Powerful film

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2007)

I'm not sure about the Anti-French, anti-war debates as i'd prefer not to read too much into the film. What I do know is that it is an incredible piece of film making, incredible acting, and excellent portrayal of trench conditions in WW1. . I think the real question of this film is about courage and cowardice, who really is a coward and who really has courage. I defy even the toughest and most hardened person to not shed a tear in the final scene in the bar with the soldiers. That scene is one of the best pieces of film EVER as it shows the men regain some of the humanity that the war had robbed them of. So powerful from beginning to end. Certainly one of the best films I have every seen.
