In 1940, during the fall of France, allied
forces (British and French) retreated to the
shore at Dunkirk, and were pinned down
there under heavy fire. A citizen flotilla of
small fishing and pleasure craft from
across the English Channel rallied to reach
the trapped soldiers. Filmmaker
Christopher Nolan wrote, directed, and
produced a depiction of the evacuation,
shot it in IMAX format, and released it in
theatres last July. Since then, the film has
become the highest-grossing WWII film of
all time, taking in $525 million worldwide.
It has been nominated in eight categories at
the 23rd Critic's Choice Awards, and three
categories at the 75th Golden Globe
Awards.
