I don't know, but I get the impression that this is entirely focused on the evacuation, yes? The John Mills movie had a good deal of action as his platoon fought their way to the beach, as I recall.

If it can focus on the historical action and be truthful to real events, I think I will like it.

If they "Hollywoodize" it and play around with the truth, insert a love triangle, over-politicize it (especially modern political commentary), etc., I will be much less interested.

I thought I saw something about this, now it's confirmed. I agree with Mike Abberton. I hope it focuses on the event itself and honor the soldiers.
