Hello

The Maillé-Brezé is a  floating museum. She left Nantes (my city) to Dunkirk, for the new film "Dunkirk" from Christopher Nolan.
( She was  disguised as a WW2 boat in Saint Nazaire)

A new film from a great director, on a good history.. I can't wait !

I'm pretty sure the last feature film about the evacuation from Dunkirk was made in black and white in the 50s.
