Monuments Men

Rating: Null/10 (19 February 2014)

I taught the Humanities for thirty years,visited major museums and historical locations in America, Russia, France, and other European nations, saw the movie, immediately bought and read the book, saw the movie again and am astounded that any substantive criticisms are made. With few exceptions, the screenplay honored the book. There is no message to the movie; only a recognition of what took place during and after the war and an appreciation for the special Americans and Europeans who contributed to a process that continues to today. Every time I see one of those art objects I will be reminded and appreciative of their work.
