A war film podcast by a Marine veteran, a film critic, and a theater director. War is Hell, people make films about it, and we love to talk about them.

This weeks episode is about THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS, which takes place during the rarely seen French and Indian War in North America. It is one of director Michael Mann’s favs and the most recent of 11 screen versions of the James Fenimore Cooper novel.

We recorded our first Patreon guest episode today for our Patreon feed! It's unique, one of my favorites, and I cannot wait for everyone to listen.

Today we discussed THE IMITATION GAME (2014)! Part biopic, part historical drama, this film tells the story of Alan Turing and the team at Bletchley Park whose work led to the breaking of the German Enigma machines.

Recording a new episode tonight! This time we are covering a little known film that, well, we have some feelings about. 😆
In this episode we examine the groundbreaking film SAVING PRIVATE RYAN with a nuanced discussion about the impact it had on our culture, the characters' search for humanity in violent chaos, and what we really think Spielberg was trying to say.

Tonight we are recording an upcoming Patreon entry for you folks! It's a classic that just barely qualifies for our show, but who cares. It's a good time. #podcast
Put on your best pair of swashbuckling sandals, grab your probably not completely period-appropriate sword, and start rowing as the Danger Close team sets the record straight on the classic of the silver age of cinema, THE VIKINGS (1958)!

Watching Gettysburg in prep for the next @DangerClosePod. The movie, specifically the soundtrack, dredges up some deep feels. The strategy game tie (with movie special features) in was the first game I remember spending hours playing with my Dad. Must've been about 1st grade.
Come check out our Patreon with this week's episode about the truly terrible DAMNATION ALLEY! Only $4 a month to hear us dish about our favorite (or least favorite films) that are at least tangentially related to war.
