Close shot medals STORYLINE On the eve of the 60th anniversary of the Japanese surrender in World War Two, more than one hundred veteran pilots who fought the Japanese during the war gathered at the Beijing Aviation Museum in Beijing to relive their memories of a battle hard won. A simulated air battle was performed at the Beijing Aviation Museum. Model aeroplanes representing the Japanese bombers, and the bombers flown by the so-called "Flying Tigers" - the American volunteer pilots group in China during World War II took part. The simulated battle was based on a real one which took place in December 1944 in the sky over China, when four Japanese bombers, covered by 16 fighters, bombed southwest China. On their way back to the base, eight Flying Tigers suddenly attacked them and most of the Japanese planes were shot down. The Flying Tigers were a group of American fighter pilots that flew for China in the early part of 1942. Led by Colonel Claire Chennault, they were actually called the "American Volunteer Group" (AVG), and achieved good success in their aerial battles against the Japanese. The war between China and Japan started in July 1937 and ended on August 15th of 1945 when Japan announced its surrender.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: FRANCE: BRYLCREEM BOYS
TAPE_NUMBER: EN9917/B IN_TIME: 11:48:42 (TAPE 2) LENGTH: 03:35 SOURCES: APTN/GUERILLA FILMS RESTRICTIONS: NO RESALE FILM/VIDEO CLIPS *** PERSONALITY RIGHTS MUST BE CLEARED FEED: SCRIPT: xfa CANNES, DATE: RECENT "RIVERDANCE" STAR SWAPS STAGE FOR SCREEN It can often take years for a film to see the light of day at your local multiplex. Witness THE BRYLCREEM BOYS, which was shown in Cannes three years ago and is only now being released around Europe. The delay may be down to any number of reasons but mostly, where not just a question of indifferent sales, occurs because a film gets caught up in litigious activity or wrangling over rights. The bizarre but true story of how the Irish interned Allied and German forces during World War Two forms the backdrop to the film, which is set in Ireland. The Republic of Ireland was neutral in the last war and the Dublin government made a deal with London and Berlin whereby any soldier, sailor and airman captured on Irish soil would be interned for the duration of the war. What they forgot to mention is that the enemy forces would be interned together. The camps were run on a highly casual basis with the POWs allowed out on passes to attend the local races and the local pubs. The plot of The Brylcreem Boys follows the stormy relationship between Canadian airman Myles Keogh (BILL CAMPBELL) and German airman Rudolph von Stegenbek (ANGUS MACFADYEN) who managed to shoot each other down in a dogfight over Ireland. While out on one of his day trips, Myles meets local girl Mattie Guerin (JEAN BUTLER) and is soon enraptured by her. But their relationship is fractured when Rudolph turns up at the family house as a guest. Myles refuses to consort with the enemy and storms out. Strong headed Mattie refuses to enter into their "private war" and remains friends with both airmen forcing them to re-evaluate their love for the same woman and their attitude and perception of their enemies. Campbell starred in the lead role in The Rocketeer and featured in the cast of FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA'S DRACULA. British actor Angus MacFadyen starred opposite MEL GIBSON in the Oscar laden Braveheart. Butler is the acclaimed dancer and front woman of Riverdance, the traditional Irish stage musical that has wooed audiences in London, Dublin and New York. This is the first screen role for the American born Butler. The film also stars Ireland's celebrated actor GABRIEL BYRNE (Miller's Crossing, The Usual Suspects) as Commandant O'Brien, the chief of the eccentric camp. And rising star WILLIAM MCNAMARA (Texasville, Chasers) stars as Myles' roommate pilot officer Sam Gunn. The film is directed, produced and written by TERENCE RYAN. Films set in Ireland have been enjoying a renaissance in the last few years. Ironically however The Brylcreem Boys was filmed in the nearby Isle of Man. The movie was taken to Cannes by Polygram who then sold the rights onto Downtown Pictures who in turn have sold the film onto Cromgold/Guerilla Films, the UK Distributor of the film.
