They fight for their country but die for their friends.

The film is set during the Battle of Iwo Jima, in 1945, near the end of World War II. Directed by Clint Eastwood, it follows a group of American Marines, starring Ryan Phillippe, Adam Beach, Jesse Bradford and Jamie Bell. After training at Camp Tarawa in Hawaii, the 28th Marine Regiment sets sail for the island with a clear objective: to invade it. For three days, the Navy bombards the Japanese positions it suspects are on the ground. The soldiers prepare for the landing, which must secure a beachhead on February 19, 1945, in territory heavily defended.

Trivia about Flags of Our Fathers

Scott Eastwood, the director's son, and Bradley Cooper auditioned for one of the lead roles in the film's cast.

Jared Leto was almost cast as Rene Gagnon, but had to drop out due to a tour with his band, Thirty Seconds to Mars.

Although the film tells the battle from the American point of view, it was shot almost entirely in Iceland and Southern California, with some scenes in Chicago.

At the 2008 Cannes Film Festival, Spike Lee criticized Clint Eastwood for failing to represent Black Marines in the film while he was shooting Miracle at St. Anna.

Despite positive reviews from critics, the film grossed 65,900,249 dollars worldwide against an estimated budget of 90 million.

Filming lasted 50 days, roughly half the budgeted time, and the film received two Academy Award nominations, for Sound and Sound Editing.

The film was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Director and made the National Board of Review's list of the top ten films of the year.

A scene from a war bond campaign supposedly set at Chicago's Soldier Field was actually filmed at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, with computer-generated imagery.

Quotes by Flags of Our Fathers

This isn't just any island to them. This isn't Tarawa, Guam, Tinian, or Saipan. This is Japanese soil, sacred ground. Twelve thousand Japanese defenders in eight square miles, they will not leave politely, gentlemen! It's up to us to convince them.
U.S. Marines: [first lines] Corpsman! Corpsman! Corpsman! Corpsman! For God sakes, corpsman! Corpsman! Corpsman!
President Harry S. Truman: Being an Indian, you are a truer American than any of us. Bet your people are proud to see you wear that uniform.
