The main actress will definitely lead them through the forest with no shoes on.

He couldn't think of a way to fit a scene focused entirely on the protagonist's feet into the story.

[–] Event_Horizon@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

He can even play a Nazi and suck on the lead actresses toes before being shot!

He is thinking about which movie is going to be his last ever movie

..because she was a child soldier. She was doing this aged 14.

We tend not to glorify tales of the WW2 where war crimes were committed.

We do tend to do tales of tragedy though. She was the victim on two different counts, as well as being the hero (recruited as a child soldier, and defending against hostile invasion. Heroic for shooting Nazis).

Depicting someone defending against the bad guys while being taken advantage of by the good guys and meanwhile shooting pedophile Nazis feels like a shoe in.

Also, it wasn't technically a war crime at the time. The conventions around not using child soldiers are shockingly recent. Was still a bad thing to do, but only by modern standards.
We also tend to glorify war crime stories depressingly often, so I'm not sure that point even stands.

So Kick-Ass it, make it about her going and out killing these SS pedos who are following a 14 year old into the woods.

And we totally do, look at Inglourious Basterds.

[–] wewbull@feddit.uk 1 points 5 days ago

Inglorious basterds is fiction.

[–] DimFisher@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Because they can't make her movie character older than what it was?!

Of course it is, you don't have to be exactly accurate

Cause people with money tend to side with Hitler types.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Damn, we need a few thousand clones of her, asap. Nazis everywhere lately. Although they started to come back right around the time she died. Makes you wonder.
