Was watching an old movie (1965) with Frank Sinatra (also the director) and Clint Walker called "none but the brave" where they are marooned on an island during WW1 with a group of Japanese who are also marooned. Although truces are called from time to time at the end they are still at war. I really appreciated the last frame of the film, a pull back from the island with the caption: "nobody every wins." Its around time of another film with a similar message about the futility of war: "the Americanization of Emily" with Julie Andrews and James Garner. Wonder if we will ever have another time when it will be profitable to put anti-war films in big theaters. I hope so.
