Great retelling of a well-known story

Rating: 8/10 (27 June 2020)

It does feel like they added a healthy dose of "emotional Hollywood coat of paint" on pretty much everything related to the characters' personal lives, but there is no denying they went to great lengths to get all the technical details right and capture the right atmosphere for each moment of the events. Some people seem to find the pace a bit slow (and boring) and it I am usually very susceptible to that but surprisingly I found it to work in the movie's favor in this case. I also couldn't care less about the whole flag scene controversy.
