Good stuff
TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews8 August 2016
This is the only extra on the regular DVD of Fury, well, my library's copy anyway, going into that movie. Why don't I own it, myself? Because this is hardly a picture that one can watch repeatedly. It simply takes too much of a toll on you, on a very deep, significant level. So of course, this featurette goes into how they got all the way there.

It is made up of interviews, sit-down, between takes and such, with crew, actors and vets, all getting a good amount of time, each with something interesting to say, footage, both stock from the real events and behind the scenes, and film clips.

This goes into the authenticity and what they went through to get there, to understand the reality. The cast ended up asking further questions to reach that. We aren't given many of the answers, or what was said at all. Merely that the exchanges took place. They became a family. We learn a lot about the training, both the one week and the on-going to keep in shape, in more ways than one. This does dip into being the unfettered love-fest typical for this sort of thing, but not only of the big names.

This is 10 and a half minutes in running time. There are almost no credits. It shows and tells almost nothing of the worst in detail, which does keep the rating low. Presumably to allow it to air on TV, and such. The feature pushes a hard R, so the DVD isn't exactly going to avoid offensive material. 7/10

Essential addition to "fury"

... along with the feature hidden under "languages", which is an English description service that describes what is happening, and goes a long way to help understand the film.

Most of the actors get a word or several, and director and others who are not titled, I suppose the producer? and others.

The best feature is the real veterans who would be the best judges of the authenticity of the horribleness of what we then see in "fury".

This feature should be seen by all those VERY negative reviewers, who weren't there, and don't know nothing.

Brad Pitt looks so different.
