Stalingrad
oh.
i’d like to point out that this story is told from soldiers’ perspective which is imo one of the best ways to tell a story about war and how meaningless and gruesome and brutal it is without those dumb patriotic mottos ideologies and shit like that high ranks are so desperate to keep going just because their lower half wasn’t separated from their upper half
wilhelm hosenfeld in his diaries wrote “humanity seems doomed to do more evil than good. the greatest ideal on earth is human love” and prove me wrong
if this review somehow reaches people who encourage war i need you to know that you should be ashamed of yourselves nothing can justify something as horrendous as war nothing can sugarcoat something as spine-chilling as war
(btw germans made film about their loss better than some bros might have made film about their win)
