On the eve of Hurricane Irma, my wife and I finally got around to seeing Christopher Nolan’s mesmerizing 2017 film Dunkirk at Regal Cinema in Winter Park. This movie is a masterpiece. Among other things, it brought to our mind Ernest Hemingway’s classic sentence in The Old Man in the Sea: “But man is not made for defeat. A man can be destroyed but not defeated.”
Is it is great movie.
I was literally on the edge of my seat the whole time, especially during the air scenes. (Also, I have to confess, I was in tears when one of the survivors was reading Winston Churchill’s famous speech.)
