guys with the Arch type banners on their steel pots). I could not ask him what he thought of the movie as he passed on a couple years before.
I don't feel that Hollywood realistically portrays WWII, or Korea, or Vietnam or any war. But that is not their business. Their business is to put butts in seats and make entertaining and profitable movies.
