"The navigator of the LRDG's Rhodesian unit was Mike Sadler, a quiet, unassuming, and exceptionally intelligent twenty-one-year-old. Born in Gloucestershire, Sadler was working on a farm in Rhodesia when war broke out. He immeadiately downed tools and signed up with an artillery unit, wich was later deployed to North Africa."

OMG, an Impressive Film!

The Six Triple Eight on Netflix is a marvelous movie that left my face hot from glowing (not my usual reaction to this director’s work). The story of these WWII hidden figures was well served. And Kerry Washington shines in it like a beacon and makes at least three very forceful, authoritative speeches.

Watching this, I found my resistance softening and my heart swelling with pride. Although it follows a well-worn, straightforward path, it delivers all the feels and will stir curiosity about these soldiers. Despite difficulties, these soldiers made a way out of no way with purpose, integrity, and ingenuity (or that seems to be the impression that is intended as a viewer’s takeaway). The only thing I’m sorry about is that Six wasn’t a multi-episode series, allowing it to last longer, delve deeper, and even go beyond its timeframe.

Would make a lovely companion piece to the recent Masters of the Air series or to Spike Lee’s underrated Miracle at St. Anna.
