Country:  | Yep, my favourite movie.
It was a long time dream of Zdenek Sverak, the producer and movie director, to make this movie in memory of Czech pilots serving in RAF during WW2.
Would you believe that our goverment put less money into this project than Germany???What a shame!!!!

Country:  | WOW. I've never seen it. I wonder what percentage of the plane footage is CGI. It looked like they were putting a few of those old planes through some heavy moves.

1/6 of the footage were tricks.
B-25 was real and a lot of air to air footages were made from this machine...

Country: | The nose cannon in the "109" flashes at the same rate as the machine guns in the wings... and we never hear cannon booming just the guns rattling..
fun to watch though
Nice trailer: YouTube - Dark Blue World - trailer

Saw "My Life as A Dog" there along with "Dark Blue World". Both movies was pretty good. | |
