Masters of the Air (2024)
Masters of the Air
A beautiful series that gives an insight into how the Americans conducted the air war against Germany during the Second World War.
It was impressive that all the difficult facets of war were shown, including the major losses and what that did to the men. The prisoner of war camps, but also the extermination camps.
What I thought was a shame was the unnecessary blasphemous language. Swearing is more "common" these days, in the 1940s there was much less swearing and if foul language was used, it was not blasphemous language. Normally I stop a film or series if there is too much swearing in it, the fact that I finished watching the series is due to the storyline and the piece of history of my own country.
Christmas at the Palace (2018)
details are not correct
In itself a nice Christmas movie, but there are some details that are not right. I live in a country with a monarchy myself. There are always protocols where the royals, and those who meet them, have to adhere. Also, the royals never set off without surveillance, as in countries with a president, the president and his family will never walk without supervision between the public. Agreements, such as a banquet with high-ranking, at the last cancellation will only occur in extreme necessity. A year-long personal secretary, does not really let his master down. And last but not least, an ice skater who has not stood on the skate for years, can not ride a ice show without first practicing. Again a nice Christmas movie, which I enjoyed, but sloppy in the details.
