A 1997 film, directed by
Gillies Mackinnon. This is a film about the first World War, and the
consequences of a
British poet's
criticism of the
war after having been awarded a
medal for
bravery including his
commitment to a
mental hospital. The film also illustrates with the various
techniques doctors used to "
cure"
shell shock during the war.
Pseudo Intellectual adds: "you might want to mention that Jonathan Pryce's in it, or that it involves Wilfred Owen and Sigfried Sassoon - real historimacal personnages".
