    And it looks like he'll have plenty of chances to move a camera through blades of grass!

    Seriously, this looks like it could be really really good.

    I remember watching The Thin Red Line in the theater and thinking, "man, he sure loves that foliage."

    Really liked that movie, great book too.

    I'm assuming this is the last original story that can come from WWII and Nazi Germany. Everything is exhausted at this point yes?

    No. Haven't told the full story of South America post-'45. Or the Occupation of Japan. Or the starvation in Europe. Or the Soviet murder of dissidents and POWs.
