The aspect of making history both entertaining but also prevalent in character is a balance, especially when it involves action and comedy. With "The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare", director Guy Ritchie uses his approach to again make something off-the-cuff.

The context that drives "Condor's Nest" is revenge but one draped in the almost noir structure Westerns of the late 50s/early 60s portray where rage blinds a man despite the reasoning that he is up against. Will Spaulding is a man who lost his entire flight squadron during World War II to a sadistic colonel who took no mercy but chocked it up to the focus of war.

The aspect of secret missions and the cultural standing within them is normally about how do you inflect genre. What "The Burial" does is turn it on its head and uses folklore in a way to mask some very real human approaches, behavior and setbacks, many of which are lost to time.

With a story like "Summerland" which is set during World War II in a small town near the Cliffs Of Dover, it becomes more about the texture of acceptance and perception. It is the story of a woman who lives her life alone for a reason, burned in a way by love, which leaves her alienated just as much by the circumstance as she is by the time.

With "Greyhound" which details a crossing of the Atlantic corridor during World War II, Hanks plays the captain of a ship (called "Greyhound") whose job it is to oversee and in a way cut off attacks on the ships (including the supply chain) by elusive U-Boats.
