Brothers at War (2009)
Profound effect
I recently watched this movie and it had quite a profound effect on me. Two things came to mind. One. The unbelievable pride these brothers have in each other and their country and two the unbelievable sadness that this pride actually can cause. I could not help but wonder if, what they are doing-is it not unbelievably selfish to those they leave behind. The young child who while growing up misses having a dad around and the young fiancé who has to sit at home and hope her husband to be will not be killed. I think she had the biggest effect on me as you can see that she is fighting back the tears while being interviewed. It just really showed that war is such a terrible thing and that being patriotic and being proud can also leave a very clearly loving family torn by what is being perceived as doing your duty to your country and doing your duty to your family. I salute this family.
