"Our parents never explain the war. We are asked without words to pay lip service to their sacrifice. Army of Shadows puts a face on the story. Never mind the long tracking shots; Melville takes you there."

"Another Kurosawa film packaged with perfect taste. With beautiful calligraphic type and brush painting, this set is a gem. Featuring seven examples of different personalities deciding to be selfless for very individual reasons, this film is a lesson in patience and of sacrifice."

Excellent
Amazing book. Extremely funny but also an eye opener to what the doctors have to do and go through. What they have to sacrifice. He tells his story with so much humor and the situations he finds himself in is hilarious. Cant recommend this book enough

"You may know what you need/ But to get what you want/ Better see that you keep what you have.” To me, that speaks to ambition. It speaks to having to make very tough decisions. It speaks to the heart of what sacrifice means, what compromise means, what negotiation means. It’s very smart advice."

Society is perfect, or at least that is what the citizens of [Azure] are told daily. What they see and experience tells them otherwise. This futuristic novel is a modern day version of [1984]. The government wants to retain control and power so badly they are willing to sacrifice everyone. [Grant Palmquist] creates a eerie prospect of the future.

Filled with beautifully tragic symbolism
This is one of the most tragically beautiful films I've experienced. It outraged so many people who are just not willing to admit how accurate and raw the truth of this film is. Each time watching is like a thrill ride into the mythical world of creation, sacrifice, and rebirth.
