With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone interested in what war does to people and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost. If you loved War Horse or Patton, start here.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 23 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1968: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
A story of a farmer and his calf, the only survivors of the German WW2 punitive expeditions that passed through their village. While evading before the dangers of war, the farmer develops a deep attachment to his calf and tries to save it at all costs, but it wouldn't be much easier for them even after the liberation day.
