Ballad of a Soldier
In the film Ballad of a soldier the viewer experiences a harsher truth of war. It is hard for me to imagine having to do whatever it takes to make the country a better, safer place, for others. It was a real "eye opener" when I realized that a soldier would be extremely lucky to even say hello to his mother, even if it was for only a minute. I didn't learn to much about war but I have learned to appreciate the time that I get to spend with my family and friends because I can not be to sure that I will see them tomorrow.

I never thought about looking at this film in that way. It is quite an eye opener
ReplyDeleteI agree that it's a film that really can cause us, among other things, to want immediately to call those dearest to us and tell them how much they mean to us--and for us to be grateful to be able to spend more time with them.
