Saw this the other day while watching WW2 classic, The Train. I have no idea what 22 means.

 

For those who don't know, The Train film, with Burt lancaster, is one of the best films ever made with WW2 as part of the story. In this specific case, it is about the last days of the German occupation in Paris months after the Normandy allied landings in June of 1944. A big part of the success of hastening the German's retreat back into Germany during those months was the active participation of the French resistance committing various forms of sabotage. Keeping the rail system from being used by the Germans (to transport soldiers, weapons, supplies, items of value (stolen loot) was one of those forms of sabotage. Unfortunately, French communists played an active role in the French resistance, which would later lead to the problem with socialism France suffers from to this day. It's the best shot action film I've ever seen, using no modeling or special effects. Real steam trains, real ww2 airplanes.
