War films are my absolute favorite so Ive seen my fair share- this has instantly taken a top 3 spot for me.
You're going to murder Heydrich?
Assassinate..murder implies he had a life worth living.
Everything about this film is just a masterpiece- cilian murphy + war = perfection
There were certain scenes that are just completely horrifying (and unfortunately entirely accurate) and so insanely well acted i almost had to look away (i mean holding his mothers head up to his face to get a confession is one of the most gruesome psychotic things ive seen- not sure if they actually did that or not but hey they’re nazis so i wouldn’t be surprised)
I think something worth noting is the use of silence in this film, for example when all the guns stop, and it focuses on Cilian Murphys realisation of what that silence means. No music, no background noise, just complete silence- just so impactful
And again in the final scene, just quiet classical music, the focus of the candle dropping into the water and cilians eyes- just utter perfection
This is a film I would re watch a million times over and enjoy it every time (dk if it’s weird to say i enjoy watching movies like this but hey ho)
