He identified the unit, then the date it was filmed, went through the archives and found the dispatch. As if that wasn't enough, found someone from the same area of England the soldier was from to do the voice. Just floored.

Went out ...I really appreciate this recommendation. Went out last night and caught the last 3D showing at my theater and was blown away. A true Wizard of Oz moment watching the footage transform into color. I was really astounded by the impact of seeing the faces of the soldiers clearly. Made everything so personal to hear their voices and see the lives and personalities behind their eyes. <br /><br />Only one other person stayed for the making-of doc at the end, but we both laughed when Peter Jackson talked about bringing out his artillery from storage to so sound effects "as you do." <br /><br />Very glad I saw it on the big screen and in 3D. Interested to see what they can do with a physical media release.

Its incredible.<br /><br />Lucky for anyone who has yet to see it on a big screen: Its getting a limited released in 150 markets (or more) or February 2nd per Warner Bros! I dont believe those will be Fathom events, but rather a genuine release. But I cant guarantee that.

So glad I did and thank you for always championing the good stuff! So fortunate to actually feel the bombs in a packed theater.

It really makes you realize that Peter Jackson is the only person on the planet that could pull this off. In addition to his weapons collection, the multitude of different uniforms he has gathered added another layer of depth and exactitude that I would not have picked up on if I had only watched the film. Also, how bout that closing song!
