Two stories in one - an easygoing British Corporal in France finds himself responsible for the lives of his men when their officer is killed. He has to get them back to Britain somehow. Meanwhile, British civilians are being dragged into the war with Operation Dynamo, the scheme to get the French and British forces back from the Dunkirk beaches. Some come forward to help, others are less willing. (imdb)

It's a movie that depicts a historical event from WW2 with a very personal approach to the subject - the movie shows the personal dramas of those who are portrayed (soldiers, french and british civilians), the movie has no intention of being too profound on this aspects, but it's still quite effective. The movie has some very good moments: specially those where it shows the battle in France; the moments where there are discussions, in London, about the war, are the low moments of the movie.

Very "John Mills" - the reluctant civilian stranded in Dunkirk glad he volunteered for the evac after all! No historical revisionism here - but still great for it! worth contrasting with Atonement.
