1917

We went an afternoon showing of the movie 1917, with our friends Carlou and Scott.  1917 is an extraordinary war film, based on an account told to the writer/director/producer, Sam Mendes, by his grandfather.  The film chronicles the story of two young British soldiers during WWI, who are given a mission to deliver a message.  1917 won the 2020 Golden Globe for Best Picture and has been nominated for a 2020 Oscar in the Best Picture category.  We thought it was exceptional!
