  • Actor Mark Rylance earned an Academy Award for his portrayal of a Soviet spy in the movie "Bridge of Spies." Rylance returns to the big screen for World War II drama "Dunkirk" about the rescue of more than 300,000 British and Allied soldiers from the beaches of Dunkirk in northern France. The film is being considered an early Oscar contender. Rylance joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss his new role and the real-life heroism that inspired the movie.

      SPOILERS: -The boy that dies, George, isn't one of his sons.- However, they do mention that one of Mr. Dawson's sons was in the RAF, and was killed in action early in the war. This matches up with Lightoller, who's youngest son was one of the first British serviceman killed in the war. His oldest was one of the last.

    I just saw "Don't Look Up" this week... and I'm stunned that *Rylance played Peter Isherwell!* I mean he DISAPPEARED into the character! He's unrecognizable. Literally, I just now put this together, like "WAIT A MINUTE!" (a few Google minutes later...) "HOLY CRAP! IT'S THE SAME GUY!!" I feel like someone could scrape me off the floor right now like a used piece of gum. What a fun discovery I just made! I hope other people know about this.
    Verrry similar moment back when I realized Mindhunter's Ed Kemper was the same guy as The Umbrella Academy's Hazel. They're both played by Cameron Britton, who blows my mind with his wide acting range!
    Super awesome when this happens. :)

      @Jared_Wignall 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      In the movie, when they’re waiting for the civilian ships to arrive and when they arrive, you can hear gun fire, which is the French shooting at the Nazis. The film is supposed to be about putting you in the situation of the British trying to get home as well as those doing what they can to help those stuck on the beach, be it by boat or plane, not about the French holding the lines. So, while you don’t really see the French holding the line against the Germans after the beginning of the movie, you can hear them shooting near the end of the movie.

      About of third of arms came back. The BEF was only 9% of all allied troops. The Luftwaffe were largely kept away from the beaches, why so many sailed home after being ordered to fall back to Dunkirk. The RAF over the Dunkirk pocket lost less planes than the Luftwaffe. The beat the Luftwaffe. The first showing in numbers of the Spitfire.

      Some good points here, which I see little of in the discussion. The German Army was some 2 1/2 million strong that attacked Belgium and France. The French were by far the largest Army and had overall control and command of the Allied force. Their army was some 3 million strong, and was manly based in the Maginot line.
      After the collapse of the French Army defending Belgium, the British Army was simply too small to deal with the Germans on their own. There was no way the British Army could mount an effective counter attack from Dunkirk, or hold out should the full force of the German Army be sent against them after the fall of France, which was inevitable.
      The French consider the evacuation of Dunkirk as a betrayal to this day. Wonder how it will be seen in France.

      @@danielw5850 - A major gripe of many of the French troops evacuated at Dunkirk was that they were kept in England and not returned to France. We can see now that this was the best option as these troops were involved in liberating Paris some 4 years later.
      For any French national this period is difficult to say the least. They would not have the triumph of the Battle of Britain to sweeten the pill.
      Sadly though, the reasons for their defeat and abject humiliation lay very close to home

    According to the official record most of the "small ships" sailed from Ramsgate or ports closer to Dunkirk. Can anyone confirm whether boats came from Weymouth. Despite this Weymouth is a lovely town but I doubt that I will visit there again

The Americans knew what the Japanese we’re doing to the Chinese people 5 years prior to Dec. 7, 1941and that’s why we interned them. You say what a horrible thing we did with the bomb ask the relatives of the Chinese people who managed to survive if it was horrible thing.

      4catsnow if the Panzers kept moving the Panzers would have suffered heavy losses their supply lines were over extended and they had no infantry they would have been easy targets for the BEF. Also the British are an island smaller than Idaho yet controlled 1/3rd of the World and have invaded and won wars against 90% of the worlds nations.
