The epic, beautifully directed with a focus on symmetry and in a style that looks like one long shot, tells the story of two solders given a near-impossible task during WWI.
The way in which the story is shot makes the viewer feel included in the journey. We flinch, we grimace, we cry because we experience it along with the lead characters.
1917 should win Best Picture at the 2020 Academy Awards, and Mendes deserves the Best Director Oscar.
