The Tuskegee Airmen

Name: The Tuskegee Airmen scores 69 — Live Historic

Rating: 69

69Worth an evening.

Television-plain, and about the right men. The work is the flying. A house should know it.

Pass it on

The review

HBO told this in 1995, before the subject had been used as often. Cadets at Tuskegee are trained under white officers who have already decided what a Black pilot can and cannot do. The war in Europe is the test they asked for. The insult is that the test exists. The film's limit is the limit of a television movie: speeches arrive when a look would have done, and some of the men are types.

Watch it anyway, with a teenager, and then correct it with a name and a number. The 332nd Fighter Group. Escort work. Losses. Say that being denied a chance is a wrong, and that the answer in this story was not a speech about the wrong. It was the airplane, flown well, in a war that would take the flying from anyone it could use.

Live Historic number 69. Yours can differ.

The glance

Piety is the thin one.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Letters from Iwo Jima

76 instead of 69

Letters from Iwo Jima is still a war film, and it scores 76 instead of 69. What you gain is household: The letters are how a household survives a man it will not see again.

The eight

8
Industry
Learning the airplane is the plot, and the standard is the same sky.
5
Household
The barracks is the household. Home is what they are trying to be worthy to return to.
4
Piety
A funeral and a pride. Faith is present as dignity more than as prayer.
8
Courage
They fly into an argument that hopes they will fail. Going up anyway is the courage.
8
Republic
The republic wants their bodies and doubts their minds. The film keeps that contradiction in the room.
7
Temperance
It is not a spectacle. The losses are men, not effects.
7
Truth
A television film, smoothed, and still aimed at a true exclusion.
8
Stewardship
What it hands on is a unit a child should be able to name for the work, not only for the wrong.

Cenere

69Worth an evening.

A mother sees the son she gave up and leaves, so she will not ruin his life.

The review

She gave him up, and then she sees him again. A mother, a son, and a choice not to ruin the life he has. Eleanora Duse's only film. Italian, 1916, not an American gross. The face is why the picture was made. A house can watch it. I watched it hoping I would leave a hard meeting that cleanly, and I am not sure I would.

The leaving is the mercy. She does not spend his life to ease the meeting. That is a household doing a hard thing, not a famous face collecting a bow. The camera came for the face. I would keep the mercy. If the kids are up, the line is short: she meets him, and she will not break what he already has.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

Enoch Arden

79 instead of 69

Enoch Arden is still a drama film, and it scores 79 instead of 69. What you gain is industry: He is a sailor, and that wrecked work is why the years pass.
