Chemical weapons, mustard gas - gloves off in WW1

And now, Covid anxiety, weeks of staying @ home are tough enough...

Can you imagine 4 years of world war?

Truly the hero generations who sacrificed so much.

Loved HOW the movie was filmed / editing / and cinematography (especially at night) was breathtaking. the story & accuracy left me a bit disappointed, but what REALLY stood out was the MUSIC.

How the F, Thomas Newman didnt win (AND HASNT WON) an Oscar is an absolute tragedy.  Joker score won...dissonant chords...yeah, I get it (his depression) but C’mon..

Just saw it today.  Awesome movie I thought.  Agreed the seamless cinematography gave it a very first person feel.
