Was Joe Biden's uncle eaten by cannibals during World War II? (usatoday.com) Biden's telling differed from an account published by the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency, which says Biden's uncle, Ambrose Finnegan, and two other men "failed to emerge from the sinking wreck and were lost in the crash."

Witcher will be 5 seasons long. I finished re-reading Tower of the Swallow and am re-doing the final book Lady of the Lake.

That's kind of how I imagine Dantes as written by Dumas'. As the Count he is a 19th century version of rockstar with his charismatic side. As a young man before prison he is supposed to be attractive person & a winner.

Its too bad that Napoleon didn't work out since both the director and the lead actor had credentials from previous work.

An 8 episode series is more appropriate to the length and complexity of the story. It is interesting how they casted a good looking guy, age appropriate. The other French series was book accurate but they casted an old dude that looked too severe and charmless to me:

Pretty much every major German WW2 movie The Bridge, Stalingrad 1993, Generation War (very hamfisted), etc. plus the films about extremely minor characters in the grand scheme of things like Sophie Scroll etc. The choice of topics is quite obvious that they would never do a serious historically movie/show work from an authentic German army's point of view due to contemporary politics. Outside of Der Untergang (Downfall) which I like the rest are marred with artificial writing. The way the 'German band of brothers' (Generation War) was written compared to "Band of Brothers" is like night & day. American movies from the German POV also have a huge ahistorical distortion and a hamfisted artificial message about 'the Good German vs. the Nazi' due to Cold War era politics and afterwards - All Quite on the Western Front, Valkyrie, Bridge from Remagen, The Desert Fox, Iron Cross etc. In western films they will often put in a 'Good German' vs the Nazi character- eg. Schindler's List & the Pianist to balance things out.

Pretty pathetic and very corrupt- as only 13.8 Billlion of the 60 Billion is for equipment and ammunition for Ukraine. The US 155mm artillery shell has so much price inflation that last time I checked it was an absurd $8,000 a round. $11.3 Billion for continued US support- probably ISR & logistics. Ukraine is rated CC, heading to default on its debt even with all the aid.
