@lickface The film is actually 41 minutes long. It's easy: everytime you see a running time of 12h and something minutes, the actual running time of the film is just the minutes part. Hope I helped with this explanation.
@endofultimate You either click on the green button below the film poster, with "dowload" written in it, and then chose the definition you want the film in, or you click on the 720p.BluRay button at the top of the page. Hope this helps.
Thank you FREEMAN, I really wanted to see this one, I'm a huge fan of this franchise! Great work, keep it up!
Thank you FREEMAN, for uploading this one! I'm a huge fan of French films and of the Arsène Lupin books by Maurice LeBlanc, so this is quite a treat you've given me. Thank you once more, and keep up the good work!
@HubcapDiamond: When you say original, are you refering to the 1925 version, directed by Fred Niblo, Charles Brabin and J.J. Cohn? Because if you mean the 1959 version with Charlton Heston, that was also a remake. Personally, and given the fact that all the film versions of this story are based on the same novel, I do not regard them as remakes but rather new adaptations of the same source material. Some are better than others - the 1959 version is absolutely perfect, the 2016 version is absolutely horrible -, but this mini-series from 2010 is actually pretty good and very faithful to the novel. I thought I was going to hate it, being a huge fan of the Charlton Heston version, and was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved it. If you haven't watched it yet, give it a try.
@Demerge: bearclaw is right, there were no negotiations going on between the US and the Japanese at that time, since the Japanese refused them completely and intended to fight to the end, in the best kamikaze way. Hundreds of thousands - if not more - would have died on both sides if the war had continued. Does this mean that the decision by the US of dropping both A bombs was the right one? In all honesty, I don't know; and I say this as an European who has no direct interest in the matter (my country never had nuclear weapons, still doesn't, and was neutral during WWII). As a humanist, I'm appalled by the use of such horrible weapons, not only because of the unspeakable effects it had on the population of those two cities and it's descendants, but because it opened a Pandora's box that we haven't been able to close to this day. But on the other hand, it's use did prevent the death of hundreds of thousands - if not more - on both sides and shortened the war by possibly more than a year. It's a moral conundrum to which no one is likely to find a correct answer any time soon, if ever. I don't know what my decision would have been, if I were in President Truman's shoes, but I know this: I'm glad he's the one who had to make this decision and not me.
