I can't believe the stupidity...
This movie sucked so much, that even the tagline is wrong! Read it...

Not the early '40s, the early '30s! The story begins before WW2 began!
Also, why the heck did they put the exactly same voice over narration twice?? At the beginning, and at the end. For those who came to the theater late and missed it when the movie started?? :p
