Andrew Garfield as Desmond Doss
Visually stunning and jarring. As an ex serviceman I had to take a few breaths during this film
A powerful wartime epic, that shows heroes dont have to carry a gun

Book Favorite

"I love all of Sarah Waters’ historical fiction but this is my favorite novel, set during and after WWII. It starts slow but picks up insane momentum, using reverse narration to follow the characters backward in time to the explosive wartime scenes that shaped them."

"Set in the fascinating world of wartime radio, don’t miss The Shadow Network, a heart-stopping novel of betrayal, treachery, and courage against the odds."

Big screen remake of the classic British wartime sitcom, stacked with talent and with an absurd plot (admittedly, no more than most episodes of said TV show) that kinda makes you wonder why they even bothered!

Having said that, it's an inoffensive way to spend a few hours.
