    ABOUT 1917
    Set at the height of the First World War, 1917 centers on two young British soldiers, Schofield (Captain Fantastic’s George MacKay) and Blake (Game of Thrones’ Dean-Charles Chapman), who are given a seemingly impossible mission. In a race against time, they must cross enemy territory and deliver a message that will stop a deadly attack on hundreds of soldiers-Blake’s own brother among them.

    The magic of this piece is the way he pivots around that giant augmented chord. He'll strike you with it, move to a minor chord with the same root, and move through the progression but inevitably you end up back at that augmented chord with the big dynamics. It perfectly embodies the scene, being that it sounds beautiful, almost celestial, whilst simultaneously sounding unsettling and terrifying. It's like an anti resolve. This song is absolutely perfect for this scene. A masterpiece indeed.

    This scene was nothing short of enthralling. Surreal. Dream-like because of the genius of long takes allowing you to enjoy the visceral scenery of the shadow and light work. I also thought of how you feel when you're extremely tired, things just don't seem "real" in a sense, and you feel like you're floating. Explains why Schofield was just standing there like an idiot while a German was in plain sight in front of him. He was just unaware of reality. That's exactly how it felt to me.

    I've been in WW1 museums in Ypres and Paschendaele, Belgium with a friend. We've walked in the trenches. We smelled samples of the variety of gasses. Read stories that not even birds and insects survived the gasbombs. We've seen examples of underground shelters. We've seen old bomb craters. And even the spirits still haunt the place.
    My buddy woke up in the middle of the night in the hotel because he heared a morse code.
    This movie, but this scene in particular, exhausted, running through ruins, lit by flashlights while dodging German bullets, it's exactly how I imagined it in the museums. How it must have been like when Ypres got obliterated and ruined. Tears of awe seeing all that coming together in the movie 1917.
    A true masterpiece!

    While the trenches and everything before this scene seemed on a grand scale, it being just Blake and Schofield made also for a bit of intimacy. I’m a student of history but not all history films are masterpieces in my eyes, so while I thought 1917 was indeed great, I did not consider it a masterpiece.
    Then came this scene with the star shells and this part of the score, and the movie felt truly epic to me in scope. The film transcended greatness and became a masterpiece for me. The climax was riveting and one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in a film, but it was THIS night scene that had me say “ok, this is no longer a question of, ‘where does this film rank among 2019 movies? but of ‘where does this rank all-time?’ which wonderfully set the stage for that mind-blowing finale.

    This soundtrack, this piece of music brings out so many feelings that are so in tune with the film. It’s unbelievable.
    The mysterious feel behind the opening of this score, especially as Schofield and Blake climb from the crater approaching the German front line after crossing no man’s land. That suspense, the eerie quietness from over that peak made even more eerie and mysterious by that single instrument. Then the big approach and that run up over the top, rifles drawn and fear stricken, the orchestra playing on full for that grand entrance into…..nothingness. An empty trench. Abandoned fox holes and tunnels.
    I’m 30 years old and Saving Private Ryan has been my favourite film since 14-15 years old. Half my life. 1917 took over that spot for me and everybody here knows why. You cannot recreate that feeling, every time I watch this film I watch in suspense and this score is just so unbelievably good. As someone else said. What a masterpiece.

    I search up “best move soundtracks” on UA-cam, and this isn’t there. It’s just the big Blockbuster movie scores that get bored and too comical. This score, however, is the exact opposite. From the gradual increase in pitch, to the constant change in genre. This score, along with the actual movie scene, makes you feel terrified at what happened to the village, but then again, it brings along this kind of tone that makes you appreciate the bright light, I suppose. Magnificent
