To be fair, there are a lot of teachers who can make WW2 as exciting as watching paint dry. I learned about Dunkirk in school, but what made me excited about WW2 history (and the event) was the video game Secret Weapons Over Normandy.

As for the film being discussed here, I still haven't seen it, it's not on HBO, Starz or any of my other 'free' channels yet.

+1 years later I found back some parts of a blown up Sherman that made it up to the flat roof of our garage; I also remember "launching" a spitfire from my room window, using firework streakers attached below the wings, the whole room smelling like a burning exhaust, I was excited, my mom didn't shared my point of view :-) what a great childhood we had!!
