Letters from Iwo Jima (2006). Another Eastwood masterpiece, this one truly felt as if it were told from an eastern point of view. There was a little westernization to it, but maybe that can be forgiven if the commander of the island was in reality a little sympathetic to the west. Either way, the acting was splendid, the war scenes powerful, and the direction wonderful. The story itself was well crafted. Ashe.
