The AP reports that Clint Eastwood is making not one, but two films, on the battle of Iwo Jima.

The two films — "Flags," telling the story of six men who raised an American flag on Mount Suribachi, and the tentatively named "Lambs Before the Wind" on the Japanese side of the battle — are scheduled for simultaneous release next fall.
