Must See

If there is one particulare genre of movie that I enjoy more than all the rest it would have to be war movies. Not entirely sure why that is, but I went to see Rescue Dawn last week. Simply put, I highly recommend that this movie immediately be moved to the top of your "must see" list. Many times the tag line "based on a true story" can be a warning for an overly dramatized rendition of a story that is no longer indicitive of the event being portrayed. Not the case here.
Plot Line from IMDb: This film tells the real-life story of U.S. fighter pilot Dieter Dengler, a German-American shot down and captured in Laos during the Vietnam War. Dengler organized a death-defying escape for a small band of POWs, including Duane Martin
