topdog1961 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 This weekend I watched a really good documentary on Netflix for anyone interested in the Vietnam War, jungle survival, or a remarkable man with an indomitable human spirit. "Little Dieter Needs to Fly". Dieter Dengler decided as a small boy that he needed to fly as his German hometown was being strafed by Allied fighters in WWII. When he turned 18 he left Germany for America with 30 cents in his pocket. He joined the USAF, worked as a cook, earned his citizenship, graduated college, got a commission, and became a Skyraider pilot over Vietnam. If that itself isn’t a good enough story, he was shot down in 1967 and endured months of torture in a jungle POW camp. He escaped along with several others and was the only one to make it out after months in the jungle. He returns to Vietnam and Laos, and relives much of the ordeal in this well done documentary by Werner Herzog. It’s only about an hour long and well worth your time. Link to post Share on other sites

Bob Blair Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Saw one on a plane recently that I thought was really excellent. The movie is called "Lucky" and it stars 91 year old (really) Harry Dean Stanton as a WWII vet living in a small desert town. Curmudgeon would be an understatement to describe Stanton's character. He's still seeking the meaning of life even at his advanced age and I think he finds at least a portion of his own purpose in the end. Especially poignant because it is the last role Stanton played before his death and he never even saw the movie released. Highly recommended as a nice feel good beak.
