I still haven't seen War Horse, I'm afraid of the number of onions I would peel. But I have a huge soft sport for WWI.

Mine only gripe is that I wish there had been more trench and chemical warfare action since thats what interests me the most about WWI <cite>alimajor posted [p:932262206] in 1917 movie...

Seems odd they didn't highlight that more It not really one shot. There are takes, they just did it in real-time, as I understand it. In a way it's too bad that has become the conversation about this movie for some. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan.

Had no idea this movie was supposed to be a one-shot. Was also informed it has Benedict Cumberbatch AND Colin Firth so naturally my sploosh radar went off immediately --- My 'R' key is on its last legs. This isn't a gimmick. Instead of CTRL + Ving the letter R every time, I am giving up on Rs, so forgive any words missing R. <cite>PatrickMahomes posted [p:932267534] in 1917 movie...

matteus70 12/31/19 10:30:02 PM #44:	@SiO4 I definitely recommend War Horse (yes, there are 'onion peeling' moments) and They Shall Not Grow Old (some uncanny valley moments but hey- what can you do with 100+ year old film) --- And Fred Kelly as Bunny <cite>matteus70 posted [p:932305854] in 1917 movie...

The fact that it's not being advertised as a one shot, and the trailers don't make it look like one, shows that its not just a gimmick. It's done to tell the story, namely the horror of war and the uncertainty around it. It's by far my most anticipated movie of 2020 _BIueMonk posted... how do they do these one shot movies anyway? is it truely all done in one take, or do they use special effects to hide the cuts? You hide the cuts with fast camera movements and other tricks. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all <cite>I Like Toast posted [p:932306383] in 1917 movie...

I do not disagree with you Toast. They actually come out and mention some of the cuts, in some of the prerelease videos. By one take, they meant, real-time. There is no way a film like this could be done in one take.
