![]() Branded a coward and bullied to leave, he was eventually granted conscientious objector status and became one of the troops sent to capture Hacksaw Ridge in the Battle of Okinawa of May 1945. Not long after meeting the one love of his life, nurse Dorothy Schutte (Teresa Palmer), he enlisted with the belief that he could serve his God unarmed and without killing enemy soldiers. A devout Seventh-day Adventist, he swore never to commit violence or even carry a weapon but felt duty-bound to enlist in the Army. Raised in bible best Virginia, Doss had a troubled upbringing under an abusive father. The film plays in two halves: the early life and romance of Army Medic Desmond Doss (Andrew Garfield) and the actual Battle of Hacksaw Ridge. If it were not a true story that celebrates an unusual hero the film could have been accused of a gratuitous display of unrelenting carnage and military triumphalism. The dramatic realism of modern digital effects spares little and many audiences will find Hacksaw Ridge (2016) one of the most violent sensory assaults that can be experienced in a cinema. I just wish Apple would wake up to this fact, but as based on the time it took them do 23.976 properly I'm not holding my breath.Good war-films can be very disturbing to watch. It's the same reason Netflix' own films are mastered in 24.000p - they have no incentives to cater to the NTSC standard so they don't. It would just be an extra cost that would yield little to no return. As such, there is little incentive for European productions to master in 23.976 when it is mostly an American necessity. Most are shot in 24.000 straight and then converted and mastered in 23.976 to lighten post-production in the distribution chain. Remember, 23.976 became a standard only because of NTSC (59.94), not because film are shot in 23.976. It is ever so annoying as the latest Apple TV 4k software update (11.3) has only worsened the problem. I'm far to lazy to check but I'm quite certain that all my Ealling Studio film BDs are 24.000p as is Paddington 1 and 2. Most Scandinavian and German BDs are 24.000p or often 25p. Try getting a hold of a French BD that isn't in 24.000p. I own several BDs that have been mastered and presented in 24.000p and 25.000p. The upper limit of the Blu-ray spec is 2160p at a maximum of 60 frames per second (p/Hz/fps). (added Arrow Films title on iTunes 02-03-20)Ĭlick to expand.What absolute nonsense. ![]() Kajaki(UK Netflix) (added 5-30-20) (This title is known as "Kilo Two Bravo" in the USA and has a 23.967 frame rate which seems odd but it is what it is) Twin Murders: The Silence of the White City I may have missed a few and I'm sure there are at least this much more, maybe 100's of titles with a 24.000 frame rate that the Apple TV(and many other devices) cannot play correctly. I went through this thread and collected all the titles that were mentioned with the frame rate issue. I hope that they will add it in the future given enough people complain about it. Therefore, we need to make Apple aware of this problem here: So there is nothing Infuse, MrMC, Plex, etc can do about it as those framerates are just not available. I was extremely surprised to find this as every publication which reported on Apples new and awesome "match framerate" did not mention this. Movies include American Pie (1999), Rambo (2008) and Rules of Engagement (2000). I looked through my movie collection which consists of 269 movies and it turns out that 4% of them are 24.000 fps. Still, its a no brainer for apple to implement it. Sure, 24.000 is not the norm as the vast majority of movies is filmed at 23.976 frames and 60.000 content is even more scarce. ![]() Obviously, this is very annoying and every proper mediaplayer has support for it.
