I saw a 1968 film called 'Hell In The Pacific' the other night. It was about a US and Japanese soldier stranded on an Island together, how they started off enemies and then became allies in their struggle to get off the island. It was a good film and

I went to imdb.com to look for information about the film. It turns out there are two versions of it, each has a different ending. The endings pretty much sum up the difference between the Americans and the English.

Spoiler warning....

















"American version featured an alternative ending where the two get drunk and walk off in separate directions arguing at each other; in the British version they start yelling and a bomb from the sky falls and blows everything apart."

I love England.
