No people, just actors

Rating: 5/10 (1 February 2020)

The list of great films about war will not include 1917. Kubrick's Paths of Glory is about people; 1917 is about actors. Costa Gavras brilliant Battle of Algiers will be there. Downfall. Mash.
The director of 1917 was distracted by the technical concept and many of the sequences are impressive; in the way that a clever ride in a theme park may be impressive. Nothing more.
