War - Flags of Our Fathers

From Academy Awards winning director Clint Eastwood ("Million Dollar Baby," "Unforgwen") comes the World War II drama "Flags of Our Fathers," produced by Eastwood, Academy Award winner Steven Spielberg ("Saving Private Ryan"/ "Schindler's List"), and Rob Lorenz ("Mystic River").

February 1945. Even as victory in Europe was finally within reach, the war in Pacific raged on. One of the most crucial and bloodiest battles of the war was the struggle for the island of Iwo Jima, which cultimanated with what would become one of most iconic images in history: five Marines and a Navy corpsman raising the American flag on Mount Suribachi.

The inspiring photo capturing the moment became a symbol of victory to a nation that grown weary of war and made instant heroes of the six American soldiers at the base of the flag, some of whom would die soon after, never knowing that they had been immortalized. But the surviving flag raisers had no interest in being held up as symbols and did not consider themselves heroes; they wanted only to stay on the front with their brothers in arms who were fighting and dying without fanfare or glory.

“Flags of Our Fathers" is based on the bestselling book by James Bradley with Ron Powers which chronicled the battle of Iwo Jima and the fates of the flag raisers and some of their brothers In Easy Company Bradley’s father, John "Doc" Bradley, was one of the soldiers pictured raising the flag, although James never knew the full extent of his father’s experiences until after the elder Bradley’s death in 1904.
