Last week, I recommended John Huston's trio of WWII documentaries. This week, I'm suggesting a documentary series about the making of (and impact of) his documentaries, as well as the impact of the works of four other famous Hollywood directors: Frank Capra, George Stevens, John Ford, and William Wyler.
It's called "Five Came Back," and it's currently streaming on NETFLIX INSTANT. (It was produced by Netflix, actually. The times, they are a-changing.)
Five acclaimed contemporary directors tell the story of five legendary Hollywood filmmakers who enlisted in the armed forces to document World War II.
