My Grandad was there and he never said much about it, but he did say he spent 3 days under an upturned boat with his best friend who died from his wounds, he watched and held his friend as he died. Never forget the sacrifice those brave men made for us.
Watching Dunkirk was a soulful sucker punch to the gut, where do we find such extraordinary men? Manning the boats, those waiting on the beaches for rescue & those waiting at home for the desperate evacuation to return. Great Britain. Heroic people.
This is probably the best ww2 movie ever made. The rendition of Nimrod is superbly complimentary. As en ex Brit born in Woking, where the film ends, I feel emotional nostalgia for the great late ww2 generation. Best wishes from western Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
@@henryjohnfacey8213 No one was arbitrating anything Henry but thanks for the misrepresentation. I am sorry but what has St George got to do with Nimrod which is a British (not 'English') anthem? But, as it happens, yes I know St George was allegedly buried in Palestine. Totally irrelevant but whatever .....
Both my uncles where in the 51st one stayed behind to fight the other got away and went to India to go on to fight the Japanese,the one stayed behind got caught and was sent to a stalag and escaped before getting caught i am so proud and actually got to know one of my uncles before he passed god save the United Kingdom 🇬🇧
We were not prepared for the war we faced in 1939. It was pure British stubbornness and willingness to endure hardship that got us through and a little british ingenuity. We are even less prepared for the next one.
I am old and over the years I have never lost faith in the young of today understanding what these lads did for their grand parents, their parents and ultimately they themselves. Lately I must admit I worry that their heroism and sacrifice is getting lost in the mist of time and wokeism. To any youngsters of today that worry about their colour or their gender, more than what can happen in the horrors war. Please understand that life is not always easy, but it is precious. Be proud of who you are but do not forget what these lads and the ladies who fought did for you. Please do not ignore history. Look back into your own families history and I believe that somewhere in your family line you will see that sacrifice. You may well not be here today if it wasn't for them. LEST WE FORGET.

I would like to mention Captain Charles William Frederick Hope, Earl of Hopetoun (later the 3rd Marquess of Linlithgow) who served as an officer in the 51st Highland Division and was captured along with the rest of the Division at Dunkirk. He was held at Colditz Castle for the duration of the war. I held a summer internship at the stately home of the Hopes of Hopetoun (Hopetoun House) and learned of his story there.
The Pilot did indeed fight until out of fuel, did indeed land safely on the beach and set fire to his aircraft. However, the Boys did not let him fall into enemy hands. He made it safely back with the rest in reality.
With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children, England mourns for her dead across the sea. Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres. There is music in the midst of desolation And a glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted, They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them. They mingle not with their laughing comrades again; They sit no more at familiar tables of home; They have no lot in our labour of the day-time; They sleep beyond England’s foam. But where our desires are and our hopes profound, Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight, To the innermost heart of their own land they are known As the stars are known to the Night; As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust, Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain, As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness, To the end, to the end, they remain.
Brilliant film. Superb music. Excuse my ignorance, did they actually bomb a ship marked with a Red Cross evacuating wounded? Keeping the story alive. Lest we forget. 🦘🇦🇺👍
I'm not sure, but I have read that the Germans generally observed the rules of war in the West. In the East they committed atrocities per Hitler's orders. This does not mean that rogue soldiers didn't violate them now and then. In the West.

Wonderful voice and sung with great feeling. Exquisite filming and continuity. Surely one of the Great pieces of film ever. 🇬🇧
Yep, running through the undamaged streets of Dunkirk and the container cranes in the background.

Those men will never exist again on the planet earth that much is sure!
Amen
Only ONE of “The Few” still with us….(Dec ‘24) 🇬🇧
The spitfire scenes in this movie are sublime

Oh this is just stunning.
In my opinion, one of the most emotive, emotional and majestic pieces of music ever written. What an inspirational composer Elgar was.
May countries never forget the heroic soldiers who went to the field of war and gave their lives, may they be at peace in heaven!! 🌎🥇🕯🏳
AMEN
Well combined! Hats off! Their blood was the price of our peace, may peace prevail.
Anyone whose heart isn't pulled by the visuals let alone the superb vocals of Nimrod then they aren't British.
Not British but some of my ancestors were. I love this song.
Aren't Alive........
Not British.... and it's exquisite
Ho dear ! An arbitrator on what's British. If you don't know where St George is buried your not English.

Profoundly moving. Let us never forget these brave men of courage and dedication, and may they Rest in Peace in Paradise.

Most beautiful it fills your soul
So glad I found this today
Now part of my play list
Thanks

oh my god, it's a tremendously touching version
Crying my eyes out at 10am. So moving - the most beautiful music flowing over the horrors of war.
‘This movie & music grabs my heart. Brings me to tears every time. Bless their hearts. Her voice singling is absolutely beautiful
Oh my GOD!! Simply Divine !!
We owe them everything ❤
This is very haunting but brilliant.
Absolutely moving, and thought provoking

Well said sir 😊

The British Spitfire - one of the greatest aeorplanes of all time.
Jesus Christ that’s incredible. 🇬🇧
Nimrod is my inspiration.
🇬🇧❤beautiful voice and song...émotive...and sad
To allow this to happen the 51st Highland Division stayed behind.Allies were all one team and they took one for the team.
I would like to mention Captain Charles William Frederick Hope, Earl of Hopetoun (later the 3rd Marquess of Linlithgow) who served as an officer in the 51st Highland Division and was captured along with the rest of the Division at Dunkirk. He was held at Colditz Castle for the duration of the war. I held a summer internship at the stately home of the Hopes of Hopetoun (Hopetoun House) and learned of his story there.
One of many sacrifices that have went unrealised to allow the main body to regroup. They gave everything.
Please don't forget the French lions either
the 51st were treated horribly by the German soldiers and also the French POWs. The French were treated so much better than them.
Even in defeat we stood firm to regroup and to fight on, the whole country with us, we are British.
Brutal and sublime at the same time. Thank you. #Nimrod #Elgar
Very nice video !
Thank you !!
Rule Brittania, we shall never surrender
We live in such an emotive, yet incredibly vivid universe. God save the king!
The last movie that I saw in a theatre.
The Pilot did indeed fight until out of fuel, did indeed land safely on the beach and set fire to his aircraft. However, the Boys did not let him fall into enemy hands. He made it safely back with the rest in reality.
Absolutely sensational! Wonderful singing but Katherine Jenkins! Tom Hardy is a bit of alright too!
They were fed lies, then they were led into the slaughter.
With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children,
England mourns for her dead across the sea.
Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit,
Fallen in the cause of the free.
Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal
Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres.
There is music in the midst of desolation
And a glory that shines upon our tears.
They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
They mingle not with their laughing comrades again;
They sit no more at familiar tables of home;
They have no lot in our labour of the day-time;
They sleep beyond England’s foam.
But where our desires are and our hopes profound,
Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight,
To the innermost heart of their own land they are known
As the stars are known to the Night;
As the stars that shall be bright when we are dust,
Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain,
As the stars that are starry in the time of our darkness,
To the end, to the end, they remain.
Respect the weight these men carry, more often than not, in silence ❤
Tom Hardy always vomes through ❤
Brilliant piece of music! Goes so well with this powerful scene/film. Never forget! 💙
Pas facile de suivre l'histoire...
Think the beach is a bit empty. It would have been full of the detritus of war and thousands of people.

Ach what a pointless waste
and we never learn :(
So is your comment have some respect if nothing else. They fought for this generation and for lives and put themselves on the line.
@@maggiehattie No, these people were killed for literally no reason. Horrible pointless deaths because of cruel incompetent leaders
@@maggiehattie sorry my mistake, wrong war. This is the ww2 🙈
Hmmm.....no comments by Germans.......
Don’t mention the war! I think I did once and got away with it…
I'm not entirely sure why Nolan bothered his bollox. Thats not a criticism. Nor is it an indictment. I'm just not sure why he bothered.
Brilliant film. Superb music.
Excuse my ignorance, did they actually bomb a ship marked with a Red Cross evacuating wounded?
Keeping the story alive.
Lest we forget.

What else would you expect from the shitty Germans?
I'm not sure, but I have read that the Germans generally observed the rules of war in the West. In the East they committed atrocities per Hitler's orders. This does not mean that rogue soldiers didn't violate them now and then. In the West.
Are you for real. The Germans bombed everything that moved
