Feb 18, 2021 · I would highly recommend Forgotten Ally: China's World War. As OP has pointed out, whereas in the past, the CCP would flat out deny the KMT army's (major) role in resisting Japanese occupation, today it is acknowledged in TV shows, documentaries, museums (even though the KMT of course still plays second fiddle to the Chinese Red Army for obvious reasons).

Sep 2, 2020 · Nothing that was the problem the CCP had ( more as the movie was released at the 70s anniversary of the CCP so they didn't wan't having the Nationalist having the spotlight) so the movie was banned at first in China ( even taken out of screening minutes before opening the Shanghai Film Festival).

May 22, 2022 · But 2485, in this context, is neither "twenty four hundred eighty five" or "two thousand eight hundred forty five", but rather just "twenty four eighty five". On the other hand, if I'm doing math and the result is 2485, I will say "two thousand eight hundred forty five". There's probably other exceptions, but I can't think of them right now.

Aug 23, 2020 · The story is pretty amazing because it tells the very real tale of several hundred Republic of China soldiers during the Battle of Shanghai in 1937.

The film also shows the various dialect used in China... At last, they were ordered to cross and surrender to the foreign concession after the battle...

May 27, 2021 · Only "four thousand eight hundred thirty-seven" in other forms of English. However: for whole thousands, no form of English uses hundreds. 7000 is always "seven thousand", never "seventy hundred". 5072 is "five thousand seventy-two" in all forms of English, sometimes "fifty seventy-two" in American and Canadian English, but never "fifty hundred ...

Aug 17, 2021 · As a fan of Band of Brothers, I really enjoyed The Eight Hundred - the movie pulls no punches when it comes to depicting the brutality of urban warfare, and despite some historical inaccuracies, I found it hard to fault the film. I'd highly recommend watching it and hope it garners more interest in the Asian theatre of WW2. Trailer here. P.S.

Jul 11, 2016 · 0800 means 8:00am. Instead of saying, "I'll see you at zero-eight-zero-zero," they just shorten it to, "Oh-eight-hundred." It's easier to remember and quicker to say.
