I used to love going to the Redwood forests in California but I never got to see it because of all those trees.

Unbelievable that a movie that portrays what our veterans go through in such a realistic and honorable way (according to my grandfather, a WW2 vet), gets shunned because of all those dirty words.

The imbecilic station managers miss the point of the movie completely.
