Saw this movie today. Visually beautiful, everything is good but though the movie ties up the lives of the men involved at some level, in other ways there is no closure or purpose for the movie. Still well done and worth seeing, especially if you're a WW2 or 1930s/40s buff. Costumes were terrific.
I am currently reading E.B. Sledge's "With the Old Breed" It is quite good.
