I hope some (many?) of you have seen this movie. It is one of Stanley Kubrick's early works, and one of the best WW I movies yet made.

I think WW I is difficult for Americans (like myself) to fully grasp. We were only involved as a nation at the end. I don't think we normally appreciate that almost every European nation involved in it bled out a generation of men in the trenches of France.

This movie, more than any other, reflects the madness of that war.
