Great film!

Rating: 8/10 (16 January 2005)

This is one of the better foreign films I have seen lately. "Grand Illusion" is a movie that should be considered a timeless, cinematic classic. It goes into the human condition, assessing the theme of friendship as well as the theme of the realities of war. I'm surprised I can't find a classic like this at a video rental place such as Blockbuster.
I really hate to say this but "Grand Illusion" is better than Luis Bunuel's "L'Age "D'Or." I was fortunate to have seen "Grand Illusion" on a public access channel and was surprised to find out how popular it was in the foreign film world. I'd watch this again; it's a great film.
