Eh

Rating: 5/10 (16 June 2019)

Forget about the political backdrop, it is revisionist and could be any conflict, real or imagined.
The story is simply a love triangle set within a military conflict in a beautiful land.
The male leads all do well and sell their characters to the audience. My problem is with the female lead. Her delivery was off. It sounded very wrong for an upper middle class woman who hails from Philadelphia in 1914. She speaks with enough of a contemporary inflection that you think "Los Angeles, CA-2015" every time she reads a line, because she is such a central figure it ruined the movie for me.
I give this a 5 out of 10 for the scenery and male leads.
