Nice, I just read his book actually.

Amazing story. Impressed that Jolie chose to tell it. Looking forward to seeing it!

I really enjoyed the book, my wife, daughters, and I are looking forward to see it.

 

Opening Boxing Day! Unfortunately I will be in a area of Mn that does not have a movie theater that weekend, so I will have to wait until I get home to see it.

Movie or not, I would buy that signed copy. Zamperini's story is almost unbelievable. The book doesn't come up in the Grand Comics Database. Any other info on it?

It was published by David C. Cook, publishers of Sunday Pix, a religious giveaway comic. The comic may collect a story serialized in Sunday Pix. No date on the comic, but it mentions Zamperini appearing on the television show "This is Your Life", which was on from 1952 to 1961.

 

Here' s another comic-related note about Zamperini. The B-24 Liberator bomber he first flew in was called "Super Man".

 

Super Man was shot up during a bombing run. Zamperini was assigned to another B-24 nicknamed "Green Hornet". This plane had mechanical difficulties and crashed, killing 8 of the 11 crew members, beginning Zamperini's ordeal of 47 days adrift at sea and his subsequent capture and torture by the Japanese.
