Such a poignant illustration of the sheer humanity that drove everyone towards this fight. It balanced hope, anger, pride, and heartbreak all whilst portraying a faction of history that is oftentimes bleached out by the lingering patriotism surrounding England’s imperialism. Perhaps critics of this movie use anti-British as a blindfold to the brutality of our history, leading them to miss the movie’s sentiment that we do not have to be of different blood, nor full of hate-fueled dissonance for our opponent in order to stand for what is right.
