Tired, Gay, and Sad

ok but real talk, I saw 1917 again (3rd time, I love it, wow are you guys shocked) and I just…have to take a moment and appreciate the co-writer on the movie, Krysty Wilson-Cairns. Today I took the chance to listen to her on a few different podcasts, talking about this movie and you can really see what she brought to it. I’ve seen a ton of war movies (I find the genre can be really interesting and enlightening, but not all of them are great of course) but what really stood out to be about 1917 was…almost the lack of violence. Of course, there are violent acts, but they aren’t like other war movies. But what you do see in the carnage that war leaves in its wake. Just dead bodies out in the middle of nowhere’s land, rotting for god know’s how long. But not how they got there.
