Awesome movie, very detailed

Rating: 10/10 (19 June 2007)

I still rent and watch this movie for really only one scene. And even as I viewed the trailer to this movie moments ago on this website, it made my heart beat faster. The scene where the beautiful, lovely war machine known as the P-51 Mustang in her silver sleek skin flew by the building that had the 12-year old standing atop, yelling at the top of his lungs, "P-51, Cadillac of the Sky" repeatedly. In enters the roar, power, and beauty of the American air supremacy that we enjoyed back when the P-51 was in her day. The pilot had his canopy slung back, and his scarf trailing in the air still is impressed in my image. For this boy, the man piloting this beautiful plane was god-like. The scene captured all the emotion of that moment, and I tip my hat to Steven Spielberg for creating such a wonderful image that is probably my favorite scene in any movie overall. Why? The love affair we had with WWII planes and also the new planes that exist today. If you're an American patriot that is proud to wear your national pride and respect for our capability on your sleeve, watch the full movie to see this scene and it will double your heart rate, I guarantee it.
