Bob lets the Marines tell their stories, which begin with their induction into the Marine Corps and end with their homecoming after the war. But the focus is on Okinawa. Each Marine has something different to say, and they all combine for a moving and fascinating portrayal of the battle. The interviews, which are the highlight of the film, are supplemented with superb photos and newsreels of the battle. The film won the Marine Corps Heritage Award for Best Feature Documentary in 2015. |
