"Take a look at that". Sgt. Wilkerson-- CMBN. His last words after spotting a German tank on the other side of a hedgerow.

Watching Sarajevo 1914 right now on The Netflix. It's in German with English subtitles but my God does it look authentic and beautiful  :clap:

Oh and the lead character doing the investigation is Jewish. Not sure if he really was in the real world. Assuming he was.

WIN/WIN!!  :notworthy:

Isn't it supposed to be an ominous take on the 'choose your own adventure' format? How does its work?

Yes and it works really well... if you have a the right equipment. You'll need to watch it on a newer smart TV with the latest Netflix app. OR a tablet or PC with the Netflix app. My 6 year old Sharp Smart TV wasn't able to run it but my 2 yr old Sharp in my man cave was. Netflix will let you know if you can run it.

It's interactive in that at certain points in the story you are given 2 choices and the program with follow the path you choose. But you have to choose quickly only 10 seconds or so, or a default choice is made. Choice is made with your remote or mouse.

The actual story in Bandersnatch is just OK, but works well as a demo of this type of tech. They even made the "flip back to choose a different path" thing work wreally well without it becoming ponderous to re-watch up to the decision point.

Hope they make more deeper stuff like this.

That sounds like an awesome idea for a spy thriller:
'The neighborhood looks sketchy. Do you enter the clandestine meeting place? YES / NO'     
'A van full of ISI goons is chasing your car. Ahead left is the off ramp into the Old City and right is the express way to the International Airport. LEFT / RIGHT'
