You've seen the trailer, but I've read the book, and it is not very good. The event depicted took place on August 12, 1944, when troops from the 16th SS Panzer Grenadier Division killed 560 people in the village of Sant'Anna di Stazzema. No US soldiers, let alone African-Americans were involved. One villager stated: "It's a false reconstruction that does not take account of the historical reality," adding "This sort of fiction should be banned, otherwise the damage to the memory and historical truth will be very serious." I don't believe in banning anything, and plan to see the movie. That said, I think Spike Lee should get his own glass house in order before throwing stones at Clint Eastwood.
