The thing about this story is that they actually had to take out stuff he actually did because they believed the audience wouldn't believe it. Some of the things he did saving people is absolutely amazing!
The scene where Doss saves a japanese soldier hits a lot harder when you remember that the Japanese were heavily indoctrinated about who and what Americans and American Soldiers were at the time, so to see it be completely false before his eyes was just pure culture shock.
If you think about this man, it isn't just 75 people he brought down off that ridge. It was 75 families, 75 futures. The number of people who exist now because of his actions far exceeds 75. It's all of the children, grandchildren, and even great grandchildren who would never have been born as well. His actions have had a ripple effect that we will never fully be able to measure.
He's buried in my city, near my grandparents and uncles. What a hero to choose peace and healing in a time and area of violence.
The fact the creators of the movie actually TONED DOWN Doss's feats still blows my mind. The army's number showed Doss saved close to 150 people. Doss humbly disagreed stating it couldn't have been more than 50. They decided to compromise on the number of 75 saved. Just at Okinawa. He actually served a lot longer than that, all without carrying a gun, while starving due to being a vegetarian. He was eventually discharged because his legs got shredded. He contracted TB while in recovery as well. At least two japanese soldiers experienced weapon malfunction while attempting to kill Doss. Everytime they would aim at him and pull the trigger the gun would jam. Aimed somewhere else and fired, gun worked, aimed back at Doss, weapon jammed. Then all the reports of men refusing to go in to the field without Doss praying for them. One time, two squads, one consisting of Doss went out. The squad without Doss, not a single man returned. When Doss's squad returned, they asked how many they lost. They couldn't believe it when 0 casualties were reported from Doss's squad. Near the end when he was officially removed from active combat, in his final battle, his legs were so shredded he could no longer walk, and he ended up with a broken arm. He splinted his arm with a broken rifle barrel he found. And while crawling, he continued to treat injured soldiers. He consistently surrendered his own stretcher for other wounded men. Including one time they were carrying him off the field and he demanded the medics stop and take another soldier first. At one point, he lost his bible in the field and was heartbroken. The men in his squad went straight back to an active warzone and searched for hours to find his bible. Go watch the Conscientious Objector documentary on YT. If you are interested in Doss it is the best source of info.
“I thought I was blind.” That moment makes me well up every time.
Hugo Weaving should have got an Oscar nom for best supporting actor - never seen a better or more accurate portrayal of trauma and PTSD, so many layers to his performance
instantly clicked on this, it’s one of my favorite movies of all time, i’ve watched it over 6 times and i still can’t manage not to cry
Doss did all this and so much more while having Tuberculosis. He later had a lung removed. You can tell in the interview he has to gasp for breath.
