Breaker Morant
- Commentary: Under construction.
This movie was recommended to me by a friend of one of my brothers-in-law when I was involved in a conversation about war with a group of visitors (of which I was one) to their home. Because of something I said, which I can't, now, remember, he urged me to watch this film. I've seen it more than a few times since then. It always churns my gut in just the proper way.
More later.
