General Mireau: If those little sweethearts won't face German bullets, they'll face French ones!

Rating: 4/10 (16 December 2017)

Paths of Glory isn't much of a war film, yet it doesn't give the viewer enough to care about to be a drama.
Seems we are supposed to be invested in the fate of these three men on trial, when we aren't given any character depth and spend little screen time with them. Only to hear them whining "I don't want to die I don't want to die". I found many of the characters to be rather cartoonish, Mireau in particular. Kirk Douglas is terrific in the main role holding the film together.
