mrvmaxLong weekend movie suggestions….
I had never seen “6 Days” and just watched it and enjoyed it. I am pretty familiar with the actual events and it was free to watch on YouTube (with the free 7day trial of Paramount +). I’ll take a flick based on actual events anytime over total fiction. Yes, even those based on actual events are a far cry from all truth but at least there is some basis behind the story. I will probably view the actual news footage just to see SAS on the balcony setting off charges.
Any YouTube movie suggestions for the long weekend? What are you watching this weekend?

RogueJSKIf military history or the Napoleonic Wars interest you, all 14 of the "Sharpe's Rifles" episodes are on YouTube:

ZSMICHAELI have seen Zulu more than once. Flying tigers with John Wayne is pretty good as well.

mrvmaxThanks for the suggestions. This SAS guy is pretty entertaining as he recalls their Sierra Leone mission.

mikeyspizzaThe series Turn, about the Revolutionary War and spies, is now avail on Netflix and I really enjoyed it. 4 seasons of 8-10 episodes each.
