I saw an incredible show on TV tonight called "Shooting War." It was about the soldiers who carried motion picture cameras with them into World War II. I felt amazed, in awe, sickened, frightened, and proud of many of the images and stories told here. It definitely was not for the faint of heart but it was a stirring look upon what war is. Although it is impossible to truly know about it without experiencing it, these films showed it better than Hollywood ever could.

Some of the filmmakers featured were Russ Meyer and John Huston. Tom Hanks hosted it and Spielberg produced it.
