I finally watched The Six Triple Eight! I waited almost two years to see this movie, and it did not disappoint!
Y’all, I felt as if I had been transported back to the 1940s. However, I heard the commands of “dress right, dress,” calling the room to attention (I hated being that person), and the sounds of Reveille and Taps being played as if it were yesterday. It’s funny how I have been retired from the Air Force for almost 13 years, and tonight, I found myself unconsciously following some of the commands. I know I raised my hand to salute a few times, and I’m so glad I didn’t. I would have been so embarrassed.
One thing I didn’t expect was to cry as much as I did. I believe I cried during three-fourths of the movie, and the majority of it was during Lena’s scenes. I won’t say too much, but y’all, this was so much more than a military movie. It was a love story, a beautiful love story. I didn’t expect that at all! Again, I won’t say much more. You have to watch it.
Overall, the movie was great! Everything was phenomenal, from the writer (my fav – have to give him his flowers) and producers to the fabulous cast and settings! I can’t wait to watch it again tomorrow. Yeah… it was that good!
Here’s a clip of one of my favorite scenes, the marching scene. Y’all, this scene made me so proud. I felt like I was marching with them.☺️ 6888 Marching Scene (Facebook clip)
Well, this is all I have for today! Wishing you a peaceful night and blessed weekend.♥️
Love you,
