4 thoughts on “Oliver Stone’s untold history of the United States”
—-Woefully incomplete –and begining about 50 years too late.
Even by Stone’s ’80’s Show’ staleness and ‘decadence’ standards
—–this is STALE.
And so yet another disappointment from the capstone authorized
‘RA’–dick–CULL’ —-Olver Stone.
OLIVER —-CAP! ——STONE.
What a terrific piece of documentary film-making — compelling and informative.
An hour long, but well worth the time.
It’s a series. That was the first one.
American history has always been a Disney movie. I don’t know about
other countries, but our system seems wallow in fairy tales at every
point of its history.
This is a fair picture of what went on during the period. The opening
of the theatre in Africa was disgraceful, as we joined the British to
ruthlessly hunt down…. Italians, avoiding Germans like the plague.
By the way Oliver forgot to mention the total betrayal of the French by
the British. The Baldwin government promised massive support in
any move by the Germans but that the French should avoid building up
defense to appease Hitler. When the invasion came the British defense
contribution was ….. sinking of the French fleet so Germany wouldn’t get the ships. They didn’t really fire a shot. Perfidious Albion I believe its called. Oliver should have brought this part up as well.
