Spike Lee is going to make a World War II Drama. This is good news, I'll watch pretty much anything based in or around World War II and also feel that every great director eventually makes a war film. It will be an Italy-set World War II drama based on "Miracle at St. Anna," U.S. author Walter McBride's novel about black American soldiers fighting the German army in the mountains of Tuscany.

The project is about the true tale of four members of the U.S. army's 92nd division of all-black soldiers, who in 1944 became trapped in a Tuscan village, as they contended with their racist, incompetent commanders and the Nazis.
