I can't wait to see this. Not many WW1 films out there but this looks like it can be among the best ones.

It is much harder to think about doing something than actually doing it!

1917 Review

It'll have to be pretty darn good to be in the league of Lawrence of Arabia and Paths of Glory.
Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men, between brothers?

The footage I saw looked too clean. Clean clothes, crispy entrenchments. While what I heard about it it was first of all a horribly muddy affair.

Springel the clip with the grass has chalk trenches so I'm assuming it maybe a flashback to the Somme. This would explain it.

1917 the August rains and destruction of drainage explain the mid the attacks in the Spring weren't so muddy.

It was that somewhere, not everywhere.

I have heard that in time of Middle Ages, there was no clean water and everybody drank beer all the time, even children. Again: it may have been that somewhere, but not everywhere.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.
