great movie did you spot the oopsy?

Rating: 9/10 (20 January 2016)

Great movie. It left me wanting to learn how to say "Standing Man" in Russian. I hope that "James Donovan" the main character is accurately represented by Tom Hanks. An amazing man who stood for what is right even against his own government. However did you spot the mistake with the pilots uniforms. In the movie the pilots are wearing tan uniforms as used to be worn by the Army Air Force. By the end of 1952 all US air force personnel were required to wear blue uniforms so that the period of 1957-60 would not have seen the uniforms that props issued to the actors playing the pilots. In-spite of that i like the way that the paranoia of the time about the soviets and the bomb were represented. It really reminded me of our modern equivalent of being paranoid about anyone who comes from a Muslim country.
