This week Charles and Aaron look back at Batch Thirteen and talk about the evolution of “boat action” on screen. Who is in charge, how do they feel watching the young boys and men die under their command, and why does Master and Commander feel like a step backwards (in spite of the fact that we LOVE the movie)? It’s all here.

Chales and Aaron are back on the barky, this time with Gregory Peck pacing the quarter deck and a quarter of a million dollars in miniatures getting blown to smithereens. How do you produce sound after an era of silent films? How do you import Gregory Peck without violating British economic policy? How do you say "Horatio Hornblower" and keep a straight face? We don't have all the answers, but we DO have GREGORY PECK.

Charles and Aaron board the Surprise to talk about the neomacho, striping books of criticism for the sake of a simple story, and we revisit our conversation about child soldiers. “For England, for home, and for the prize!”

Charles and Aaron look back on the first batch of films for Season 2. They talk Patton (1970), The Admiral: Roaring Currents (2014), and Twelve O'Clock High (1949). Leadership in the air, on land, and at sea, death armies and impossible odds; don’t hold out hope for a trip home; because as we have said all batch: you are already dead.

“Americans traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. Americans play to win all the time.”
Season Two of The Reel War Project kicks off with 1970’s Patton. Charles and Aaron talk about a movie that celebrates as it criticizes, with additional looks at Nazi apologetics, Jacksonian militarism, and the soldier that never dies. Ten-hut!
