Discussion Film / Dunkirk

Does anybody else find some striking similarities between Dunkirk and the Dunkirk film being made in Their Finest? I've got some of them in a YMMV Hilarious in Hindsight on the latter's entry, but I'm not sure if it warrants addition here or how best to phrase it.

I would like to formally object to the removal of my entry: "Token Minority: Arabs and Africans appear among the French troops being barred from boarding the British hospital ship."

The trope denotes "a character designed to get more minority groups into the plot". The deleter justified the removal by arguing that "They are not token. There were French colonial troops trapped in Dunkirk in reality." However, said Arab and African troops who actually appear in the film are not named and have only a handful of lines. They most prominently appear in only a single scene, and otherwise are overshadowed by the rest of the predominantly white European cast and extras. Nevertheless, the fact that the film production strategically placed them closer to the camera firmly demonstrates that their inclusion was intended as a reminder of the overlooked role that colonial troops played in the Allied war effort.

I do not believe America Won World War II is justified in this trope list.

• The opening scene establishes that French soldiers are manning the Dunkirk perimeter.
• There is a scene with a squad of French soldiers attempting to board a boat and being rejected.
• A French soldier attempts to impersonate an Englishman in order to escape.
• At the end Kenneth Branagh says he's staying behind to rescue the French at Dunkirk.

As for "giving the impression that England did Dunkirk alone", they did do Dunkirk alone, if one is referring to the actual evacuation of the BEF back to Britain. Anyway, it seems like what I have listed above is more than enough to establish for the viewer that the British weren't fighting the war solo.
