Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan Movie Review
The tension created rarely subsides and in the few moments of relative calm, there is an overriding sense of impending danger. Even the most benign actions seem to carry colossal consequences.

Tolkien Movie Review
His childhood was one filled with tragedy as his father died when he was three years old and his mother when he was twelve.

Without a family name and financial backing, his education was much more difficult for the hyper intelligent student.
