Default Now I get it

Now I understand the logic of the music scores after looking at the films music and reading the info on http://publicservicebroadcasting.net/ .

Took me awhile to understand the why and the logic of the music over-score. It is a good way of making history more alive for the younger generations.

I remember these films from my childhood, no not as newsreels at the movies I'm not that old. But from the TV and a series called The 20th Century with Walter Cronkite.

Cheers Phil

Looks like a bit of revisionism, what with Reg Mitchell naming his aircraft the "Spitfire Bird".

In actual fact, lying on his death bed, upon learning what his creation had been named by others, purportedly said something like "Oh, what a silly name!".
