Restored genuine film of B-17s over Europe

I think many of you will want to see this. In 1944/43, William Wyler shot the documentary film Memphis Belle. The outakes have now been found and restored with commentary by some veterans who were there. It is on in the cinemas in the UK on 4 July.

At least on this side of the pond, it's also available on Amazon Prime if you have the HBO option.

Edited to add:
I just watched this on Amazon. Riveting stuff - I highly recommend it.
