Apparently the original script of this said that he walks toward the singing voice and sits among the soldiers because he thinks he’s already dead. Makes the scene carry more weight in my mind
It kind of came across that way. The idea that this incongruous beauty in the midst of all the death and destruction he’s witnessed might be how he crosses over, and his disappointment at not being able to complete his mission (not to mention the heartbreak of leaving his family behind) is tempered by the relief that he’s finally gotten some rest.
That static shot of him leaned against the tree with the soldiers in the foreground, he did look like a dead body with resting men around. It's honestly beautiful.
This scene was so beautiful but what sadden me the most was when the camera panned and you saw that these soldiers were all just a bunch of young lads, practically kids and it reminds you that we lost a whole generation of them to that damn war, just heartbreaking.
@Joseph Mainville mid 1917, there weren't as many suicidal battleplans by then, the Hindenburg line saw to that. I mean the chances of surviving the war were better in 1917 and 1918 than any year previous. Despite the death by artillery, sniper, stupid glory seeking officers and commando raids. Oh and the gas, I forgot about the gas.
Darryl Bowman Nothing. For me of course it mean’s nothing it’s just a throwaway of people’s lives, That’s just the way I look at it, some people might beg to differ, some people might say the same.
One of the heaviest hitting movie scenes .The desperation , the tiredness , the weight of the journey , the pain , the desire to rest but the knowledge that thousands of lives depend on you continuing your quest and the almost ethereal mixture of a well timed song and a silent forest after seeing a loved one die , fighting many foes , so many times almost losing your Life and the wondering if you will have the strength .So much . A cinematic masterpiece .
@@mdlamerica2754 but what determines the “end” of the war? Depending on the tide of battle, what seems like the end could be just the beginning. In fact that’s the entire plot of the movie.
My grandfather was killed in this war in this same year 1917. I have a photo of him and my grandmother on their wedding day, both young and beautiful, unaware of what was to come. When I was a young boy in the 1960s she told me once she still missed him.
My great grand father was mobilized the 2nd August 1914. By the 1st October 1914, he was dead, leaving his wife (24 years) with two young daughters to rise. In April 1917 his young brother was also killed during Chemin des Dames offensive.
When you watch a movie, and come across a scene like this, where you genuinely don’t know how to describe what you feel, it is a rare gem of cinema. Am I happy? Am I sad? Am I hopeful? Am I depressed? I DON’T FREAKING KNOW!!!
I wish they included this performance instead of the studio one because it's so much more raw and the sound of the woods just puts you right back at that spot of peace.
Imo it almost like he died in the river with those dead bodies, washed up on shore and sat amongst with other soldiers to this angelic song only to be wakened from his stupor
It also represents something as the rest of the movie is a Christian allegory. At the start we see our protagonist awakening by the tree of knowledge, given a partner and a mission, and anointed (sarcastically) by the sergeant on duty in the trenches. They then travel the lone and dreary world of no man's land, have a Cain slaying Abel moment with the German pilot, and descend into an ever worse world in the burning village where he meets a virgin caring for a newborn child which he brings gifts for. Then comes the river drowning "baptism" representing death and rebirth from out of the bodies along the shore, into a Sunday service hymn before the battle and a final message that initially wasn't desired (likely "the word of God") by the general, and a rest at the end of his journey by the tree of life after meeting the Healer being the eldest brother in the field hospital lamenting the souls that were lost.
After hearing the angelic lyrics and voice of the sole soldier, immedietly you hear others clapping but is soon shunned by the gathered claking of metal and rifles, and shouting. The war still rages on around them, there is no time in war.
Every single scene is a classic. Every little moment is a masterpiece. Thank you Sam Mendes and the whole team; 1917 will always be Best Picture of 2019... at least for me. (I also respect other great films of 2019 as well; no shade or hate. Peace.)
I love how they casted a bunch of actual 18 year old kids to be the soldiers. Hollywood and the like have had us believe that soldiers in the great wars were these buff, gruffy 30 year old dudes, but the reality is that the vast majority of fighting soldiers were teenagers.
This and The Running Scene are my favorite scene from This Great War Classic film of 2020. Very Chilling and Emotional song In this scene 1917 is Bar far the Best film of 2020 so far.
SPACE MONKEY1102 For some odd reason this movie came out in 2020 in most places For 2019 it was only for a few amount of people, it was worth waiting one more month though
I'm glad to see in this and Dunkirk they are finally casting actual young people for the roles. It really brings everything into perspective when it's teenagers dying like this and not gristled men.
@@anthonydominguez4744 I like your observation. As a hopeless romantic who writes music this scene is gut wrenching because I think about the lives of every young man in this scene, let alone the millions who died with many not even being acknowledged. But Parasite was a masterpiece as well with its own way of story telling, specifically with how it touched on the human phsyce.
My favorite part about this scene that they don't show is the other soldiers helping him at the end. They didn't call him a coward or harass him. They knew as fellow enlisted men what the hell they lived in could do to a man and they helped him through his shock and carried him forward.
Brazilian Kaiser the whole battalion was 1600 men. Thousands didn’t die in the first wave. There are numerous points in this movie that he could have stopped. He kept going despite that.
He put the letter into his tobacco tin which I suppose would have protected it just a bit but apparently the tin had more protection than a damn bunker, not even a damp corner in the paper
@@marsbars84 even in the first world war, some food tins had rubber gaskets. I have a few chocolate tins from the 1920s and late 1910s and two have the dried up remains of little rubber gaskets, so it 100% could be submerged
Very cool to see this and something I wish war movies showed more. There are literally hundreds of thousands of examples of music in the military. Beautiful.
An amazing and eerie song to ease the men of the probable death they knew was just ahead... to reassure themselves they are passing from a warring world to heaven with their family in a short moment. Such a powerful and intense experience for anyone at that time and for any of us to look back on the fragility of life.
My Great Grandfather survived the last 18 months of that war, serving in the Canadian Army. Its why the Greenfields of France is a song that resonates in my soul. The War to End all Wars, is a testament to the hubris of humanity. I pray my son never has to serve in war, but I suspect he may very well follow in my footsteps, his great grandfather’s and great great grandfathers as well.
I went to the Summit Trench and Croisilles Railway Cemeteries last weekend. The youngest soldier in these cemeteries was 17, the oldest 40. Heartbreaking.
Apparently Sam Mendes intended for Schofield to be thinking that he died and that he is among dead soldiers in the woods, he realized he was still alive when he found out where his objective was.
That's very sad and haunting at the same time. World War I soldiers in this scene are just kids and teens. Hardly any of them looked like they were in their 20's or 30's. That's so depressing.
I was half-baked late at night when I watched this, suddenly this scene pops up and I felt the same amount of relief these young boys probably had before the oncoming storm genuinely beautiful.
This movie was beyond good. But this scene was something else. The singing and all those soldiers having a moment of peace and solitude before going back too the trenches and face possible death.
At a place similar to this where a huge number of Welsh men died in a small area during ww1 a visitor to the site during day time heard a voice behind him say "we're still here"' turned around there was nobody there....
Sometimes I will sit outside while smoking a cig and just sit there and remember my life while playing this song. I can picture my brothers standing and sitting around my table and non of them say a word. We just sit and listen
During the American civil war this song was often called the Libby prison hymn after a union soldier wrote these words on the wall of the Libby prison camp right before he died which makes it so much deeper now that you know that a young lad wrote this knowing his life was about to end.
I really like how these soldiers historical accurately look so young in their 20s and teens. Contrast to other movies, saving private ryan for an example, who would portray the soldiers looking like 30 or 40 year olds
I think the coolest part of the sounds design here is right after he sings, it sounds like people are clapping before you realize that’s actually just the sound of the soldiers standing up with all their gear on. It highlights just how unfair war is because that should have been sung on a stage to an audience who would applaud him, but war has turner the singer and their audience into soldiers.
I'm learning a song on my guitar and I recognized it. I was like wait a minute this sounds like the song from 1917. It's such a mournful song I'm glad to be learning this one in my lessons.
My high school history teacher hammered it into us students that many of the soldiers fighting in the Great War were no older than we were. But it wasn’t until I saw this scene that what he said really sank in for me. Just the thought of kids the same age as my oldest nephew killing each other brings a tear to my eye.
Don’t make memes and jokes from the pain and death of millions. Plz, put yourself in they’re shoes for just a second and know try to understand the amount of pain they went through.
this scene is very sad , sorry to all those people that didn't make it home. by they way the song hes singing is johnny cash, just thought Id let you know
The year is 1918, the Great War is done. In the tavern, many a man and many a woman, celebrate the victory. Men gather 'round with joy and cheer, and drinks a run, As the women gossip and prattle, most of long story, And children laugh and play out in evening air. The townspeople are joyous and fair and light of heart. But one does not take part in the affair, A young woman, though old for her thirty-three years, sits apart, Silently sitting away in the darkened corner, The woman gazing longingly in a photo, as tears silently strike wood. The loving faces of her husband and three sons stare back at her. Her husband died in the Somme, her youngest at Belleau Wood, The oldest fell in the Siege of Antwerp, and middle fell in the retreat from Le Cateau. So let us mourn the husbands and let us mourn the sons, as they shall celebrate no more.
when i first watched this idk if the soldiers there were dead, either ghostified, or real but when he finished singing they started clapping and it fr scared me

hello future people! perhaps even a hello the future me! how did your short story assessment turn out?
That was beautifully haunting. I saw this in theaters with my dad and we were absolutely entranced by that soldier’s singing.
I also saw this in theaters with my father and let’s just say it was very haunting
My parents watched this on Apple TV I didn’t really see but my mom the saddest part is were lance corporal Blake dies
HG C Yep my mom cried so much!!
Same here man, theater was packed and everyone was dead silent. This movie was absolutely unparalleled in its ability to capture your mind completely.
How could you not be?
When I first saw this scene in theaters I wasn’t sure whether the soldiers were real or just ghosts of those who had already perished fighting.
Dude, that's deep
In a way, both are true. Those are the faces of young men before the war. Nothing else about them is truly the same.
I thought it was dead bodies and someone is just singing because he lost his friends
HDimmick13 shutueisksaos

It's such a chilling thought knowing that alot of those men's lives were saved that day by the single battered soldier in the back.

The hardest for me is when he told the brother the news. I didn't cry, but I sure as hell wanted a stiff drink after that.
the last song that many of the men will hear in their lives.

And it was beautiful
when i saw this in theatres, I was whispering this to myself:
"blink...please blink scho...blink please...your almost there"
Same! I really thought he had died and was devastated. So relieved when he blinked.
ikr I straight up thought he had died

One of those moments where you have to keep moving or you'll die right there in the dirt. He came pretty close.

You never thought that in an R rated movie there would be a scene so wholesome
I can watch this scene a million times over. So dreary, yet so peaceful
Sitting in the theater, this scene was when I realized I had been holding my breath the whole time.
As soon as No Man's Land was revealed was the moment all breathing stopped.

oh I didn't know. know that I think about it is dose make more sense. I mean how did the know about the song in the first place right.
The year is 1918, the Great War is done.
In the tavern, many a man and many a woman, celebrate the victory.
Men gather 'round with joy and cheer, and drinks a run,
As the women gossip and prattle, most of long story,
And children laugh and play out in evening air.
The townspeople are joyous and fair and light of heart.
But one does not take part in the affair,
A young woman, though old for her thirty-three years, sits apart,
Silently sitting away in the darkened corner,
The woman gazing longingly in a photo, as tears silently strike wood.
The loving faces of her husband and three sons stare back at her.
Her husband died in the Somme, her youngest at Belleau Wood,
The oldest fell in the Siege of Antwerp, and middle fell in the retreat from Le Cateau.
So let us mourn the husbands and let us mourn the sons, as they shall celebrate no more.
seeing you all in 5 years, until then take care😘
This reminds me of the tracker, a solid singer with a wicked song such as this
when i first watched this idk if the soldiers there were dead, either ghostified, or real but when he finished singing they started clapping and it fr scared me
That was beautifully sung, but it must have been unbearably sad for the men in the audience, who were probably already feeling hopeless.
hard to imagine that these things happend over a hundred years ago. Crazy to think honestly.
this was such a weird scene, he gets away from the Germans by jumping into a river only to find friendlys just down this stream
Well that's how close enemies were to eachother.
A flawless movie.
@America what there's more white soldiers than black? Must be racism 😂
@America I don't believe the Brit army was segregated.
RW:its a relief when you reunite with other familiar faces.😔
