True, too true, y'all are both right. I think I haven't made myself clear enough, though. I was just wondering what you all think about the effect the quote has on the movie, when you consider it as a parahrase of Churchill's statement.<P>Specifically: What does the quote add to the movie? What are its connotations, and what extra meaning and poignancy does it create?<P>Perhaps it's my training in literature analysis (thanks to two years of AP English ), but I've a few pretty definite ideas of my own on the subject. I do want to hear what everyone else thinks, though.
