los hombres que no amaban a las mujeres

“El 18% de las mujeres de Suecia han sido amenazadas en alguna ocasión por un hombre” ... “En Suecia el 46% de las mujeres han sufrido violencia por parte de algún hombre” ... “En Suecia el 13% por ciento de las mujeres han sido víctimas de una violencia sexual extrema fuera del ámbito de sus relaciones sexuales” ... “En Suecia el 92% de las mujeres que han sufrido abusos sexuales no lo han denunciado a la policía”.



Siempre he dicho que es una tontería la típica frase de ¨el libro es mucho mejor que la peli¨. Hay que considerar ambos como piezas independientes, y por tanto no comparables. Cuando lees un libro creas tu propia película que jamás será la que otra persona -en este caso el director- se imagine. (Puede ser que ya haya compartido esta reflexión anteriormente...)
En este caso, contradiciendo mi propia teoría voy a compararlas y espero que la peli vaya un poco más al grano porque hasta la página 300 el libro no se empezó a poner interesante. De todos modos y por cabezonería empezaré el segundo...

"Will you still care?
Will you be there?
In my trials
and my tribulations
Through our doubts
and frustrations
In my violence
In my turbulence
Through my fear
and my confessions
In my anguish
and my pain
Through my joy
and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'll never let you part
for you're always in my heart."

D-day

"... It is an event that has long brought to this coast both heads of state and grateful citizens; veterans and their loved ones; the liberated and their liberators. It has been written about and spoken of and depicted in countless books and films and speeches. And long after our time on this Earth has passed, one word will still bring forth the pride and awe of men and women who will never meet the heroes who sit before us: D-Day.

Why is this? Of all the battles in all the wars across the span of human history, why does this day hold such a revered place in our memory? What is it about the struggle that took place on these sands behind me that brings us back here to remember year after year after year?

...

Nazi ideology sought to subjugate, humiliate, and exterminate. It perpetrated murder on a massive scale, fueled by a hatred of those who were deemed different and therefore inferior. It was evil.

The nations and leaders that joined together to defeat Hitler's Reich were not perfect. We had made our share of mistakes, and had not always agreed with one another on every issue. But whatever God we prayed to, whatever our differences, we knew that the evil we faced had to be stopped. Citizens of all faiths and no faith came to believe that we could not remain as bystanders to the savage perpetration of death and destruction..."
