In the wide shots of the civilian fleet, a lot of those boats are the REAL boats borrowed from the Dunkirk museum

Not "borrowed from the Dunkirk Museum" (which, funnily enough, is in Dunkirk itself) Most of the boats in the civilian fleet were preserved by their owners, maintained as seaworthy vessels and passed down to their descendants. If they had just been kept in a museum for 70+ years they probably would have required a huge amount of restoration before they were seaworthy again.

My dad who was born 1911 was at Dunkirk, he escaped after having to swim to a small fishing boat and when he got back to England he was stopping in a big country house that had been opened to soldiers that were rescued, and while he was there the house got hit by a bomb he was found unconscious in the grounds of the house, he had been there for 3 days and it left him with chronic bronchitis so he was medically discharged from the army.

Dunkirk is a fantastic movie and story of British heroism during the War. They need to do a modern telling of the other great story of that time for the Brits, the Battle of Britain. Their perseverance and resilience to hold out until we joined the war is a something that cannot be forgotten.

In my home town, (Scarborough), there is a boat that took part in the evacuation still in use. All over the country there's boats still floating being preserved. Dunkirk was and is one of the proudest moments in our history for us British. It's tragic that military command didn't manage, (or were willing), to get more of the French troops out who were fighting off the Germans in the rear but many of us still remember how they fought with and for our boys and I for one, among many others won't forget the sacrifice of all the allies, military and civilians, who stood with us against Hitler and his fascist thugs.

More than 120 thousand French were evacuated from Dunkirk, the British had to leave their own wounded behind to make space for them as one stretcher took up as much space in a boat as three standing men. Wasted effort as it turned out because the majority of the French that were rescued returned to France a short time later to surrender. Only around 3000 opted to remain in Britain to continue the fight under de Gaulle.

My father was born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland. My great-Uncle George was assigned a rear guard at Dunkirk to slow the Nazi advance and was captured by the Germans. He spent 5 1/2 years in a Nazi POW camp. At the time the retreat and evacuation was recognized as one of Britain's most humiliating military defeats in centuries but is now, rightly so, seen as a miracle that so many (300,000) were rescued to fight another day. Thanks in large part to the civilians who answered Churchill's call and risked everything to save their soldiers.

As an American service member and lover of militarty history, the Battle for Britian and the courage and fortitude in the early days around Dunkirk and how close Europe was to collapse and the fall of everything we had gained throughout the last 300 - 400 years; then how they managed to hang in just long enough to turn the tide through nothing more than resilance under great leadership in the toughest times you can imagine. Truly one of the greatest stories in history. Hard to argue that it didnt save the world.

You can imagine how the British felt when they came back and landed at Sword beach on D-Day, also the lads in the gliders that took Pegasus Bridge, the very first allied troops to land in Normandy. Those who managed to escape at Dunkirk came back with a vengeance, particularly those who went on to fight in North Africa and Italy before being deployed for Normandy. They suffered so much to redeem themselves.

​@@alexfilma16 More accurate yes. However the way Nolan and his crew depicted the events at Dunkirk was still superior. It was accurate enough to overlook its "mistakes" and more than made up for it flaws with the characters, score, visuals and story. And damn, when the civilian ships show up, when Hardy takes out that last plane with no fuel and how distraught the returning soldiers are over feeling like failures only to be greeted by a thankful nation is tear inducing and so moving. Atonement is a fine film don't get me wrong, but out of the two, Dunkirk is the better war film

Glad you enjoyed it. My friends and I saw this in a Dome IMAX theater, and Nolan actually filmed the movie with special cameras specifically for dome theaters, where the whole screen covers all of your peripheral vision and the seats are on a pretty extreme slope. It was possibly the most visceral theater-going experience I've had. Total immersion. But it was worth it.

Most Americans don't know this story, because it happened before the USA was even in World War 2. At the time, it was such a morale booster for the British people-- think about 330,000 British soldiers who would have spent the war in a POW camp, and the local fishermen and pleasure sailors who risked their lives to go and save them, its truly heartwarming. the inspirational Churchill speech heard at the end of the film is one of his very best--here it is for you history buffs out there: "We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender. And even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the Old."

I live in the US and it was covered in history class when taught about WW2 when i was young (I am over 70 years old). I knew about it before that because both my mother and father enlisted after Pearl Harbor . My mother in the army(served in north Africa and Italy) and my father in the navy (served in the Pacific). Uncles also served in the army. I therefore was curious and read as much as I could about WW2 at a young age. I dont know what they teach in the schools in years after I graduated. If they still teach anything about WW2 in history class (and they should) it certainly should be mentioned because it wasnt some obscure incident.

​@@rocketduck44 he means because Dunkirk was technically a disastrous military defeat which was propagandized into a terrific PR victory after the fact. Part of Churchill's genius was turning our loss at Dunkirk into an inspiring tale of patriotism, sacrifice and dogged determination which inspired the British people to stand alone against the Germans when the rest of Europe had fallen. Hence his statement "no one knows how to lose like Britain", I'm guessing it was meant as a compliment, not as a slight against Britain's impressive military history.

Bit of music trivia for you: the soundtrack at the part where the little boats show up, and the reprise of that theme at the end, is taken from “Nimrod” by Edward Elgar, from his “Enigma Variations.” The piece is considered a masterpiece of English patriotic music, and it is well-known for being played annually in remembrance of the UK’s fallen soldiers of WWI and WWII.

I studied WWI and there was a moment when the soldiers, thousands of them, were retreating from the battle of Verdun. The soldiers were wounded and demoralized from the huge battle. Their train pulled up at a crossing and the civilians who were there stared in horrific wonder at the soldier. Suddenly, they understood what was happening and swarmed the cars offering whatever they had to thank the soldiers. The Battle of Verdun when on for nine months, about 24 years before the evacuation on Dunkirk.

Normally I'd like a movie based on real events to be as realistic as possible, but I'm actually glad they didn't have a bunch of blood and gore in this movie. I know war is a lot worse than depicted here, but using Nolan basically weaponized the build up of tension to create some intense anxiety. We didn't see people losing limbs or blood everywhere, but we still know that people died and got a glimpse of the psychological impact it had on the soldiers.

This is an excellent film, but while I understand the premise of having virtually no cgi, especially given the tone and approach Nolan was taking, it's the one modern film where I'd like to see CGI used at times. Dunkirk was apocalyptic, and only for the French holding the Germans at bay, the beach would have been overrun. That and Hitler's notorious decision to halt pressing the attack for a few days. That being said, it's beautifully shot. While the scope of the disaster is somewhat lost due to the lowkey nature of it, the ominous tone Nolan set throughout the film was excellent. I really loved the sound design too. I remember watching it at the cinema and the cannons on the Heinkel absolutely reverberated through me. That and the wailing of the Stuka were epic.

In a post-film commentary, Nolan admitted that he intentionally made it so you NEVER saw a Nazi soldier in this film (until the last scene obviously w Hardy being captured in that split second) as to heighten the tension of the enemies whereabouts. They could be here, there, anywhere..... a tactic you see pretty clearly thru the film.

You have people recommending 'Darkest Hour' as a follow-up to this film, but if you enjoyed this, you absolutely _need_ to watch '1917'. They are very much in a similar spirit, and I basically consider that film and this one to be an unofficial duology. Plus it's another film that makes incredibly effective use of sparse dialogue to showcase some powerhouse performances. I'll never cease to be amazed at how much Tom Hardy did in this film with just his eyes and upper body language.

@@CrazyHorseInvincible ye nolan and RatPac-Dune Entertainment are noturiously cheap and lazy. films like the fury road, the lego movie and gravity only did really well because the film makers dont bother putting any time or money into their projects.

@@NeilLewis77 I must have been trying to make some broad point about Nolan being cheap overall, despite him crashing an actual plane in this movie, rather than...the literal words that I typed.

@@CrazyHorseInvincible "they couldn't be bothered" were the literal words that you typed yes. So you definitely think them lazy. Which is silly. I apologise for assuming that you would think they were cheap too. But since you already hold one silly thought it wouldn't of surprised me if you thought the other, since cheap and lazy tend to go hand in hand.

@@CrazyHorseInvincible yep also the rc plane seen from the ground when farrier runs out of fuel, also the rc plane hitting the water that farrier shoots down seconds before. i get that ccgi can be immersion breaking but so can modern and missized objets in a period movie.

Hey Arianna, you should do a movie reaction to the "Indiana Jones" movies, starting with "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of The Lost Ark".

Not really, el Alamein was the first turning point for Britain, Stalingrad for Russia. You can't call the Dunkirk evacuation a turning point when we had just got our asses kicked and we were going to continue to get our asses kicked for another two years at least.

I really think his artistic vision held this film back, the time-stuff, the obsession with not using CGI which left it all looking weirdly empty and sparse, hundreds of people rather than hundreds of thousands, a few small boats instead of 800+. I see why they made those choices, just feel it could've been better with less artistically pure choices.

The french do not get the recognition they deserve for their rear guard defence. They held out until all the English soldiers had been evacuated.

Not quite how it happened. 123,000 French soldiers were evacuated back to England as well. 40,000 French soldiers were captured at Dunkirk, and 40,000 British were captured. There's were also a lot of British soldiers that stayed behind to buy time for the evacuation. Last Stand and Le Paradis being one of the many stories.

This movie had one major flaw. It should have explained at the start what the hell was going on. People under 60 years old had no idea why all these guys were on the beach. A few minutes of explanation would have set the scene for the entire movie.
