It's disappointing to see a pretty good documentary on this bomber air crew fall into the common narrative that somehow the political right is at fault for the world's ills by condemning our former president and the recent events in Russia and Ukraine. As if they are the only ones a threat to democracy. Fortunately, that is near the end of the film, so the story of this singular Canadian crew and their tragic end is pretty straight forward without histrionics or too much sentiment (there is some). I understand the connection the director was trying to make between WW2 and the events of today, butI am not convinced that a documentary on lost airmen is the place to do it.
