Very Moving film
Not since Pearl Harbor have I ever been moved by such a movie. It captures the spirit of British patriotism and the spirit of defiance that the people of England possessed against the hated Third Reich.

Amazing
An amazing recount of Easy company's tour from training through to the Eagle's nest. Moving and compelling and made all the more touching by the interviews with the real soldiers who took part there. Brilliantly made!

"Alice Oswald's extraordinary poetry sequence “Memorial,” takes the deaths and similes of the “Iliad” as the core of a deeply moving evocation of war, loss, and the poet's struggle to find the words for what it's like to die."

Movie Favorite

"This film is a real lesson in the potency of restraint in acting. Michael Redgrave’s performance is brilliant—quiet, nuanced and genuinely moving. The whole film builds to a single redemptive point, and as an ending, it pays off!"
