    The Last Rifleman (2023)

    A WWII veteran Artie Crawford (Pierce Brosnan)escapes his care home in Northern Ireland and embarks on an arduous but inspirational journey to France to attend the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings, finding the courage to face the ghosts of his past. A tome of slow beauty...


    There will be an annoying commercial at the beginning and one early in the show then no more.

    Bernard.webp Who is Artie Crawford based on?
    The Last Rifleman follows Artie Crawford's journey to Normandy, inspired by Bernard Jordan's real-life adventure. In June 2014, Jordan, an 89-year-old WWII veteran, left his care home in England to attend the D-Day 70th anniversary in France.Nov 11, 2024


    Is Pierce Brosnan's The Last Rifleman based on a true story?

    That was big news in the reunion world when the real Bernard Jordan escaped his nursing home and headed to the reunion in France. He became a symbol of the heroes of the past.

        Indeed. And every generation since has become softer and more stupid. We are currently in phase 3 of the following observation.

        “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”
