Synopsis
| Clint
Eastwood's adaptation of the non-fiction book Flags of Our Fathers
concerns the lives of the men in the famous picture of soldiers raising
the American flag over Iwo Jima during that historic WWII battle.
Battle scenes are intercut with footage of three of the soldiers -
played by Ryan Phillipe, Jesse Bradford, and Adam Beach -- who survived
the battle going on a goodwill tour of the United States in order to
sell war bonds. Many evening they are forced to reenact their famous
pose, something each of them finds more and more difficult to do as
they suffer from survivor's guilt. Eastwood frames the story by having
one of the men's grown son (Tom McCarthy) interview his father's old
comrades in order to find out more about what happened to his father.
Eastwood followed this film with Letters from Iwo Jima, a second film
about the battle of Iwo Jima, but told from the Japanese perspective. |
