A Very Long Engagement (1 Viewer)

It was probably discussed here before but I couldn't find the post. My daughter and I watched it (me for the second time) and really enjoyed it. This time I got all the connections and who was who in the plot. What I liked was that the film is "gear" intensive to cars, trains, aircraft, gadgets, and the trenches of WW I. When an escaped balloon strikes a bomb there's a cutaway animation of the detonator firing within the bomb. Any WW I buffs out there may be able to comment on authenticity.

Some sex but my 14 year old could handle it as well as some graphic war scenes. Jodie Foster speaking French as well.

I enjoyed this show. as well. It has been a while since I have seen it but as I remember it, it was very accurate in equipment terms. -- Al

Yes, this is a good movie. I like the end and how she finds him through a Poirot-like investigation...

A movie just about the woman who assassinates the officers would be "fun" as well. That part reminded me slightly of the Oliver Reed /Diana Rigg movie, The Assassination Bureau.
