Will

About This Movie

So, 'Will' is this interesting little gem from 2012 that captures a very raw and introspective moment during WWI. It’s more about the conversations and the quiet desperation than the typical battlefield action, which sets it apart from a lot of war films. The whole thing unfolds in these cramped spaces, which creates this intense atmosphere of confinement and tension. You’ve got this Canadian soldier and a German soldier who are both trapped, and their dialogue feels almost like a kind of therapy amidst the chaos. The performances really stand out—there's a genuine sense of humanity that seeps through despite the war raging outside. It’s not flashy; it’s stripped down and real, focusing on the shared experience of soldiers, rather than the conflict itself.
