Watching Sergeant York gave me that warm, slightly conflicted feeling—like being swept up in an old story you know is a bit corny but can’t help believing in. Gary Cooper has this calm, steady presence that made me buy into the whole thing, even when it leaned too hard on flag-waving. It left me feeling oddly inspired, in that gentle, old-Hollywood way that lingers after the credits.

Well made movie that was too slow paced. I liked the ending and I liked that it was based on a true story but it felt very slow and was kind of boring.

Yeah, just not my thing.

My dad wanted to throw this on and boy was it great! Based on a true story and one part Forest Gump, one part Hacksaw Ridge, this film is really well paced for a 2hr movie from 1941. Not only that, but the performance by Gary Cooper and score by Max Steiner really sold it for me! I also loved how they didn’t veer away from him coming to Christ after sobering up. Definitely one of the best war films I’ve seen
