I made up my mind, Nix. I got the points, I'm going back to Kitty.

FAQ
Isn't the fighting in and around Carentan unrealistic? I mean, the German paratroopers and Waffen-SS were elite formations after all.The British tank commander says that they cannot destroy private property. Was there an order to that effect?
What's the classical music played at the beginning and end of episode 9?

Band of Brothers is a brilliant mini series about W.W. II.It tells the story of Easy company,a group of soldiers who fought in this terrible war.The first couple of episodes are about the drill of the men,the drill-sergeant is played by David"Ross from Friends"Schwimmer(not quite Full Metal Jacket).Then the company gets dropped on D-Day in Normandy where we follow their moves.The serie ends with an episode after the war when we see the company,or what is left of it,"relaxing" at a lake and thinking over this dreadful period. BoB is very realisticly filmed with great acting,although there are no big names in it.Maybe that is why it is so realistic. The series is produced by Tom Hanks(directed 1 episode) & Steven Spielberg,so it couldn't miss. And it doesn't,all 10 episodes are of very high quality,from the training in peaceful areas to a big shootout in the woods of Belgium and from fights in my own country Holland(with actual Dutch actors!) to a grueling episode about a concentration camp.
After Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan this is another realistic and good project from Spielberg and co. 10/10
