Most heros are modest.
Movies have a way of drawing one into the action. In the cowboys movies I always ducked when the Horses OR Wagons came straight out of the screen.
True to action WW2 movies have the same effect on Combat veterans. Since I have seen the death campps like Buchenwald I can watch with concern. Others have a hard time seeing the walking skeletons. That did not bother me, It was the odor of the live camp that got me, it ddoesn,t come thru in movies or TV.
I can not exprres synpathy for Germans OLd enough to have lived thru WW2. Like Americans they supported their leader. That was a wrong choice.
