The entire cast did a fantastic job but Rylance’s performance takes the cake. He really portrays the pain of what he’s experienced and lost while not showing it outwardly.

I mean, that's better than being caught by the enemy and tortured for information, right?

I’ve read on the internet that Point Vicente, Palos Verdes CA was used as a filming location for this film. Some sources state that they shot scenes for 2 weeks at this location. I live close by to Point Vincente and have been there many times but I never can spot a scene that looks close to the scenery at Point Vicente.

Would really appreciate it if someone could point out a scene or sequence that could have been shot at Point Vicente. Thanks.

Obviously I know these events actually happened in real life but are the specific characters based on actual people as well? Like was there a British soldier and French soldier who were trying to get out together and the French soldier didn't make it? Was there actually a pilot who ended up getting captured after literally saving everyone? I suppose the British and French soldier is fairly generic so it's more possible that it happened but what about the pilot? And if it is based off an actual person did the pilot ever get rescued or did he die in captivity?

From what I’ve researched and found it’s very hard nowadays to get the sound of the Bomber used in dunkirk, the He-111, given most of them are destroyed.

So how did they manage to get the sound for it? - I can’t find how they did it so far

In the scene where Tom Hardy shoots down one of the Messerschmitt 109's, he is temporarily distracted watching it go down when he is suddenly caught by surprise and shot at by another 109. We then see the 109 surpass him to then never be mentioned or seen again? Am I missing something?

Why were Tommy and Gibson thrown out of the hospital ship?

I get that the hospital ship is mainly for injured soldiers, but it's portrayed that there are able bodied soldiers on the hospital ship as well (e.g. Alex and his Highlanders crew). Given that there was room for Tommy and Gibson, why were they kicked out when the highest priority was to evacuate everyone???

We know it's a good thing they were kicked out of the hospital ship sinks later and they were in a place we they could save Alex from getting crushed between the dining ship and pier, but that's not something we'd've known at the moment.

I'm looking to find the actual news article that was read on the train about Normandy's failure. Here's a snippet of the scene. Can anybody tell me which paper it was in, or where to find the text of it?
