Hollywood At War
“Each location in a movie is the ‘other actor’ an audience pays to see.”
Hollywood brought the human experience of World War Two to the silver screen well before America’s involvement. Since then, WWII subject matter has given movie goers a countless array of action flicks, dramas, biographies, comedies and love stories. Oscar winning director and U.S. Army Air Corps Lt. Col. William Wyler once said, “Each location in a movie is the ‘other actor’ an audience pays to see.” As an added bonus for our Military Sites audience, our cameras showcase fascinating places from popular WWII movies.
