Should have won best picture easily. I’ve never seen a war movie like that, it just hit in every area for me.

I've seen it twice, good film but I don't see what's so different or unique about it

It felt complete, directing, acting, cinematography all felt on par with each other and the story really worked for me. The dads WW1 backstory, Desmond’s childhood, the love story, the trial…and Okinawa being the full 2nd half was just compelling to me. Also that it’s a true story, and the true story is even more impressive than what they had shown in the movie.
