Holy fuck that tank scene! The sheer horror of seeing these hulking machines that you’ve never seen before, just slowly treading towards you. You shoot at it and nothing is stopping it. That’s terrifying

I loved the shot of the person standing in the window of his house as he’s watching this unfold. Completely oblivious to the real nature of war that’s occurring in his backyard. Standing there in a nice warm shelter, safe, and while the real soldiers are getting brutally killed. But that’s the nature of war

An utterly pointless war and it’s even sadder when you know that WW2 was just around the corner.

R.I.P to the brave soldiers that died in this war. I applaud any film that sheds light on this brutal incident war that’s mostly forgotten or overshadowed by the second one.

It's not a random civilian standing at the window of the house, it's the German general, the same one who later orders the final assault for "honor" in the last few hours before the armistice takes effect
