Ok, I REALLY need to stop eating or drinking when I watch war movies. I should have learned my lesson when I saw Saving Private Ryan. The first 15 minutes were just horrifying. And now I am watching Enemy at the Gates. Yikes! But now here is the ryb...

We have a movie about the Russian line during WWII. Jude Law of course is good. The movie seems very interested. BUT, how and why in the hell can Russian soldiers have British accents? And why do some speak a la Russian, and others not. What kind of freaking actind/directing choice is that???? Not only that, but since when were women allowed in the Russian army? ESPECIALLY then during Stalin-ism. There is only so much you can push the willin suspension of disbelief in the media, especially in the case of real-life events. It REALLY bugs me.
